Pros and Cons in comparison

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"!

Triumph Speed Twin 1200 2022

The Triumph Speed Twin could be the height of emotion for fans of classic Triumph motorbikes. The engine pushes like a tractor in every situation and spoils you with a wonderful sound. Chassis and brake components are of high quality and the looks are inspiring. Unfortunately, tall riders cannot enjoy the small 1200 quite as easily as riders under 1.85 metres.

powerful punch from the rev range

high-quality workmanship

sporty chassis

great looks

compact dimensions could become a problem for tall pilots

heat development of the engine
