Honda CRF450R 2018

Honda CRF450R 2018

Honda has hit the jackpot with the new 2021 CRF450R. Through constant further development, we find a true handling monster with the 2021 model year. Comparisons with the 250 in terms of handling cannot be dismissed out of hand. Thanks to electronic aids, the power delivery is no longer as demanding as on 450s.

Very good handling characteristics

equipped with numerous electronic features

chassis perfectly tuned for the hobby pilot

finally hydraulic clutch

Chassis a little too soft for really fast riders in the basic setting

routing of hydraulic hose coupling

Honda XL750 Transalp 2023

Honda XL750 Transalp 2023

The Transalp had to prove itself in several tests at 1000PS in 2023. Surprisingly, it scored particularly well in the pillion test on Tenerife. Its accessible nature makes motorcycling easy. You can enjoy the ride and the landscape. The machine offers a surprising amount of sportiness with a very accessible character. All in all, the Transalp is a great all-rounder.

Sporty engine that is also very accessible Wonderfully easy-to-operate engine with butter-smooth clutch

Engine feels very revvy

Precise transmission

great comfort and plenty of space for pillion

Sporty engine - yet low fuel consumption

Switches and dashboard are generally robust

Economical engine

good price/performance ratio

great stability

strong practicality

Driver assistance systems have to manage without IMU - therefore very defensive control

Suspension offers too little adjustment range

no cruise control available
