Kawasaki Ninja ZX-6R 2025

The Kawasaki ZX-6R 2025 is a bike that is more than just a technical evolution. It is a piece of motorbike history, a relic from a time when 600cc supersports dominated the roads - and it shows why we should never forget this era. With stable geometry, a harmonious engine, butter-smooth transmission and a character that inspires confidence, it is a revelation for both ambitious trackday riders and sporty country road fans. You get off, look back - and have that grin on your face that no other bike produces so consistently.

Powerful 636cc engine with plenty of grunt and power

well-functioning quickshifter at high rpms

good handling and pleasant ride feel

sportily tuned suspension

reliable brakes

Missing Ride-by-Wire system - therefore no blipper

seat too soft and low for the race track

ABS lines not optimal for track use

Suzuki GSX-R 1000 2015

Suzuki GSX-R 1000 2015

Many victorious years in international motorbike racing have made the GSX-R1000 superbike a legend - and a somewhat grey model. Real innovations or even revolutions are a long time ago, and the last updates were limited to visual upgrades, such as the MotoGP Replica paint scheme. It may look fresh and snappy, but in the segment of racers that have now advanced to technologically advanced and correspondingly expensive hyper-sports bikes, the GSX-R now looks like a slightly greying prototype. It still rides well, fast and harmoniously, you can just tell it's mature - and that's meant in a positive way. Nevertheless, we are already waiting for the next generation.

Sophisticated technology

wealth of experience from years of successful racing

wide range of accessories

greyed model
