Pros and Cons in comparison

Husqvarna 701 Enduro 2017

The Husqvarna 701 Enduro can really do a lot. It rides Hardenduro sections and is a faithful companion in everyday life. On the one hand it is reliable and suitable for everyday use, but on the other hand it is much more radical than "normal" motorbikes. On fast passages, you miss a bit of stability and wind protection / riding comfort. All in all, however, it can do more than the brochure promises.

Extremely powerful and fascinating single-cylinder engine

indestructible and high-quality chassis

hard enduro use possible

awesome wheelie machine.

High seat height, front brake a little too weakly dimensioned for hard road use

unstable at high speeds.

Yamaha XSR900 2023

The Yamaha XSR900 is a sporty retro bike with a powerful three-cylinder engine and modern electronics such as lean angle-dependent traction control and cornering ABS. It impresses with its stability, agile handling and firm suspension, although it does let bumps through on longer stages. It is ideal for lovers of sporty bikes with retro charm.
