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.

For power freaks, the KTM 625SMC is an excellent compromise in road use. The iron marches splendidly, has an e-start, reasonable service intervals and also offers some comfort. In terms of handling and agility, it can't quite keep up with the two lightweights 450 Husky and 650 Berg.
