Moto Guzzi V100 Mandello 2023

Moto Guzzi V100 Mandello 2023

The cheaper alternative to the V100 S has many of the good features of its luxury sister and comes with the visually more interesting rims. A successful sports tourer that stands out from the crowd without showing Italian capers. The suspension is too tight for a touring bike, but otherwise it is hard to find a fly in the ointment.

Confident V2 powerplant with typical Guzzi vibrations

excellent Brembo brakes

comfortable seating position

electrically adjustable windshield

unique flaps for weather protection of the centre of the body

good handling

classy look.

Chassis tuning too tight for a touring motorbike

high heat generation in city mode

Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 2019

Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 2019

While the Continental GT 650 is not a completely new model visually (there is already the Conti GT 535), an Interceptor 650 with a two-cylinder engine is now coming onto the market for the first time in almost 50 years. The styling therefore skilfully reflects the flair of the 1960s, while the technology is up to date. You won't find any electronic features, but the parallel twin-cylinder engine with 48 hp and 53 Newton metres of torque is surprisingly agile and the handling is very neutral. The Brembo brake is also pleasing with good dosing and the Pirelli tyres do not show any weaknesses. The seating position is very comfortable, so if you don't want to ride your Interceptor 650 so sportily, you can cruise comfortably - it can do that very well too.

Agile and refined powerplant

cool two-cylinder sound

comfortable seating position

stable handling

good brakes

successful old school look

classic round instruments

reasonable price.

ABS not quite sensitive

no electronic features - in case anyone needs them...
