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.

Honda CRF1000L Africa Twin Adventure Sports 2019

For many, the new Honda CRF1000L Africa Twin Adventure Sports is the true Africa Twin, which, with a larger tank, longer suspension travel and higher windshield, takes the long journey even more seriously than the normal Africa Twin already does. The chassis works like a litter, the seating position allows hundreds of kilometres at a stretch - according to Honda 525 on one tank of fuel. However, the agility and manoeuvrability of the normal Africa Twin suffer. With the more attractive appearance of the Adventure Sports, Honda has hit the bull's-eye again: there is currently no more beautiful adventure bike.
