Honda CBR 600 F 2012

The CBR600F remains just under the magic 10,000 mark and certainly doesn't disgrace Honda's mid-range. For a modest 520 euro surcharge until the end of May, it also comes with a tempting additional package consisting of a dark-tinted windshield, painted pillion seat and rear wheel cover, tank cap decor, tank pad and crankcase decor set.

You like a Honda GoldWing - or you don't. For many people, the bulky, 421-kilo ship is simply too heavy. And that's perfectly legitimate, after all, not everyone can handle such a hunk. But once the Gold Wing is in motion, it is surprisingly easy to ride, thanks to the silky six-cylinder boxer engine. The braking system is also extremely reliable and precise. Of course, you can't demand too much sportiness given the limited lean angle, but you hardly have to make any concessions when it comes to the luxury features such as the sound system, navigation system, ventilation, heating and luggage compartment. And the 40th Anniversary Edition also looks very good with its noble paintwork.

sound system
