Suzuki SV650X 2018

Retro is trendy, retro is cool. The people at Suzuki have also recognised this, and although they are not launching many new products for 2018, they are launching a really cool one - the SV650X. Not much had to be changed to place it in the ranks of modern cafe racers: Headlight fairing, paintwork, side panels, saddle and low handlebar ends are enough for the great result. Above all, the front-wheel-oriented seating position suits it well, but does not make it significantly more uncomfortable. The suspension can only be adjusted at the rear, but the lively engine is a blast and the price is right.

With its DCT (Dual Clutch Transmission), the NC750X is the most coherent model in the NC range. With its windshield, long suspension travel and the resulting increase in comfort, it is also suitable for longer distances and even travelling. After all, why shouldn't beginners also be able to enjoy comfortable yet uncomplicated travel? Above all, the comparatively low centre of gravity takes away the fear of the visually much larger and more bulky NC750X, even for inexperienced riders. The engine is not too sporty, but the DCT, which changes gears extremely precisely and easily at the touch of a button or even fully automatically, quickly makes you forget that. The helmet compartment under the dummy tank is particularly ingenious.
