Yamaha Tracer 9 2021

Absolutely recommended for riders who like sporty riding but also don't want to forego the advantages of a touring vehicle. Whether GT or standard version is a question of taste: if you like to accelerate, mainly ride on good roads and are comfortable with a firm chassis, the standard Tracer 9 will serve you very well. Those who would like to have a bit of comfort on top and also ride longer tours from time to time will appreciate the comfort and additional equipment of the GT.
Honda CB1000F 2026

What can I say? I’d had high expectations, because the CB1000F looks fantastic and is built on the excellent Hornet platform. At the same time, I was worried that Honda might have tamed the engine too much, set up the suspension to be too comfortable, or that the whole retro theme would ultimately be nothing more than a nice bit of window dressing. None of that happened. The 122 Horsepower unit is spot on, because this engine delivers powerful thrust at low and mid-range revs. The suspension combines comfort with the firmness you need when sending it harder. The S22 sticks to the tarmac, the brakes work superbly and the sound is a dream. Add to that the riding position, which makes you feel as though you can practically see Freddie Spencer and the great AMA battles right in front of you. The bike is quite simply world-class. AMA Superbike racing has arrived in the 2020s. Congratulations, Honda! Brilliant.
