Pros and Cons in comparison

Piaggio Beverly 400 S 2021

The Piaggio Beverly 400S for 2021 is noticeably stronger and visually more mature. The everyday hero can cope with tight city traffic just as well as with brisk country road kilometres and occasional motorway excursions. If you can do without a colour TFT display, the Beverly 400 is a fun scooter at a fair price.

powerful engine

good chassis

easy to handle

suitable for motorways

price-performance ratio

LC display greyed out

operation not perfect

Yamaha MT-03 2021

The MT-03 remains Yamaha's most accessible and pragmatic Hyper Naked in the segment. It scores with its low seat height, the easily controllable power of the two-cylinder and at the same time offers enough comfort for commuters. What it may lack in sportiness, it makes up for in comfort, making it perfect for people looking for a well-functioning motorbike with a brutal look. However, you shouldn't be too big, and you shouldn't aspire to keep up with the other models in the MT range at the angle - because that's not what it was designed for. The 2020 model year is thus a coherent update that is sure to make its buyers happy.

Easily controlled power

low seat height

easy to ride

low fuel consumption

neatly readable LC display

aggressive look

acute knee angle for tall people

soft chassis compared to other Yamaha MT models

not necessarily the most emotional motorbike
