Pros and Cons in comparison
Yamaha XSR900 2021
The Yamaha XSR900 is a classic optical illusion - with its round headlight, angular tank and attached tail light, it clearly passes for a retro bike. But it's no coincidence that the performance is reminiscent of the potent mid-range naked bike Yamaha MT-09, which is the extremely sporty basis for the XSR900. So the engine is a blast and the brakes are appropriately venomous. Fortunately, the engineers didn't overdo it with the chassis, the XSR900 offers sufficient comfort and the upright riding position is more comfortable than the powerful engine would lead one to expect. All in all, the XSR900 is one of the sportiest models among the retro bikes.
Ducati Scrambler Icon 2018
The Ducati Scrambler Icon is certainly not a 'new bike' for 2019 but a successful facelift of a bike that was good from the start. New features include daytime running lights, LED turn signals, new suspension tuning and, most importantly, Bosch cornering ABS. For those who want a simple motorbike that can be used to cover short distances in a very relaxed manner and with a lot of style, the Scrambler Icon is the right choice, because if you let it glide along on the country road in a relaxed manner, with the Ducati you get a very cool all-rounder that is also really fun.
