Pros and Cons in comparison

Suzuki V-Strom 1050 2023

With the revision and expansion of the 1050 models, Suzuki now has the right big V-Strom for everyone. Those who know from the outset that they will stay almost exclusively on the road will find the standard model a reliable travel companion or even a buddy for all days; those who want to limit themselves less in their choice of routes and also want to ride regularly on unpaved terrain will now find the DE a good choice. The main argument, however, remains this engine, which with its 107 hp and above all its rich torque leaves hardly anything to be desired.

high-quality electronics package

excellent ergonomics

Yamaha Tracer 9 GT+ 2024

The Yamaha Tracer 9 GT+ impresses as a modern crossover bike with innovative technology, a powerful three-cylinder engine and a high level of riding comfort. It is aimed at riders who value riding pleasure, advanced Rider Assistance Systems and touring suitability. Minor weaknesses in the operating concept and a high price tarnish the overall picture slightly, without detracting from the positive overall impression.

Fun, revvy engine

Agile handling

Top quickshifter

Practical touring features

Well-functioning adaptive cruise control, which is a pleasure to use in practice
