Honda CB1100 RS 2017

Opinions are divided on the RS. For many, it doesn't seem as earthy and honest as the EX, and overall it doesn't seem coherent. But at the end of the day, you don't find any plastic where there should have been metal. The 17-inch rims offer a wider choice of tyres. The standard tyres might not be the best choice for this bike.

Lovely and high-quality workmanship

great engine tuning

wide choice of tyres

Lean angle clearance

Unharmonious turn-in behaviour with standard tyres

Top performance

The XSR900 in no way wants to hide the fact that it uses the MT-09 as its basis. With a full electronics package, powerful three-cylinder and sporty chassis components, you can be incredibly sporty on this retro bike. Hopefully you'll just find a more comfortable seat in the accessories soon - because it's going to take a lot of stops on the standard seat.

powerful engine

quickshifter as standard

good brakes

electronics package

sporty but everyday ergonomics
