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.
Moto Guzzi V7 Stone 2021
The Italians know exactly how to polish an icon - the V7 Stone also has the characteristic, longitudinally mounted V2 engine with the typical diagonally protruding cylinders. And this model in particular should appeal not only to true Guzzi fans, but also to all those who are looking for a balanced, uncomplicated bike. Although the engine has its typical vibrations, it behaves in a good-natured manner, the suspension is more comfortable than sporty and the riding position also fits the cosy character perfectly. The single disc brake at the front even grips surprisingly well and the overall look is direct to the heart. Only the LCD dashboard looks out of place and modern.
