Pros and Cons in comparison
Pros and Cons in comparison
Yamaha V-MAX 2010
The big Vmax from Yamaha is a unique bike. This applies to the technical side, with the largest V4 engine in a bike of all time, as well as to the emotional side of riding a Vmax. Few bikes can offer such brute grunt in every riding situation, and even fewer of them are cruisers. Although its stubborn turning behaviour detracts from the riding pleasure, the seating position is quite cramped and the sound could be more indicative of the massive displacement, the propulsion is addictive. The Vmax 1700 is definitely a niche product, but also an absolutely awe-inspiring, unique bike.
Triumph Rocket 3 R 2019
The Rocket 3 R can certainly be considered the sporting cannon among the two Rocket 3 models: Cannon, because the engine with its incredible 2.5 litre (!) capacity pushes as expected, like a cannonball, and sport, because this huge machine is surprisingly easy and precise to control, despite a ready-to-ride weight of over 300 kilos. The seating position is successfully active, the brakes stable and the electronics with cornering ABS, traction control, four riding modes, cruise control and colour TFT cockpit complete and up to date. Added to this is the thoroughly attractive and high-quality appearance, which makes it a real pleasure to present the motorbike with the world's largest standard engine and torque in front of the ice cream parlour.
