Pros and Cons in comparison

Suzuki GSX-S1000 2025

Suzuki GSX-S1000 2025

After hundreds of kilometres on the road and on the track, one thing remains clear: the Suzuki GSX-S1000 is not the most extreme, not the fastest, not the most high-tech naked bike. It is something else - it is the most honest. It is a wonderfully mature machine. With high-quality and reliable ingredients, a look full of character and a great engine. Thanks to the tough competition, Suzuki has also brought the price into realistic spheres.

superior engine

balanced handling

bold design

active riding position

good price

breathtakingly good quickshifter

excellent reponsiveness

stable and confidence-inspiring riding dynamics

balanced compromise between sport and everyday use

solid workmanship at a high level.

no 6-axis IMU - no cornering ABS

seat too soft for sporty feedback

Kawasaki Z900 SE 2022

Kawasaki Z900 SE 2022

The SE is a worthy further development of the already very sporty and good-natured Kawasaki Z900. But now sporty owners can also do fast laps on trackdays without making any major compromises. The components from Öhlins and Brembo bring real added value, so that the only thing missing is the quickshifter.

powerful engine

high-quality chassis components

strong brake

good ergonomics

easy handling on the racetrack

missing quickshifter
