Pros and Cons in comparison

Yamaha Tracer 9 GT+ 2024

The Yamaha Tracer 9 GT+ impresses as a modern crossover bike with innovative technology, a powerful three-cylinder engine and a high level of riding comfort. It is aimed at riders who value riding pleasure, advanced Rider Assistance Systems and touring suitability. Minor weaknesses in the operating concept and a high price tarnish the overall picture slightly, without detracting from the positive overall impression.

Fun, revvy engine

Agile handling

Top quickshifter

Practical touring features

Well-functioning adaptive cruise control, which is a pleasure to use in practice

Huge, easy-to-read TFT display

Good operation of the electronics.

Vibrations on the footrests

very cumbersome navi integration into the display

filigree-looking windscreen that wobbles noticeably at high speeds

three-cylinder sound sometimes too intrusive for sensitive riders

Honda CRF1100L Africa Twin Adventure Sports 2024

The development of the Honda Africa Twin Adventure Sports away from a high-legged off-road bike to a touring bike with a 19-inch front wheel will be a step in the right direction for most Adventure Sports customers. The majority of them ride mainly on paved roads and are happy about better handling, more stability and confidence when leaning and more accessible thanks to the lower seat height. The electronics and DCT have also been fine-tuned in the background, which means that the new Adventure Sports does a lot of things right. Despite these changes, you don't have to do without off-road passages. Even with the smaller wheel and shorter suspension travel, the Adventure Sports remains ready for adventure.

Superbly responsive, now even more torquey engine

Bassier sound than before

Semi-active suspension as standard

Finely controllable brakes

19-inch front wheel and wider tyres raise cornering performance to a new level

Lower seat height makes the mighty Adventure Sports more accessible

Good wind protection

Tough off-road terrain now more difficult to master

riders over 1.85 m get loud turbulence on the helmet even in the highest windshield position

5 kg more on the ribs than before
