Honda NX500 2024

Honda NX500 2024

The Honda NX500 is a versatile A2 adventure bike that is particularly at home on tarmac and can offer a lot from everyday riding to relaxed touring. It has no major shortcomings, while at the same time offering many strengths, albeit not spectacular ones. On long journeys, the relaxed riding position and the good suspension, which also performs well on winding roads in combination with the improved brakes, are a delight. Pragmatists can look forward to low fuel consumption and a high range, and it can even cope with light off-roads.

Finely controllable, good-natured engine with linear power delivery

Good brakes

Good, well-balanced suspension

Comfortable seating position

High range

Agile handling

Never overtaxes the rider, but allows riding pleasure

Limited off-road capability

ABS not disengageable

somewhat low power and payload (185 kg) for riding with a pillion passenger

Moto Guzzi V7 II Special 2015

Moto Guzzi V7 II Special 2015

The innovations on the V7 II (engine tilt, gearbox, ABS, ASR and footrest position) are all successful and improve the machine from a technical point of view. Fortunately, nothing has been changed visually. Because the V7 II looks simply murderously smart. What has remained is the 48 hp. It would really look good with 70.

Really smart and charismatic

good-natured, sensational engine

uncomplicated but independent handling

very good ABS

it's a pity that Moto Guzzi didn't put in 70 or even 80 hp
