Pros and Cons in comparison

Kawasaki Z1000 2009

Kawasaki Z1000 2009

Kawasaki did well to rethink and rebuild the Z1000 from the ground up. It was given a dark soul whose roots lie in the (un)good old days, but it seems more genuine and cohesive thanks to its independent development. Kawa did justice to itself and the wishes of its customers to a high degree. All in all, a courageous product for courageous riders.

Relatively much power

powerful appearance

much comfort

optimal chassis

acceptable price.

Uncontrollable instrument unit

partial manual force present.

Honda CB750 Hornet 2024

Honda CB750 Hornet 2024

Hardly anyone needs more bike than the CB750 Hornet, priced at just 8890 euros (in Austria) or 8780 euros (in Germany), for universal all-round use between city transport, day trip substitute and after-work fun rocket. Thanks to its "easy going" character, a broad grin under the helmet is virtually unavoidable on the Hornet. Like a real hornet in the wild, the Honda Hornet turns out to be surprisingly sociable and useful in everyday life. However, if it is pushed into a corner, it knows how to use its sting skilfully in close combat.

Powerful, high-torque engine good brakes

comfortable seating position

agile handling

well-balanced chassis

comprehensive electronics

favourable, optional quickshifter

excellent price

Steel box swingarm not particularly sexy
