Suzuki GSX-8R 2025

Suzuki GSX-8R 2025

The GSX-8R brings a breath of fresh air to the mid-range sports faction - without appearing too radical or nervous. Even though it has a sporty appearance, it is very beginner-friendly at its core: the same 776 cc twin cylinder as in the V-Strom delivers linear, predictable propulsion. The riding position is sportier, but not aggressive - ideal for beginners looking for a more dynamic look and crisper road holding without having to fight with superbikes. It conveys control and confidence, ideal for first or new experiences on the tarmac.

Sporty look with naked bike comfort

Suitable for touring thanks to good leg ergonomics

Stable rear-view mirrors

Accessible seat height

Rather nervous at low revs

Rough quickshifter

Honda CBR650R E-Clutch 2024

Honda CBR650R E-Clutch 2024

The Honda CBR650R is a great mid-range supersports bike for the country road, which manages the balancing act between sportiness and accessibility very well. But other bikes in this class also manage this. What makes the CBR special is the old-school in-line four-cylinder engine at its heart. You won't win any acceleration races with it, but the in-line four inspires with its silky power delivery and screaming revviness in the upper rev range. And with the new E-Clutch technology, you can get the most out of the engine with crisp gear changes and massively increase comfort in city traffic thanks to the electronic operation of the clutch.

Screeching, "old-school" in-line four-cylinder that tempts you to wind out a gear

stable, but not overly hard fork

well-tuned brakes

sporty, but not too extreme ergonomics

great e-clutch system

Beautiful TFT display with intuitive operating concept

Shock could be more stable when leaning

Knee angle can be quite sharp with lengthy legs
