Even after a few years in production, Honda manages to keep the CB 500 F fresh. With LEDs in the front and rear and a revised engine, the naked bike remains a great A2 motorbike tip. Its grown-up appearance gives it a real big-bike feel, which means it doesn't have to hide at all. It could only be better if it had a gear indicator.

BMW G 650 GS 2016

BMW G 650 GS 2016

His little one has been perfectly introduced to life as a journalist press vehicle. Nothing can shake it now. The thing about the careful running-in on the first kilometres should not be overrated, the GS apparently also copes with the hard instant variation.

Ideal, fully-fledged entry-level motorbike

positive riding experience

optimum chassis

plenty of comfort.

Fuel consumption could be slightly lower.
