Pros and Cons in comparison

Malaguti Drakon 125 ABS 2023

The Malaguti Drakon 125 is a contemporary A1 naked bike with agile handling, good equipment, accessible engine and modern design. The workmanship is now close to that of the big manufacturers, but it still has a few minor flaws here and there. Considering the extremely attractive price, however, you can forgive the bike's minor flaws. When it comes down to it, there is not much missing from the big players.

Pleasant, upright seating position

Lively, accessible engine

Well-balanced chassis

Passable brakes

TFT display rare in the A1 class

Good value for money

Processing not very precise in some places

Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R 2009

Ninja fans have no choice but to buy the new 10. It is lighter, stronger, easier to handle and yet easier to ride than any other ZX-10R to date. Even compared to the other Japanese bikes, the Kawa presents itself as superior. Besides the European bikes, emotions, preferences for certain colours and shapes certainly come into play.

Extremely precise traction control

efficient braking system

integrated electronics

positive ABS system

high engine power.

Suboptimal transmission - tight gearshifts.
