Yamaha Tracer 7 GT 2025

Yamaha Tracer 7 GT 2025

The new Tracer 7 GT impresses with its harmoniously tuned CP2 engine and playful, easy handling. Get on, ride off and explore the world - that's the Tracer 7 GT. The new chassis, more electronics and suspension are good for it. We miss the quickshifter, which is only available as an option for an extra charge; Y-AMT will not be available until 2026.

Suzuki V-Strom 1050 XT 2021

Suzuki V-Strom 1050 XT 2021

Even though the new V-Strom 1050 has moved up in price to a league in which it has to be compared more with the competition than before, it has remained true to itself despite the most modern safety features, or rather, it has remained an uncomplicated motorbike that is ready for the big journey. Its favourite terrain is the road, which, thanks to the good chassis, can also be bad and bumpy. Off-road passages are no problem either, but those who regularly seek rougher terrain will be less likely to end up with the Suzuki due to its mighty weight. On paved roads, however, the mass can be moved surprisingly quickly and effortlessly. The addictive engine, the successful retro design and the extreme suitability for touring make the Suzuki V-Strom 1050 XT a top motorbike for long journeys.
