Pros and Cons in comparison

BMW S 1000 R 2017

BMW's universal talent also got better in 2017. The BMW offers the widest range of use and an exceptionally cultivated engine, a perfect gearbox and the best shift assistant in the field. It drives simply but quickly. You sit rather low in the vehicle.

Best shift assistant in the nakedbike league

Universal motorbike without any real weaknesses

Powerful engine, awesome sound, great handling

On the racetrack a slightly too inactive riding position

Very wide range of equipment and accessory options

Very powerful brakes

Semi-active suspension makes setup fiddling superfluous

Original equipment tyres not the finest premium goods

Inactive seating position on racetrack

Triumph Speed Triple RS 2018

The new Speed Triple has a few things over its predecessor. It is stronger and smarter than the old model, revs higher and is lighter. Switching to the new model is worthwhile if you value these aspects and have the necessary change at hand. In return, you get a versatile motorbike that combines riding comfort for longer country road rides with the riding fun you want for the racetrack. Agile, handy, smart and powerful. This is the best way to describe the Speedy and it will definitely find at least as much favour among its fans as its predecessor.

New technology

Well-functioning electronic aids

Proven engine further developed

More power and speed

High-quality chassis

Many adjustment options

Comfortable seating position

Many optional equipment options

Lack of windshield

High weight

Little ground clearance
