Honda CB 1000 R 2021

The 1-litre version of the Neo Sport Cafe Racer shows that it doesn't always have to be the golden mean. In all honesty, it has to be said that the largest of all the representatives also feels the most "grown-up". The electronic equipment of the 1000 in the + version leaves almost nothing to be desired and the handling is extremely rider-friendly for this class. Playfully easy cornering with a well-tuned chassis, snappy brakes and low weight seem to be the recipe for success in terms of smoothness. In terms of performance, the CB1000R+ unfortunately has to make concessions. With 145 hp, the Honda is not a brute rocket, but it is all the more controllable for it. And 145 hp with a full tank of 213 kg is more than enough for maximum riding pleasure on country roads!
Triumph Street Triple S 2018

Clean responsiveness, great sound and a driving position - the Street Triple S offers a comfortable yet sporty riding experience. The naked bike rides with exceptional precision and agility and offers a lot of comfort, even on longer rides, where you can also enjoy the large 17.4-litre fuel tank. The electronic throttle control ensures precise response and makes it possible to set different riding modes. We also found the comparatively low vibrations for a triple and the pleasant geometry of the vehicle positive. Compared to the other bikes in the test and its two siblings, the R and RS, the chassis is a little lax - but the ingenious, husky roaring three-cylinder sound was convincing and definitely made our hearts beat faster!
