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

BMW S 1000 R 2016

BMW S 1000 R 2016

With the BMW S 1000 R, you notice both the close relationship to the S 1000 RR superbike and the endeavour to equip the machine with a high degree of comfort for country roads and everyday use. Accordingly, the 1000cc four-cylinder power unit is brute and yet easily controllable, and the seating position is correspondingly sporty and comfortable. The fact that the S 1000 R is one of the most affordable power naked bikes is surprising and very pleasing, although one must not get hold of the list of optional extras - because thanks to the many irresistible features, it will certainly be more expensive.

Powerful and well controllable engine
