Pros and Cons in comparison

Ducati Monster 696 2011

Touring riders, those who like to travel and synchronised riders will not enjoy it due to the lack of mounting options for luggage systems and limited space on the pillion. But modern city dwellers, nimble country dwellers and hard-working weekend sportsmen will find the 696 the lubricant for the purpose - and at a relatively reasonable price.

Low but relaxed seat height

fairly low overall weight

robust

agile

fun to ride

good braking system.

Sometimes difficult to handle

poorly readable digital instruments.

Yamaha MT-07 2014

The MT-07 is an incredible fun machine that is extremely sporty to ride. The brakes pack a punch, the handling is superb and the engine is currently by far the most agile powerplant in this class - and even above.

Extremely agile engine

very light handling

low weight

aggressively angular appearance

powerful brakes

comfortable seating position

throaty sound

extensive and easy-to-read display.

Suspension a little soft

footrests drag quickly

partly cheap plastic parts

boring telescopic fork.
