Kawasaki Z650 2022

Kawasaki Z650 2022

Even in 2021, the Kawasaki Z 650 stands for easy riding with great looks and good equipment. Both seat height and engine are very accessible and will give both experienced riders and newcomers a lot of pleasure. If you are looking for an honest naked bike without any big surprises, this is the bike for you. Due to its compact dimensions, however, you should try it out before buying and perhaps go for the raised seat.

KTM 125 Duke 2022

KTM 125 Duke 2022

Even in the Euro 5 version, the KTM Duke 125 is the motorbike to beat in the A1 class. Superior equipment, potent engine, good chassis, great display and fun Supermoto mode make not only the heart of 16-year-olds beat faster. The looks polarise, but let the observer clearly recognise the smallest Duke as such. The Duke 125 is not cheap, but it is worth the price.

lively engine

super-agile handling

Supermoto mode as standard

mature chassis

top brakes

sharp TFT display

connectivity (optional)

Optics not to everyone's taste

price high for a 125cc bike
