Honda NT1100 DCT Electronic Suspension 2025

Honda NT1100 DCT Electronic Suspension 2025

The Honda NT1100 has evolved significantly from 2022 to 2025 - although already a satisfactory bike. While the basic concept of a comfortable, reliable and efficient touring bike has been retained, the numerous improvements ensure that the new NT1100 is even better equipped for long journeys. The semi-active suspension, available for the first time, expands its comfort zone enormously, enabling more riding pleasure with the same, if not higher, level of comfort. Those who already liked the 2022 model will love the 2025 version.

Suzuki V-Strom 1050DE 2024

Suzuki V-Strom 1050DE 2024

With the revision and expansion of the 1050 range to include the DE model, Suzuki now has the right large V-Strom for everyone. Those who know from the outset that they will be staying almost exclusively on the road will find a reliable travelling companion in the standard model, but those who are less restricted in their choice of routes and also want to ride regularly on unpaved terrain will now find a good choice in the DE. The machine looks robust, is easy to ride and offers a high level of long-distance comfort. The weight is too high for very serious off-road use and the travel is too short. However, as with the standard model, the main selling point remains the marvellous engine, which leaves little to be desired with its rich torque.
