It is clear that the new 10 Kawa is strong and fast but no longer a crazy beast. Some Kawa fans will be saddened by this, but for many interested parties the Zx-10R is now a realistic prospect.

The Yamaha YZF-R1 is mature and makes countless racetrack pilots happy. The engine shines with lightness and agility, the seating position surprises positively and the handling is radical but still "suitable for the masses". The machine immediately stands out visually and also because of the heart-warming sound. Especially on the country road, the bike scores with its well-known strengths: great engine, great electronics, great package! A real pleasure to ride!
