Yamaha MT-10 SP 2020

Yamaha MT-10 SP 2020

The Yamaha MT-10 SP inspires with a high degree of perfection combined with a truckload of emotion. Rarely do Japanese manufacturers manage to penetrate so deeply into the domain of the Europeans. The bike rides very nastily when needed, but can also be used quite civilly in city traffic. On top of that, the electronically adjustable Öhlins suspension offers a lot of riding comfort. All in all, an outstanding all-rounder that can do much more than just look bad.

Great sound - not loud, but always charismatic

high-quality chassis and suspension

pleasant wind protection

surprisingly comfortable seating position

great response from engine

Quickshifter 2020 already better with other manufacturers

high consumption

Ducati Streetfighter V4 S 2021

Ducati Streetfighter V4 S 2021

The problem of the Streetfighter V4 S with Euro4 engine, namely no power in the lower rev range but explosion in the upper rev range, has been largely rectified with the update to Euro5. Although the disgusting 208 hp are still only available at 13,000 rpm, the SF V4 S now also works acceptably at lower revs. The electronic Öhlins suspension is at its best and the brute Brembo Stylema stoppers again celebrate the penchant for the racetrack. Ergonomics and handling are also basically good, but on the racetrack you would wish for lower handlebars because of the awesome power. A perfect poser bike that also works on the country road, and on the racetrack anyway. Only the too-loud sound should be curbed a little.

The most powerful naked bike ever

good ergonomics

superb, electronically adjustable Öhlins suspension

brute Brembo Stylema brakes

full electronics package

handsome, distinctive look.
