It is not the absolute best choice for city commuting because it is designed more for comfortable cruising on highways and open roads. However, some riders enjoy using it in the city due to its classic style and comfortable riding position. If you prefer a cruiser-style motorcycle and don't mind its larger size, it can work for city riding. But if you're dealing with heavy traffic and lots of stop-and-go situations, you might find smaller and more nimble bikes better suited for city commuting. So, while it can handle city streets, it's most at home on open roads and highways where you can enjoy a relaxed ride.
