Kawasaki Z1000SX 2019

The nakedbike genes of the original Z1000 have fortunately been retained in the right areas, but the bike has been consistently tuned for touring suitability. An adapted seating position with a clearly comfortable seat (also and especially for the pillion rider), a finely controllable engine and sufficient wind protection provide the optimal basis for long, extensive and not least sporty rides. The rather compact knee angle might cause some of you to take an early break on long rides. In return, however, you get an upright riding position in which you can freely develop your upper body. The Z1000SX is a reduced to the essential touring bike with a top price-performance ratio! One thing in particular stood out: you don't always have to have all the electronic "helpers" on board to create a sporty bike that rides very well - a TOP sports tourer at a favourable price compared to the other two bikes!
Aprilia Tuono V4 1100 2022

Like its predecessor, the Aprilia Tuono V4 is a naked bike and not an explicit touring machine. However, the technicians from Noale have very cleverly raised the handlebars compared to the Factory version, fitted a more comfortable saddle and attached a larger windshield. This means that the Tuono V4 still looks really smart, but can actually go on bigger tours than its extremely sporty sister. The suspension of the normal Tuono V4 has to do without electronic adjustability (which would make perfect sense on a touring machine), but the Sachs suspension elements are fully adjustable. Handling, on the other hand, is wonderfully sporty thanks to the stable chassis, and the brakes can be applied firmly without appearing too aggressive. There is no lack of electronic helpers, while the standard cruise control emphasises the touring character, wheelie and launch control make it clear that the "Tourono V4" also wants to let it rip!
