Pros and Cons in comparison

Pros and Cons in comparison

Honda X-ADV 2017

Honda X-ADV 2017

With the X-ADV, Honda was very brave and took the plunge. The idea of an off-road scooter is a completely new one, but the idea has worked. The appearance of the X-ADV is powerful and gives you the feeling that it can go anywhere. The propulsion is also right. The DCT transmission works excellently with the two-cylinder and makes the Honda X-ADV an excellent all-round scooter.

perfectly functioning DCT transmission

high-quality chassis components for road and off-road

functional and easy-to-read display

eye-catching look that you don't see at every corner

In the scooter class, small storage space under the seat

very wide handlebar - distracting when jostling in city traffic

very wide between the legs in the footwell

gearbox / clutch dosage when starting off good but not perfect

compared to other scooters, high-maintenance chain drive.

BMW C 600 Sport 2013

BMW C 600 Sport 2013

If you have only bought the C 600 Sport as an everyday machine, you can go on a big trip with your mates without any problems. Together with the Yamaha T-Max, it is still the "least evil" in terms of looks when you're out with scooter-hostile bikers. Uphill over the mountain passes? Unfortunately a miscast.

Very fast movement

mechanically adjustable windscreen

comfortable

spacious storage.

High overall weight

weak engine compared to the competition.
