BMW S 1000 RR 2012

BMW S 1000 RR 2012

What remains is fascination, bewilderment and fear. You can't shake the uneasy feeling that you're not quite yourself on this bike. It feels like a heavy metal concert with earplugs.

Complete, electronic equipment

good braking system

strong engine

extremely fast on the road

appropriate appearance.

Chassis somewhat complicated and takes a lot of getting used to.

Husqvarna Vitpilen 701 2020

Husqvarna Vitpilen 701 2020

The Husqvarna Vitpilen 701 is still a true highlight among light, handy motorbikes because of its unrivalled characteristics. Its appearance is unique and the technology under the pretty design is also impressive. The combination of 75 hp from the well-known single-cylinder, paired with a superbly shifting quickshifter, creates an insane amount of joy on the road. However, the engine needs revs and the seating position will not please everyone. The Husqvarna Vitpilen 701 is therefore a motorbike that you have to get completely involved with. If you can do that, a lot of fun is guaranteed.

fantastic design

powerful engine

quickshifter with blipper function

high-quality chassis

sporty seating position

low weight

Uncomfortable seating position

must be driven above 3000 revs

rather uncomfortable on long journeys.
