Hyosung GV 125 S Aquila 2022

Hyosung GV 125 S Aquila 2022

If you like the look of big bobber bikes with powerful V2 engines, the Hyosung GV125 S Aquila is an interesting 125cc alternative. The look is really successful, the proportions are right and the Bonsai V2 is a real V2! However, the engine does not stand out noticeably from the usual single-cylinder competition. This may also be due to the comparatively high weight. Nevertheless, the GV125 S Aquila is a very agile and, thanks to the comfortable seating position, also very easy to ride bobber. A real recommendation for novice riders with an A1/B111/B196 licence.

Gorgeous bobber look

a real V2 engine

very comfortable seating position

low saddle height

very manoeuvrable despite higher weight

CBS brake as a safety feature

Engine rather unspectacular

CBS takes some getting used to

Kawasaki Vulcan S 2015

Kawasaki Vulcan S 2015

The Vulcan S is reinvigorating the "small" mid-size cruiser scene - not only because of its unique design, but also because it is so easy to ride and is aimed at beginners. The low seat height and the narrow saddle help the rider to stand securely on the ground, while the low centre of gravity also makes for easy and safe handling. The engine also fits in well with the uncomplicated appearance, can be revved up decently from 2000 rpm and only stops at around 10,000 rpm - something that has never been seen before in a cruiser. The "Ergo-Fit" system, which varies the seat height, the rider's distance from the handlebars and the footrests, costs extra but also allows the Vulcan S owner generous customisation options.
