Kawasaki Z650 2017

The Kawasaki Z 650 is the tip of the middle class for small male and female riders. On its compact dimensions, you probably won't feel comfortable as a giant. Heart-warming feelings, however, come from the engine, which delights with a very smooth pull. On the chassis side, a Kawasaki-typical tight set-up was chosen, which finds a great compromise in everyday use. The negative display is very easy to read and is reminiscent of its predecessor, the ER-6n - very nice!

Honda CBR 125 R 2011

All in all, the CBR125R is an extremely grown-up-looking motorbike with a convincing level of comfort and a smooth-running engine. The CBR250R offers more power with an almost identical look, but it can no longer be ridden with a 125 driving licence.

Very low weight

sporty handling

well-tuned suspension elements
