Kawasaki Versys 1000 SE 2023

Kawasaki Versys 1000 SE 2023

The Kawasaki Versys 1000 SE is more than equipped for the big journey: The many features pull together, because everything good about the SE is aimed at comfort and safety. Whether it's the semi-active electronic Skyhook suspension from Showa, the KIBS cornering ABS, the Kawasaki Cornering Management Function (KMCF), the cornering lights or the easy-to-read TFT colour display, the electronics leave nothing to be desired. Coupled with the comfortable seating position and the high, adjustable windshield, long stages are a pleasure. The engine is certainly not the most powerful, the weight certainly not the lowest, but overall the Versys 1000 SE is an optimal touring motorbike.

CFMOTO 450SR S 2024

CFMOTO 450SR S 2024

The CFMOTO 450SR S impresses with a powerful 450cc twin-cylinder in-line engine, a well-tuned gear ratio and a sporty yet comfortable riding position. The bike offers stable handling, precise riding geometry and good tyre performance, which makes the riding experience pleasant. However, the rough throttle response, immature traction control and ABS as well as ergonomic weaknesses detract from the riding comfort.
