Pros and Cons in comparison

Yamaha MT-10 Tourer Edition 2021

Even the standard MT-10 is a very universal motorbike that can also be used for extensive touring thanks to its superb engine tuning. With the Tourer Edition, the motorbike becomes a refreshing sports tourer. The add-on parts offer high quality and you can "tour" comfortably and unpackably sporty up to a speed of 200. Also a good choice for taller riders. A great enrichment.

Great tuned engine

very easy and comfortable to ride in the lower rev range - adrenaline without end in the upper rev range

stable even at high speeds despite luggage system

sporty, cheeky look

Windshield not adjustable. Unpleasant wind noise with a body height of 185 cm.

Kawasaki Ninja 1000SX 2020

A sports tourer of the old school. The Kawasaki Ninja 1000SX fulfils all the points you would expect from this bike category. Added to this is a comprehensive electronics package that offers everything you could wish for when travelling - and at no extra charge! The fact that the operation is perhaps not quite as intuitive as the competition already manages, is forgiven at the latest when you take a look at the price tag.

silky four-cylinder

comfortable yet sporty ergonomics

wind protection

standard electronics package

lots of stability thanks to full fairing

very accessible.

Engine needs revs

electronics could be more user-friendly

windshield only adjustable with two hands
