Suzuki V-Strom 1000 2015

Suzuki V-Strom 1000 2015

In the large enduro segment, the Suzuki V-Strom 1000 occupies the position of the cheapest offer, yet you don't have to do without anything - even traction control and ABS are included as standard. Excellent brakes, great comfort and a wonderfully powerful V-twin engine are ingredients that should please almost everyone. The fact that it doesn't play in the top league with 100 hp is made up for by the wonderful power delivery, which ensures a relaxed climate on long journeys. Only the wind protection is not optimal with the original windshield; one should invest in the affordable, somewhat larger windshield.

Powerful engine

traction control as standard

very good brakes

taut yet comfortable chassis

great touring capability

complete instrumentation

Windshield creates turbulence on the head

the engine runs out of breath in the upper rev range, arbitrary optics

Honda SH125i 2020

Honda SH125i 2020

The Honda SH125i for the 2020 model year has truly earned the designation "new". While it remains true to its long-standing line, it scores under its newly designed dress with numerous changes that make the already popular city runabout even more attractive. More storage space, low fuel consumption and enough power for everyday life speak for the SH125i, only the lack of the practical glove compartment and the slightly reflective glass of the LC display catch our eye negatively. But that's not enough to depress the positive impression, because the Honda SH remains the pragmatist par excellence that always runs and, above all, functions as you expect it to.
