Yamaha MT-09 2021

The ingredients for the 2021 update are right: More power, more equipment, more electronics, less weight. If you take a look at the key data of the latest MT-09, including its over-complete standard equipment, "mid-range naked bike" almost sounds a bit pejorative. The Japanese engineers have made improvements exactly where they were needed. The swaying chassis is now a thing of the past and the load change reactions have also been eliminated from the revised three-cylinder engine. The additional power paired with a little more pressure in the mid-range gives a sovereign riding feeling. The MT-09 offers a lot of equipment and enormous riding pleasure at a very attractive price. If you like the look, you can buy it without hesitation.

The Aprilia Tuono V4 1100 RR is a prime example of an Italian thoroughbred naked bike with the genes of a genuine superbike world champion motorbike. A powerful V4 engine, brakes to match, transparent front end, supportive electronics, super-sporty design. The Tuono is not for strollers, landscape gazers or rain-mode riders. These people would rather buy a Ferrari.
