GASGAS SM 700 2023

The powerful single cylinder still brings a grin to the rider's face. The tighter the radii become, the better the SM 700 works, and the sporty suspension offers performance when ripping a corner rather than comfort on long journeys. The GasGas is a great example of the appeal of focussing on the essentials. A real fun machine, it's great that something like this is still being built.

Even in 2021, the Kawasaki Z 650 stands for easy riding with great looks and good equipment. Both seat height and engine are very accessible and will give both experienced riders and newcomers a lot of pleasure. If you are looking for an honest naked bike without any big surprises, this is the bike for you. Due to its compact dimensions, however, you should try it out before buying and perhaps go for the raised seat.

accessible two-cylinder

compact dimensions

low seat height

stable chassis

TFT display with connectivity

grown-up look

Probably uncomfortable for tall riders

adrenaline level in the saddle lower than with the competition
