Kawasaki Versys 1000 2012

With no other Bigenduro can you ride so hard on the knee and therefore end up way ahead on the grid. If you often feel attacked on your holiday trip, you should fight back with the Versys 1000. Which proves that big enduros and four-cylinders do get along.

Silky running powerplant

sporty, comfortable chassis

efficient wind protection

cushioned seat.

Slight tipping in curves takes some getting used to

arguable design

Yamaha Tracer 700 2020

The Tracer 700 offers casual riding fun in many situations. The cheeky engine gives it a sporty touch, the upright riding position offers riding comfort. It is a good all-round machine. On long journeys, however, you have to accept some sacrifices.

Sporty feeling

playfully light ride

good brakes

low weight

easy to operate.

Chassis somewhat uncomfortable on bad roads

windshield a little too small on tours

handlebar position a little too low on long tours and off-road
