Kawasaki Z 400 2019

The Kawasaki Z400 is definitely a great evolution of its predecessor, the Z300. More power, less weight - all around, simply an even better bike. Above all, the linear power delivery and excellent handling make the Z400 an ideal entry-level bike. The ease of clutch operation and good chassis set-up are also in this vein, which is why the Z400 can be recommended to novice riders without hesitation.

Triumph Speed 400 2024

Triumph Speed 400 2024

The Speedy 400 is a really smart A2-class naked bike at a low price. The engine could be a little more agile, but the small Speed 400 offers a nice torque plateau in the mid-range. Thanks to its low weight, the handling is perfectly fine and the suspension offers an appropriate compromise between comfort and sport - with a tendency towards comfort. Although the brakes only have one disc at the front, they are really effective. Finally, the electronics also score points, with even a disengageable traction control system on board.
