Pros and Cons in comparison

Kawasaki Ninja 7 Hybrid 2024

The saying "The Best Of Both Worlds" has never been truer with any other motorbike than with the Ninja 7 Hybrid. It combines the comfort and ease of use of a commuter bike with the joy of an unreasonable fun bike. You definitely have to get used to this drive concept when riding - it's not a case of just getting on and riding off! Nevertheless, Kawasaki shows that the technology is also possible in motorbike construction, even if there is still room for improvement in certain areas.

Absolute revolution in motorbike construction

exciting concept well implemented

very versatile motorbike

every riding mode can be used sensibly

good tuning of the suspension and brake components

E-Boost

Heavy transmission load changes in automatic mode

no kickdown function in automatic mode

no parking brake or possibility to stop the motorbike in gear

Suzuki GSX-8S 2023

For years, Suzuki was the brand that offered nice bikes at a good price/performance ratio. With the Suzuki GSX-8S, the brand is much more self-confident. It presents itself as high-quality, mature and places itself at the top of a hard-fought class. The unspectacular performance data and the relatively high weight tarnish the picture only briefly. During the test rides, the Suzuki was completely convincing. A really good motorbike.

Full-grown and high-quality overall concept

high-torque engine

first-class running culture, stable handling, overall very high-quality impression

Very good seat

Great nakedbike riding position

Good and precise quickshifter

high-quality controls

very good display

Suspension offers reserves for a wide range of uses despite lack of adjustment options

Good ergonomics

Quickshifter and gearstick require a little more operating force than usual

Motorbike somewhat heavier than other bikes in this class

ABS controls very defensively

Engine has no rev reserves upwards
