Triumph Speed Triple 1050 2010

Triumph Speed Triple 1050 2010

Euphoria spread through the long bends. The Triple is a bit more expensive than some Nippon Nakeds with cheap chassis and you can feel it. It remains stable, you can open the throttle hard and you hit the line exactly.

More power

increased torque

reduced weight

agility

greatly improved geometry

precise and fast.

>100kg people might have space problems.

Kawasaki Z 800 2014

Kawasaki Z 800 2014

Overall, the Z800 delivered a sensational performance. Considering the fact that nothing was changed or optimised on the vehicle apart from the Remus rear silencer, a super final result.

Eye-catching, chunky look

confident acceleration

relaxed geometry

powerful brakes

Limited freedom of movement for the legs.
