Yamaha T-MAX 530 ABS 2016

The Yamaha TMAX sets the bar high in the luxury scooter segment. The powerful 530cc two-cylinder pushes mightily, motorway stages should not be a problem. The sound and handling are more reminiscent of a motorbike than a scooter - in a positive sense. Comfort is also good, so holiday trips should not be a problem. Only the high weight and the dimensions of the TMAX are annoying, in the city you need almost the same space as a car. On top of that, the price is high, which will probably make the TMAX more of an exotic on our roads.
Kawasaki Z1000 2009

Kawasaki did well to rethink and rebuild the Z1000 from the ground up. It was given a dark soul whose roots lie in the (un)good old days, but it seems more genuine and cohesive thanks to its independent development. Kawa did justice to itself and the wishes of its customers to a high degree. All in all, a courageous product for courageous riders.
