Pros and Cons in comparison

Pros and Cons in comparison

BMW F 900 R 2023

BMW F 900 R 2023

The BMW F 900 R is a full-grown motorbike. 895 cc, 105 hp and 92 Nm smell of versatility. The F 900 R fulfils this promise completely. The motorbike, including electronics and components, does a great job in every situation. But of all things, the heart of the bike, the engine and transmission unit, does not shine in premium gloss.

Great cockpit and functional connectivity

Extensive electronics can be operated logically

Very accessible but still very casual handling

Motorcycle rides bland and reserved but also wild and sporty when needed

Pleasant seating position

Wide choice of equipment and configuration options

Low and high seat options available

Suspension allows wide range of use - comfortable but also direct and precise.

Gearstick a little stiff - with and without quickshifter

Engine runs a little rough and exudes little elegance at the top

Poor splash guard at the rear

Kawasaki Ninja ZX-4RR 2024

Kawasaki Ninja ZX-4RR 2024

The mere fact that the Kawa Ninja ZX-4RR with its high-revving Inline four-cylinder engine in bonsai format has no real competition makes it absolutely unique. The engine is also the absolute flagship, with a rev limit at 16,000 touring you'll be addicted to wind out a gear! The suspension, brakes and electronics are of a high height, but what is more surprising is that, despite all the sportiness, the bike is still very suitable for everyday use - the seating position is not as radical as on other supersports bikes.

Fun in-line four-cylinder

precise quickshifter with blipper

balanced handling

sporty and pleasant ergonomics

comprehensive electronics package

Engine needs to be kept happy

looks confusing with other Kawasakis
