Pros and Cons in comparison

Honda CBR500R 2014

Honda CBR500R 2014

Supersport and everyday utility are two extremes that can only be combined in a compromise that only partially satisfies both sides. Honda has decided to pay more attention to everyday use and to make the CBR500R as accessible and rideable as possible. Visually, it looks sharper than it is, but fun is still not neglected because Honda always pays attention to quality and a harmonious set-up. A good choice for A2 riders and all those for whom 48 hp is enough.

The Kawasaki Ninja ZX-6R is a perfectly sized supersport motorbike. With its 130 hp, sporty but controlled riding is possible. The shorter gearing and the 36cc extra displacement ensure that you can be a bit lazier on the road. A worthy flag-waver for the 600cc supersport segment.

Great engine with a great mix of revving and torque

supersport pleasure with lively handling - but still no ascetic feeling in the saddle

well responsive fork and decent, adjustable chassis.

Some details could do with more finesse - number plate holder and indicators!

The overall silhouette is not sporty enough. The sporty bike could do with more aggressiveness.
