Honda VFR 1200 F 2010

Like the other Honda models in the test, the VFR is also convincing on the brakes and has no weaknesses when it comes to safety. It's just a shame that you have to refuel every 300 kilometres.

Mechanical dual-clutch transmission

incomparable acceleration feel

sporty driving style

sophisticated technology.

Extremely high consumption of urine.

Suzuki SV650X 2018

Suzuki SV650X 2018

Retro is trendy, retro is cool. The people at Suzuki have also recognised this, and although they are not launching many new products for 2018, they are launching a really cool one - the SV650X. Not much had to be changed to place it in the ranks of modern cafe racers: Headlight fairing, paintwork, side panels, saddle and low handlebar ends are enough for the great result. Above all, the front-wheel-oriented seating position suits it well, but does not make it significantly more uncomfortable. The suspension can only be adjusted at the rear, but the lively engine is a blast and the price is right.

Agile, lively and charismatic V2 engine

easy handling, easy to ride despite low handlebars

pleasant seating position with low saddle height

successful gear graduation

low weight

inconspicuous appearance

exhaust look

telescopic fork too soft

no anti-hopping clutch
