Pros and Cons in comparison

Suzuki GSX-8S 2023

Suzuki GSX-8S 2023

For years, Suzuki was the brand that offered nice bikes at a good price/performance ratio. With the Suzuki GSX-8S, the brand is much more self-confident. It presents itself as high-quality, mature and places itself at the top of a hard-fought class. The unspectacular performance data and the relatively high weight tarnish the picture only briefly. During the test rides, the Suzuki was completely convincing. A really good motorbike.

Full-grown and high-quality overall concept

high-torque engine

first-class running culture, stable handling, overall very high-quality impression

Very good seat

Great nakedbike riding position

Good and precise quickshifter

high-quality controls

very good display

Suspension offers reserves for a wide range of uses despite lack of adjustment options

Good ergonomics

Quickshifter and gearstick require a little more operating force than usual

Motorbike somewhat heavier than other bikes in this class

ABS controls very defensively

Engine has no rev reserves upwards

KTM 450 EXC-F 2023

KTM 450 EXC-F 2023

The KTM 450 EXC 2025 impresses as a reliable enduro bike all-rounder that scores particularly well on longer rides with its smooth and powerful engine characteristics.

wide torque curve forgives many riding errors

always clean reponsiveness

the engine easily shakes the power out of its sleeve and is never really challenged. Hard-working riders who put in long hours will probably be happier with it than with the more radical 250cc or 350cc models

smooth, quiet power delivery

comparatively low fuel consumption

practical maintenance intervals

good traction

pleasantly controllable engine brake

The engine heats up quickly on very slow sections

slightly more demanding on downhill sections than the small displacements or 2-Strokes

sound is a little too intrusive in sensitive regions

tedious throttling requires new mapping in the ECU
