Pros and Cons in comparison

Ducati 1199 Panigale S 2012

Panigale buyers will certainly have a lot of fun with the Ducati, but at the beginning of the season a lot of work has to be put into a functioning setup. On the track, we are sure that with enough know-how in the backpack, the Panigale will be able to show its full potential and the lap times will be pushed to a new level.

Plenty of power

quality traction point

great ABS

electronically adjustable suspension

light weight

immaculate brakes.

Very high purchase price.

Yamaha Tracer 9 GT+ 2024

The Yamaha Tracer 9 GT+ impresses as a modern crossover bike with innovative technology, a powerful three-cylinder engine and a high level of riding comfort. It is aimed at riders who value riding pleasure, advanced Rider Assistance Systems and touring suitability. Minor weaknesses in the operating concept and a high price tarnish the overall picture slightly, without detracting from the positive overall impression.

Fun, revvy engine

Agile handling

Top quickshifter

Practical touring features

Well-functioning adaptive cruise control, which is a pleasure to use in practice

Huge, easy-to-read TFT display

Good operation of the electronics.

Vibrations on the footrests

very cumbersome navi integration into the display

filigree-looking windscreen that wobbles noticeably at high speeds

three-cylinder sound sometimes too intrusive for sensitive riders
