Pros and Cons in comparison
Yamaha XSR900 2016
The XSR900 combines the performance of a sporty streetfighter with the look of a pleasing, cleanly finished retro naked bike. In doing so, the Japanese make use of their own history, which can be found bundled and without gaps in the archive of the design agency that has been working for Yamaha for 60 years. It adopts the virtues of the MT-09 and has mended some of its weaknesses. It rides more harmoniously, more controlled and, if desired, more relaxed. Only the comfort, and thus the rider, suffers from the tight chassis on bad roads. You have to be a little bit sensitive when it comes to a neo-classic.
Triumph Speed Triple 1200 RS 2023
Triumph has created an incredibly good all-rounder with the new Speed Triple 1200 RS. The engine can be moved very comfortably at low revs. The vehicle is very accessible when needed and inspires confidence. However, anyone who puts the spurs to the compact-looking motorbike reaps cruel acceleration and hard braking. The chassis is quite tight overall - as a result, it loses a little of its accessibility.
