Pros and Cons in comparison

Yamaha MT-07 2020

Yamaha MT-07 2020

The MT-07 is a wonderful fun machine that is extremely sporty to ride. The brakes pack a punch and the engine is currently by far the most agile powerplant in this class - and perhaps even above. The light handling fits in perfectly and the chassis makes the understandable compromise between comfort and sport - reminding us that the affordable MT-07 should also have a lot to offer beginners. Only the design with halogen headlights and conventional forks is rather old-fashioned.

High-torque two-cylinder

easy to ride

pleasant seating position

large selection of accessories

price-performance ratio is right

Optics and fittings already look grey

Honda CBR500R 2018

Honda CBR500R 2018

The new CBR500R ranks directly below the popular CBR600RR super sports bike in the model segment of the Honda CBR family, at least in terms of displacement, and thus has high expectations to meet. However, it solves this task with flying colours and carries the model designation worthily into the entry-level segment. Especially with its captivating looks, defined by the use of LED technology, there is no need to hide with this motorbike. The improved engine is now even more fun to ride, as the sound has also improved considerably thanks to the new rear silencer. When racing, you should choose the right track due to the limited top speed, but it still remains very stable in every situation.
