Pros and Cons in comparison
KTM 350 EXC-F 2017
The KTM 350 EXC-F offers a successful overall package that will please 4-stroke fans. The powerful unit convinces with clean power, even if the KTM has to be kept at high revs and the engine is a bit rough. In terms of handling, it seems comfortable but a little nervous, which means that confidence in the machine is lacking at first. The brakes, on the other hand, are easy to control.
Yamaha V-MAX 2009
The big Vmax from Yamaha is a unique bike. This applies to the technical side, with the largest V4 engine in a bike of all time, as well as to the emotional side of riding a Vmax. Few bikes can offer such brute grunt in every riding situation, and even fewer of them are cruisers. Although its stubborn turning behaviour detracts from the riding pleasure, the seating position is quite cramped and the sound could be more indicative of the massive displacement, the propulsion is addictive. The Vmax 1700 is definitely a niche product, but also an absolutely awe-inspiring, unique bike.
