Pros and Cons in comparison

Pros and Cons in comparison

Kawasaki Versys 650 2014

Kawasaki Versys 650 2014

With a full tank of only 211 kg, it is particularly easy to handle in the mountains. All in all, it is at home almost anywhere, an everyday bike with that certain kick. With a new headlight and modernised design, the Versys is back on the attack.

Absolutely suitable for everyday use

interesting concept

very low consumption.

Performance not too high.

Honda CB750 Hornet 2023

Honda CB750 Hornet 2023

The new Hornet 750 is a really successful naked bike that sets itself above most competitors in the upper entry-level bike class with its wonderfully agile and powerful engine, balanced handling and chassis, comfortable riding position and, last but not least, its extensive electronic equipment. Actually, it comes very close to the middle class, only the boring swingarm and the narrow 160 rear tyre (which, however, helps the handling enormously) do not quite fit into this segment. However, it is hardly more expensive than the entry-level bikes, and instead a few, sometimes even many thousands cheaper than the mid-range. That makes it an unbeatable offer!

Powerful, high-torque engine

good brakes

comfortable seating position

agile handling

well-balanced chassis

extensive electronics

affordable, optional quickshifter

excellent price

Steel box swing arm not particularly sexy
