Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R 2022

Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R 2022

With the Ninja ZX-10R, the Greens offer a mature overall package that still looks as aggressive as you would expect from a Kawa superbike. The bike offers surprisingly good space for the rider and you feel comfortable in the saddle, but the high footrests make it clear that it is designed to perform on the race track. The revviness of the engine leaves nothing to be desired - except perhaps more discipline in the partial load range. To make the project a success, Kawasaki relies on high-quality ingredients: Showa suspension, Öhlins steering dampers, Brembo brakes with 330 discs and high-quality electronics. The Ninja ZX-10R even cuts a fine figure on the country road thanks to the good electronics and the superior engine - as long as you are able to suffer a little when it comes to the seating position.

Yamaha MT-09 2022

Yamaha MT-09 2022

Yes, Yamaha has produced a really leiwandes bike. All the criticisms of its predecessor have been successfully revised without neutering the wild and playful nature of the MT-09. The fourth generation is more mature, more precise and more polished, rides more neutrally and is more stable without losing its light-footedness. A marvellous bike that currently offers an almost unbeatable price-performance ratio thanks to many detail improvements and has now even become really pretty. The Yamaha dealers won't be able to save themselves from orders after test rides. Let's hope that availability is guaranteed, because the new MT-09 is the definition of the word "direct hit"!

powerful acceleration in every situation / potent engine

aggressive but not too loud sound

improved ergonomics for more feedback and confidence

very good brakes

lavish basic options

precise chassis with good everyday tuning

nice display, good operation

extremely good price-performance ratio

no windscreen

fiddly indicator function
