BMW F 800 R 2013

In the advertisements, the new BMW F 800 R sometimes comes across as a woman's motorbike. This does not do the bike an injustice, but the civilised engine, the low seat height and the smooth controls certainly suit petite ladies.

Suzuki GSX-8R 2025

Suzuki GSX-8R 2025

The GSX-8R brings a breath of fresh air to the mid-range sports faction - without appearing too radical or nervous. Even though it has a sporty appearance, it is very beginner-friendly at its core: the same 776 cc twin cylinder as in the V-Strom delivers linear, predictable propulsion. The riding position is sportier, but not aggressive - ideal for beginners looking for a more dynamic look and crisper road holding without having to fight with superbikes. It conveys control and confidence, ideal for first or new experiences on the tarmac.

Sporty look with naked bike comfort

Suitable for touring thanks to good leg ergonomics

Stable rear-view mirrors

Accessible seat height

Rather nervous at low revs

Rough quickshifter
