Pros and Cons in comparison
Pros and Cons in comparison
Yamaha MT-09 SP 2021

The Yamaha MT-09 SP is based on the really well-done MT-09. In 2021, a particularly fine vintage! But the upgrade goes one better! The high-quality chassis provides a great compromise between riding comfort and sportiness.
Ducati Streetfighter V4 S 2022

The problem of the Streetfighter V4 S with Euro4 engine, namely no power in the lower rev range but explosion in the upper rev range, has been largely rectified with the update to Euro5. Although the disgusting 208 hp are still only available at 13,000 rpm, the SF V4 S is now also acceptable at lower revs. Ergonomics and handling are still good, and the electronic Öhlins suspension is at its best. The brute Brembo Stylema stoppers again celebrate the penchant for the racetrack. A perfect poser bike that now also works on the country road, and on the racetrack anyway. Only the all-too-loud sound should be curbed a little.
