Suzuki V-Strom 650 XT 2023

The V-Strom 650 XT may be getting on a bit, but it's still a good bike. Especially if you don't need a colour display and don't intend to leave the paved road. The 650 is an easy motorbike to ride and is hardly ever out of its depth. What's more, this model has already proven itself a zillion times over, which underlines its durability and longevity.

Simple, uncomplicated bike

CFMOTO 700CL-X 2023

CFMOTO 700CL-X 2023

CFMOTO shows once again that you can't go wrong with very good workmanship, accessible rideability and good to very good equipment. Add to this the attractive price and the powerful sound - the established scrambler competition will have to ask themselves why their slush-road hybrids sometimes cost considerably more.

super sound

cool looks
