Yamaha MT-07 2019

Yamaha MT-07 2019

Even the first MT-07 series was an insanely good basis for sporty riding on naked bikes. With the 2018 model, Yamaha has finally managed to bring the full potential of the CP2 engine to the road. Keyword: chassis. Thanks to simple interventions, the suspension components now have the sporty character we have long desired. The refreshed look also makes them appear much more grown-up. Only the gauges and gearshift units seem a little outdated - but here you can see why the MT-07 is offered at such a competitive price!

High-torque two-cylinder

well-done chassis update

easy to ride

pleasant seating position

large selection of accessories

Kawasaki Ninja 500 SE 2024

Kawasaki Ninja 500 SE 2024

The Kawasaki Ninja 500 SE impresses as a versatile bike with an excellent power-to-weight ratio that is suitable for both sporty riding and everyday use. With a powerful 450cc two-cylinder engine and a weight of just 171 kg, it offers agile handling and sporty riding performance. The riding position is comfortable and the brakes and clutch work precisely and reliably. Although the bike has no traction control, the engine is easy to control. The outdated display and menu navigation as well as the average sound of the engine are criticised. Despite these shortcomings, the Ninja 500 SE offers excellent value for money and is an attractive choice for riders in the A2 segment.
