Pros and Cons in comparison

Suzuki V-Strom 1050 2024

With the revision and expansion of the 1050 models, Suzuki now has the right large V-Strom for everyone. Those who know from the outset that they will be staying almost exclusively on the road will find the standard model a reliable travelling companion or even a buddy for every day, while those who are less restricted in their choice of routes and also want to ride regularly on unpaved terrain will now find a good choice in the DE. However, the main selling point remains the engine, which with its 107 Horsepower and, above all, its rich torque, leaves little to be desired.

High-torque motor High-quality electronics package

excellent ergonomics

extensive standard equipment

intuitive operation of the electronics

long-distance comfort

excellent wind and weather protection

good original equipment tyres

successful retro look

very confident riding performance

bike inspires a lot of confidence

high weight ABS cannot be switched off or deactivated at the rear

Yamaha MT-09 2024

Yes, Yamaha has produced a really leiwandes bike. All the criticisms of its predecessor have been successfully revised without neutering the wild and playful nature of the MT-09. The fourth generation is more mature, more precise and more polished, rides more neutrally and is more stable without losing its light-footedness. A marvellous bike that currently offers an almost unbeatable price-performance ratio thanks to many detail improvements and has now even become really pretty. The Yamaha dealers won't be able to save themselves from orders after test rides. Let's hope that availability is guaranteed, because the new MT-09 is the definition of the word "direct hit"!

Powerful acceleration in every situation / potent engine

aggressive but not too loud sound

good ergonomics for good feedback and confidence

lavish basic features

precise chassis with good everyday tuning

beautiful display

good workmanship

agile and playful handling

versatile three-cylinder engine

good stability

modern electronics package

Fiddly indicator function

seat comfort in the crotch area could be improved

controls less intuitive than on some competitors

polarised front design
