Pros and Cons in comparison

Suzuki GSX-R 600 2012

The above average handling and carefree acceleration manoeuvres with the Suzuki kind of do it to you! For newcomers to the ring, this is a good bike to consider, as it is easy to ride, forgiving of mistakes and also has enough power, which is easy to control to boot!

Safe driving feeling and yet of high sportiness

appears agile

low weight

Relatively low power for the racetrack

relatively slow on the straights

Yamaha MT-07 2015

Even after three years, the Yamaha MT-07 is still a public favourite. No one else beats such a price-performance ratio. The two-cylinder engine is powerful, but can be dosed very gently at low revs. The display is also one of the best in this class, with good readability. Only the chassis is disappointing. In a sporty riding style, it is simply too soft, which can cause the MT-07 to sway.

great motor

easy to read display

low price

Chassis too soft
