Suzuki GSX-R 1000 2020

Suzuki GSX-R 1000 2020

Suzuki has done a great job with the GSX-R 1000 2017. A super-strong motorbike with a fabulously smooth torque curve. Actually unbelievable at 202 hp! The chassis is of high quality and the electronics package has no tinsel but delivers top performance.

High-revving engine

no dents in torque curve

Super stable on corner exit and radius

Great quickshifter

High-quality chassis

Terrific on fast tracks.

Engine brake not adjustable

Kawasaki Z900 2020

Kawasaki Z900 2020

In terms of price-performance, the Kawasaki Z900 is hard to beat at the moment. With the perfectly tuned engine, the high-quality chassis components and the electronics added for 2020, this naked bike offers everything that sporty riders will be looking for. There is really nothing to complain about, even if the option of a quickshifter would have been a nice extra. Apart from that: great shot, Kawasaki!

powerful four-cylinder

great handling

good equipment

aggressive looks

value for money

Menu navigation somewhat tiring

missing quickshifter option
