Yamaha FZ-8N 2010

Yamaha FZ-8N 2010

Freely following the philosophical-optimistic view that the glass is not half empty but half full, at Yamaha you don't have to decide AGAINST two, but FOR one. In any case, the FZ8 has enough potential to become the golden mean in the circle of free-body bikes.

Sporty engine performance

beefy appearance

pleasant driving feel

relatively fast.

Exhaust canister convinces optically negative.

Kawasaki Z900 2017

Kawasaki Z900 2017

An incredibly well-designed motorbike. A lot of test work and attention to detail went into it. It has exactly the right power, exactly the right chassis and exactly the right look. An all-round successful naked bike that will make you happy for a long time. If you like, you can ride it simply and faithfully, but if you want, you can also ride it really fast and it wheels like hell. Great!

Ingenious nakedbike chassis

superb looks

engine responds super fine, revs up willingly and has a perfectly dimensioned torque

optimum intersection of performance, price and practical use

Knee angle very narrow for tall people (order another seat!)
