Yamaha XSR900 2021

Yamaha XSR900 2021

The Yamaha XSR900 is a classic case of optical illusion – with its round headlight, angular fuel tank and mounted rear light, it clearly comes across as a retro bike. However, it’s no coincidence that its performance is reminiscent of the powerful mid-range naked bike, the Yamaha MT-09, as that is the extremely sporty basis for the XSR900. The engine is therefore a real force to be reckoned with, and the brakes, as you’d expect, bite with real ferocity. Fortunately, the engineers haven’t gone overboard with the suspension; the XSR900 offers plenty of comfort, and the upright riding position is more relaxed than one might expect given the engine’s powerful acceleration. Within the retro bike segment, the XSR900 is yet one of the sportiest models overall.

an extremely sporty and revvy engine

excellent brakes

a riding experience on a par with a naked bike

comfortable riding position

high-quality build

value for money

almost too direct responsiveness

the retro style hasn’t been thought through down to the last detail

BMW R nineT Pure 2023

BMW R nineT Pure 2023

BMW proves that even the most affordable entry into the R nineT world does not compromise on riding performance and emotion. If you reach for the original accessories from the Bavarians, you will quickly find that even the Pure quickly becomes a visual dream! The only compromises are the suspension, which is not very responsive, and the gauges, which are reduced to the bare minimum except for a speed indicator and trip meter. But with such a retro bike with such a strong character, you can overlook even these minor inconveniences.
