Suzuki V-Strom 650 2012
Like the Kawasaki Versys, the small V-Strom is getting on a bit. The 1000 is so well done and easy to ride that you should consider taking the "big one" right away. In terms of versatility, however, the 650 is in no way inferior to the big V-Strom, and at a much lower price. But we wouldn't take it to the racetrack any more. And of course it has to cope with a heavy load more than a motorbike with 100+ hp.
Brixton Cromwell 1200 2022
Brixton aims high with the Cromwell 1200! Exactly 1222 cubic metres of displacement are available in an in-line two-cylinder engine that delivers 82 hp and a tidy 108 Newton metres of torque at just 3100 revs - and behave really well in ECO mode. The components all come from renowned manufacturers, but are of varying quality. The KYB suspension is typically lax, while the Nissin brakes and Bosch electronics are convincing. Visually, the Brixton is only basically oriented towards the class of the big retro bikes, but it takes a refreshingly independent approach to design. The equipment does not need to hide from the competition, but there is still room for improvement when it comes to operation (change of riding mode, cruise control). The seating position again corresponds to the basic idea in this category - comfort counts more than sport. The Brixton Cromwell 1200 is an inexpensive addition to the class!
