Yamaha Niken 2018

Yamaha Niken 2018

MEX tested the new tricycle from Japan for you and was very enthusiastic. The front end rides as if on rails on narrow mountain passes as well as in faster radii. The innovative concept of the NIKEN allows for incredibly fast and yet equally safe progress in all weather conditions. The highly praised Cross-Plane three-cylinder has been perfectly adapted for the NIKEN with a little more flywheel mass and a different final gear ratio. To all interested parties: Don't be put off by the looks or the "three-wheeler image". Be sure to test ride it!

Strictly speaking, the MV Agusta Stradale 800 is a supermoto to which they have only added a disc at the front and two cases at the rear. You should be aware of this, because it is recommended for people who are looking for very direct handling and who ride a motorbike primarily for the fun of cornering and not to cover long distances. The panniers are only good for a weekend with difficulty, and the strongly front-wheel-orinated seating position literally forces the rider to adopt a sporty and fun-oriented riding style. The relatively cultivated three-cylinder engine also fits in with this, but it needs to be revved up to exploit its full potential.

Sophisticated engine that revs up smoothly even from far below

electronics package with ABS, traction control and 3 mappings

cool looks

comfortable yet firm chassis

stable and well-metered braking system

well-padded saddle.

Radical seating position does not suit everyone

panniers take only little luggage and are fiddly to remove

three-cylinder sound sounds better on other MV Agustas
