BMW F 800 GS Adventure 2016

The big R 1200 GS Adventure may have been the ultimate long-distance adventure bike up to now, but anyone who also values a bit of fun and sport is certainly better served by the F 800 GS Adventure.

Suzuki V-Strom 1050 2023

Suzuki V-Strom 1050 2023

With the revision and expansion of the 1050 models, Suzuki now has the right big V-Strom for everyone. Those who know from the outset that they will stay almost exclusively on the road will find the standard model a reliable travel companion or even a buddy for all days; those who want to limit themselves less in their choice of routes and also want to ride regularly on unpaved terrain will now find the DE a good choice. The main argument, however, remains this engine, which with its 107 hp and above all its rich torque leaves hardly anything to be desired.
