Yamaha R1 2021

Yamaha R1 2021

The Yamaha YZF-R1 is mature and makes countless racetrack pilots happy. The engine shines with lightness and agility, the seating position surprises positively and the handling is radical but still "suitable for the masses". The machine immediately stands out visually and also because of the heart-warming sound. Especially on the country road, the bike scores with its well-known strengths: great engine, great electronics, great package! A real pleasure to ride!

Triumph Rocket 3 GT 2021

Triumph Rocket 3 GT 2021

The Rocket 3 GT is a ship of a motorbike. Starting with the crazy engine and finishing with the long wheelbase. It's all the more surprising that Triumph's engineers have managed to teach it manners even in tighter bends. The Rocket 3's manoeuvrability is the real surprise of this 300-kilogram machine. All sorts of little helpers enable safe riding in every situation. It's great that we are allowed to drive such masterpieces of engineering - provided, of course, that we have the necessary money.

Authentic touring character

a monument of an engine, yet super controllable

good brakes

comfortable seating position

neutral handling

world record for displacement and torque

high-quality workmanship.

Sissybar not to everyone's taste
