Pros and Cons in comparison

Suzuki GSX-8TT 2025

Suzuki GSX-8TT 2025

With the GSX-8TT, Suzuki delivers a bike with character and a cool look, a custom bike out of the box, so to speak. The mixture of classic accents and modern technology is successful, and the positioning as a high-quality character with retro charm is fitting. However, the entry into a new retro generation at Suzuki is not entirely favourable.

Cultivated engine

good suspension

high-quality finish

good features

suitable for everyday use

powerful LED-Headlights

pleasant ergonomics

large range

successful appearance

Licence plate holder disturbs otherwise wonderful look

price upscale

TFT screen somewhat carelessly pulled into the retro concept

Kawasaki Z900 RS 2022

Kawasaki Z900 RS 2022

The Z900 RS enjoys a large fan base and in 2022 it once again proves why it is so popular. The powerful engine scores with pulling power and a wonderful sound that is not too obtrusive. The handling feels natural and presents no challenges. Only a quickshifter would suit the bike - even if that doesn't quite fit the retro idea.

stable handling
