Pros and Cons in comparison
Pros and Cons in comparison
Suzuki GSX-S1000S Katana 2019
The new Suzuki GSX-S1000S Katana is based on the naked GSX-S1000 and is therefore convincing in all its quality and inner values of a typical Japanese machine. Visually, the Katana additionally has what it takes to become a classic; after all, it is the first to pick up the style of the 1980s. The riding position is surprisingly comfortable and the high handlebars allow pleasant control. With its low front fairing, it doesn't become a distinct touring machine, but it certainly passes as a crossover bike that excellently combines retro, naked and touring.
Triumph Street Triple 765 R 2017
The golden mean of the three Street Triple Schwesetern S, R and RS inspires with balanced riding performance - not too comfortable but far enough away from the top model RS. The engine characteristics aim for a bulbous middle in the rev range and exude a lot of charisma - among other things because of the unique sound. In terms of handling, there is hardly anything better; the Street Triple is the lightest in its class. For smaller riders, there is a version with a low seat height, and for A2 licence holders, there is a variant with 95 hp that can easily be throttled down to 48 hp.
