Pros and Cons in comparison

Kawasaki ER-6n 2011

You won't find such a coherent package with such fine details anywhere else at this price. The ER-6n has become a little sharper again, both visually and dynamically, and is more fun than ever.

ABS

wider handlebars

slimmer waist

increased intake noise

comfortable seat

uncomplicated chassis.

None

Yamaha MT-07 2015

Even after three years, the Yamaha MT-07 is still a public favourite. No one else beats such a price-performance ratio. The two-cylinder engine is powerful, but can be dosed very gently at low revs. The display is also one of the best in this class, with good readability. Only the chassis is disappointing. In a sporty riding style, it is simply too soft, which can cause the MT-07 to sway.

great motor

easy to read display

low price

Chassis too soft
