Royal Enfield Himalayan 2021

Royal Enfield Himalayan 2021

Since its release, the Royal Enfield Himalayan has enjoyed a large fan community thanks to its classic design and exemplary price-performance ratio. With the 2021 model year, practical details such as ABS that can be deactivated on the rear wheel or the small LCD display with arrow navigation have also been introduced. All in all, however, it remains what it has always stood for: a decelerating companion that is just as ready for the grand tour as it is to cut a good figure in front of the ice cream parlour in the city.

Honda CB500F 2020

Honda CB500F 2020

Honda has significantly improved the rounded package called CB500F for 2022. Thanks to better brakes and a higher-quality chassis, the handling has been significantly upgraded. Both beginners and experienced riders will feel very comfortable on this bike and enjoy it for many years to come. Only the suspension strut is not quite up to scratch - but there still needs to be room for improvement somewhere.
