Pros and Cons in comparison

Pros and Cons in comparison

Suzuki V-Strom 650 2018

Suzuki V-Strom 650 2018

The small V-Strom 650 is not only visually close to the big V-Strom 1000 with its pronounced duckbill, stacked headlights and extensive instruments. The equipment does not correspond at all to what is understood by "cheap entry": traction control, lively Euro4 engine, harmonious handling and additional techno-gadgets such as Low RPM Assist or Suzuki Easy Start System. To the delight of the customers, the price is kept within reasonable limits.

Lively, economical engine

balanced handling

good wind protection

traction control and ABS as standard

looks in the style of its big sister

extensive instrumentation with gear indicator

12-volt socket in the cockpit area

good price.

Traction control in mode 2 very restrictive

Triumph Tiger 800 XRT 2019

Triumph Tiger 800 XRT 2019

The Tiger 800 XRt is not only the slightly more road-oriented top model in the Tiger 800 range, it is also the best-selling model - and that could well remain the case with the new model. With a 19-inch front wheel and off-road mode, off-road excursions are no problem, while road riding and long journeys are sweetened with an incredible amount of luxury. In addition to cautious visual retouching, there is now a very easy height-adjustable windshield and 5 riding modes. Full LED lighting and a backlit control unit. Cleverly, the top models XRt and XCa are given the full LED lighting, the backlit control unit as well as heated grips and seats exclusively along the way.

Powerful engine

easy handling

full comfort equipment

pleasant seating position

five different riding modes

traction control and ABS can be deactivated

Colour TFT display not optimally anti-reflective

little slope clearance
