Yamaha MT-07 2022

Hardly any other motorbike in the so-called entry-level class is as much fun as the Yamaha MT-07. Even the version that is throttled down to 48 hp can keep up with the full version for longer than you would expect due to its comparatively large displacement. The remaining components also do well, both the brakes and the suspension don't want to scare anyone with too much harshness, but don't immediately reach the limit even with sportier riders. The look is now more coherent, the minimalist LED headlight fits in perfectly with the angular look.

Both the new Sportster XL 883 Iron and its larger sister Sportster XL 1200 X Forty-Eight benefit from the revised suspension - the rear shocks dampen more sensitively and are infinitely adjustable in spring preload. The front forks also do a better job thanks to the progressive spring winding, and sagging is efficiently prevented. The fat 49-millimetre fork on the Forty-Eight in particular also makes a good visual impression.
