Pros and Cons in comparison

Pros and Cons in comparison

Triumph Speed Triple R 2012

Triumph Speed Triple R 2012

The R rides as precisely and calmly as never before. It is guaranteed to keep its nerve even when the rider may have long since thrown it away. The disadvantage of the compact powerhouse is that the radii have to be a little wider and the course a little faster so that the true Queen of England can also play the 4 aces up her sleeve.

Flawless racing chassis

very precise

relatively stable

inspiring looks

great engine

stable brakes

Requires wide radii

Somewhat complicated to ride in turns

Weaknesses in comfort

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
