Kawasaki Z900 SE 2022

Kawasaki Z900 SE 2022

The SE is a worthy further development of the already very sporty and good-natured Kawasaki Z900. But now sporty owners can also do fast laps on trackdays without making any major compromises. The components from Öhlins and Brembo bring real added value, so that the only thing missing is the quickshifter.

powerful engine

high-quality chassis components

strong brake

good ergonomics

easy handling on the racetrack

missing quickshifter

Yamaha MT-09 SP 2024

Yamaha MT-09 SP 2024

The Yamaha MT-09 SP already had it easy in the previous generation, as it is the even more refined version of an already really good, because wonderfully agile fun machine! The current SP version is no different, but it has been improved even further. A little more power, increased torque and better-tuned electronics make it even more fun. As expected, the suspension with classier KYB and Öhlins components works excellently, the brakes could be a little sharper, but the seating position is still what you would expect from such an agile and easily controllable fun machine. The few quirks like the small TFT display or the controversial light mask in no way make it worse, but simply an even more independent personality!

Extremely agile and powerful engine

comfortable riding position

high-quality suspension elements from KYB and Öhlins

good quickshifter with blipper

distinctive look.

Small TFT display

horn half-heartedly installed at the front
