Suzuki V-Strom 800DE 2023

It's amazing how much an unagitated, practical all-round motorbike like the Suzuki V-Strom 800DE can drive into your heart. Probably it is precisely because of this clever design with manageable electronic features that can be optimally adjusted to personal needs. Thanks to the excellent ride-by-wire system, the engine seems more powerful in the lower range than the displacement would suggest and does everything right both on and off-road. With 220 millimetres of suspension travel at the front and rear, the chassis is really well tuned for off-road, but clearly also offers an advantage for road riders on bad roads. The ergonomics are good, but tall riders should consider the higher, optional seat because of the somewhat acute knee angle.
Husqvarna 701 Enduro 2017

The Husqvarna 701 Enduro can really do a lot. It rides Hardenduro sections and is a faithful companion in everyday life. On the one hand it is reliable and suitable for everyday use, but on the other hand it is much more radical than "normal" motorbikes. On fast passages, you miss a bit of stability and wind protection / riding comfort. All in all, however, it can do more than the brochure promises.
