Pros and Cons in comparison

Kawasaki Z 800 2015

Kawasaki Z 800 2015

Overall, the Z800 delivered a sensational performance. Considering the fact that nothing was changed or optimised on the vehicle apart from the Remus rear silencer, a super final result.

Eye-catching, chunky look

confident acceleration

relaxed geometry

powerful brakes

Limited freedom of movement for the legs.

Triumph Tiger Explorer 2014

Triumph Tiger Explorer 2014

The three-cylinder lacks a little pressure from the rev range, but it revs and shrieks out of the top like a three-headed hellhound. The XC version in particular is a real man's bike with a lot of power and mass.

Powerful and lively engine

comfortable chassis

high weight
