Honda CBR600RR 2024

The Honda CBR600RR is a sporty bike with impressive riding pleasure and precise handling. The well-adjusted suspension, powerful brakes and reliable quickshifter ensure an excellent riding experience, especially on winding roads. The comfortable seating position and the modern display also contribute to the positive overall impression. However, there are also some weaknesses: The heat generated by the under-seat exhaust can be uncomfortable in city traffic and when travelling at slow speeds, and the engine's power at low revs leaves a lot to be desired. In addition, the soft suspension can reach its limits on the race track. Overall, the CBR600RR is an excellent bike for sporty riders who are willing to make these compromises.
Yamaha MT-09 2016

The Yamaha MT-09 did not need to be reinvented for the coming season - it already was extremely well done almost four years ago. Instead, the Japanese focus on fine-tuning and adding practical, contemporary gimmicks such as traction control and automatic shifting. Due to the Euro4 standard, however, the engine management has been changed once again and offers an emphatically powerful but well controllable power delivery in standard mode; the power explosion of the first generation is now no longer offered even by the sharper A mode. The biggest change, recognisable at first glance, is the, in my opinion, extremely successful design with the more aggressive front and the newly designed rear. All in all, an even snazzier naked bike that was clearly built for the fun of motorcycling.
