Pros and Cons in comparison

Pros and Cons in comparison

Yamaha R1 2012

Yamaha R1 2012

The Yamaha YZF-R1 still inspires with balanced performance - especially the 1000cc engine with its extravagant crank pin offset not only serves the powerful power delivery but also provides a wonderful sound!

Agile

strong brakes

good chassis

unique and exclusive due to the idiosyncratic engine.

The appearance, with the wide tail, might not satisfy all tastes.

The RC8 from KTM has matured into a good motorbike. Unfortunately, the maturing process has taken a little too long. The engine characteristics are good, the chassis as well and the bike is great to ride both on the country road and on the race track.

Well-tuned suspension elements

fairly agile

acceptable brakes

positive cornering.

Performance could be higher

primarily designed for country roads.
