Husqvarna 701 Supermoto 2017

The 701 Supermoto is the right vehicle for asphalt surfers who regard a motorbike as a toy without wanting to forego suitability for everyday use. The ABS also meets sporting demands, can be switched off or operated in Supermoto mode using a "dongle" from the accessories. The ride-by-wire offers three different riding modes to choose from, which can also only be changed while riding with an extra. This brings us to the downer in the Austro-Swedish melange: we would have liked to see some extras in the standard equipment. One of these is the set of stickers for the many white surfaces on the fairing.

elegant design

strong brakes

excellently tuned engine

good sound

suitable for everyday use

Some useful extras at extra cost

Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R 2014

Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R 2014

The ZX-10R was right in the middle during the test. It was not as fast and radical as the R1, Panigale, BMW and Aprilia. But it was also sportier than the Honda and Suzuki. While Honda and Suzuki would need completely new bikes to catch up with the top, Kawasaki would only have to give the ZX-10R a small update. But satisfied ZX-10R riders need not despair. The gap to the top is small enough to catch up with a few accessories. Because the ZX-10R has one decisive advantage. It has been on the market for a long time and there are enough parts available, including the necessary setup information. If you don't want to get involved in any experiments, take a Kawasaki and with a few simple steps you will also be at the top.

Great basis for racing bike

strong engine in the upper rev range

good chassis

Gear ratio too long

engine with little power in the lower rev range

traction control cannot keep up with the systems of the top bikes
