The GSX-R 750 is the golden mean in many respects. It offers a level of power that is not overwhelming on the road but is also a lot of fun. On the one hand, it is relatively inexpensive, but on the other, it is still fast enough. The GSX-R 750 is a great supersport machine. If you don't value superlatives and just want a good bike, go for the GSX-R 750 and use the money you save to treat yourself to race training sessions on the Nordschleife....

Excellent engine reponsiveness

great modulation

comfortable riding position even for tall riders

reliable technology

perfect transmission

unspectacular at the pub-talk

brake pads and lines too slack for racetrack use

long final drive ratio

Kawasaki Z900 2017

An incredibly well-designed motorbike. A lot of test work and attention to detail went into it. It has exactly the right power, exactly the right chassis and exactly the right look. An all-round successful naked bike that will make you happy for a long time. If you like, you can ride it simply and faithfully, but if you want, you can also ride it really fast and it wheels like hell. Great!

Ingenious nakedbike chassis

superb looks

engine responds super fine, revs up willingly and has a perfectly dimensioned torque

optimum intersection of performance, price and practical use

Knee angle very narrow for tall people (order another seat!)
