Pros and Cons in comparison

Yamaha Tracer 900 GT 2020

The Tracer 900 GT is the perfect bike for those who find the naked MT-09 too spartan for sporty country road riding. Thanks to the longer swingarm and better aerodynamics, the high-speed problems that the predecessor had to contend with have now been largely eliminated. The premium version in the form of the Tracer 900 GT goes one better and can also convince with great comfort features.

powerful engine

top chassis

fun to ride

good stability

successful revision of aerodynamics

comfort gain for pillion passenger

cruise control

heated grips

TFT colour display

Very low payload

pillion footrest system restricts freedom of movement

no cornering ABS

Suzuki V-Strom 650 2022

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
