Pros and Cons in comparison

Husqvarna Svartpilen 801 2024

The Husqvarna Svartpilen 801 is a sporty naked bike with modern Advanced Rider Assistance Systems that shines particularly well on winding roads. Its lively engine and firm suspension make it agile and dynamic, but somewhat demanding on long lengths. For riders looking for a retro look with modern technology and sporty riding performance, it is an exciting but demanding choice.

Great two-cylinder engine with power in all situations

outstanding electronics for the class (partly at extra charge)

Quickshifter standard

good workmanship

coherent overall package

low fuel consumption

visual highlights (rear frame, exhaust)

good price-performance ratio

agile handling

precise brakes

versatile use

A little unsettled at low revs

stiff suspension and firm seat uncomfortable on long lengths

front brake a little snappy for inexperienced riders

windshield only visual, no functional wind protection

only one colour variant available

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.

powerful motor

high-quality electronics package

long-distance comfort

High weight
