Pros and Cons in comparison

Honda CBR1000RR Fireblade 2015

Those who focus on good lap times will not find the CBR 1000 RR the best partner in the field. Those who simply want to ride nice laps around the ring or on the country road will still have fun with it. It rides heart-stoppingly, looks great and gives you a lot of feeling for the rear wheel. At the regulars' table, Honda fans can at least score points with Marquez's victories, but they won't be able to come up with the Fireblade's fabulous performance figures or lap records.

great look

transparent handling

good feeling for traction

high-quality chassis

great basis for racetrack conversion

reliable and proven technology

Peak power no longer up to date

lack of traction control

Yamaha MT-10 2016

The short and stocky MT-10 is the furthest away from the R1 superbike of the renowned power naked bikes, both in terms of looks and chassis, but the heart of the MT-10 is directly descended from the racetrack weapon and fascinates with a uniquely raw sound and power from below thanks to the typical crank pin offset, which, with a modified firing order, ensures this unique character. The resulting 160 hp therefore only seem a little weak on paper compared to the more than 200 hp of the R1, in reality the MT-10 also ignites incredible fireworks. The suspension would probably be too soft for the race track, but it is just right for a country road fight, and the brakes do the same - probably only acceptable for the track, but perfect for the country road.
