Pros and Cons in comparison

Suzuki DR-Z4S 2025

The Suzuki DR-Z4S is an all-round successful comeback - not a shallow retro rehash, but a consistently modernised further development of a popular and proven concept. It remains true to its line: robust, easy to use, versatile and yet capable of many things. It is a bike for a small niche of riders, between hard enduro riders and adventure bike riders. For this niche, however, it fills an important gap as a true dual sport bike and hardly allows itself any weaknesses. The most critical points are the remaining 5-speed transmission and the high price. Whether these points discourage a purchase or whether the DR-Z4S is still worthwhile as a legend and versatile vehicle remains a matter of taste.

Great, smooth yet powerful engine that makes off-road riding easy

Beautifully responsive KYB suspension with a wide adjustment range

Good-natured yet agile handling

Excellent gravel mode of the traction control

Intuitive operation of the electronics

Active ergonomics

Good country road and long-distance qualities

Nicely controllable brakes

Fills a gap in the motorbike segment

Long gear ratio as limit for tough off-road use

Fork preload not adjustable

Handlebars a little low for tall riders around 1.90 metres

Standard tyres as a limit on loose off-road terrain

High price for an A2 bike

Honda NC750X DCT 2025

The Honda NC750X retains its talents in terms of suitability for everyday use, practical details, accessibility and low fuel consumption even in the 2025 model year. The unique DCT dual-clutch transmission is even better because it is more harmoniously setup. A new aspect is now sportiness, which the engine and transmission unit and the agile handling with a low centre of gravity already made possible before, but is now taken to a new level thanks to the new, more stable double disc brakes at the front. Due to its distinct touring suitability, it is not surprising that the NC750X sells so well despite, or probably even because of, its 13-year existence. If you can afford it, you should definitely invest in the DCT dual clutch - this is what makes the NC750X truly unique!
