Pros and Cons in comparison

Suzuki V-Strom 650 2020

The small V-Strom 650 is not only visually close to the big V-Strom 1000 with its pronounced duckbill, stacked headlights and extensive instruments. The equipment does not correspond at all to what is understood by "cheap entry": traction control, lively Euro4 engine, harmonious handling and additional techno-gadgets such as Low RPM Assist or Suzuki Easy Start System. To the delight of the customers, the price is kept within reasonable limits.

Lively, economical engine

balanced handling

good wind protection

traction control and ABS as standard

looks in the style of its big sister

extensive instrumentation with gear indicator

12-volt socket in the cockpit area

good price.

Traction control in mode 2 very restrictive

Honda XL750 Transalp 2024

In the long-term test, the Honda XL750 Transalp proves to be a versatile and reliable adventure bike that combines touring comfort with solid off-road capability. It is not a sports bike, but an honest, uncomplicated adventure bike for anyone looking for a reliable bike for road and gravel. Minor weaknesses in the suspension and electronic settings hardly spoil the overall very positive impression.

Balanced ergonomics

Height touring comfort

Cultivated engine

Reliable

Good-natured handling

Solid off-road capabilities

Good braking performance

Smooth clutch

Non-adjustable windscreen

Soft suspension

ABS not fully disengageable

Traction control resets itself

Narrow knee angle

Little punch in the upper rev range
