Pros and Cons in comparison

Suzuki V-Strom 650 XT 2020

The V-Strom 650 XT may be getting on a bit, but it's still a good bike. Especially if you don't need a colour display and don't intend to leave the paved road. The 650 is an easy motorbike to ride and is hardly ever out of its depth. What's more, this model has already proven itself a zillion times over, which underlines its durability and longevity.

Simple, uncomplicated bike

proven technology

good price/performance ratio

Design and equipment are a bit outdated

very limited off-road capability

Yamaha XT660Z Tenere 2010

Other parts make sense even on normal rides and day trips and noticeably improve the bike in small and fine details - but they are not essential.

Low weight compared to the 2-cylinders

relatively fast

high quality Touratech stuff.
