Yamaha XSR700 2015

Yamaha XSR700 2015

With the XSR700, Yamaha has once again hit the jackpot. The retro look with modern elements is currently very popular with customers. The fact that it is based on the affordable MT-07 is not at all a problem, as the entry-level bike is known for being extremely sporty and agile. The XSR700's comfortable chassis and upright riding position are a perfect match. The price of almost 9,000 euros seems steep at first glance, especially in comparison to the MT-07, but the improved appearance and exclusivity make up for the money.

Very agile engine

comfortable yet sporty chassis

comfortably upright seating position

cool retro look

complete instrumentation

good brakes

many accessories available

Suspension too soft for extremely sporty riding

digital rev counter difficult to read

much higher price than the basic MT-07.

At first glance, the Husqvarna Svartpilen 701 looks like a classic second motorbike. But in the saddle, it presents itself as a pleasing and accessible universal talent. It makes experienced riders happy and pleases beginners in equal measure. The surcharge on the 401 is considerable, but it pays off at the latest at higher speeds on great motorbike routes. There, the Svartpilen 701 can go at a fast pace!

Great chassis with smooth handling - yet not nervous

Engine is a real gem for single-cylinder fans

Pleasant seating position in city traffic

Pleases even on bad asphalt - very wide range of use.

Vibrations are a little annoying on long motorway journeys

hard seat for driver and passenger

cockpit not very easy to read.
