Kawasaki Z1000 2012

Kawasaki Z1000 2012

All in all, the new Z1000 is a successful further development of its predecessor. The lack of traction control is more of a marketing problem than a problem for end customers.

Powerful engine

rich sound

unique design

No traction control

nervous chassis

Yamaha Tracer 900 GT 2019

Yamaha Tracer 900 GT 2019

Yamaha's sporty all-purpose weapon has been further improved. It is the perfect bike for all those for whom the naked MT-09 is too spartanly designed for sporty country road riding. Thanks to the longer swingarm as well as better aerodynamics, the high-speed problems that the predecessor had to contend with have now been largely eliminated. The premium version in the form of the Tracer 900 GT goes one better and can also convince with great comfort features.

Powerful engine

top chassis

guaranteed riding fun

better stability than the predecessor

successful revision of the aerodynamics

increased comfort for pillion passenger

cruise control

heated grips

automatic gearshift

attractive TFT colour display.

Pillion footrest system restricts freedom of movement

ABS and traction control only at basic level
