Pros and Cons in comparison
Honda NX500 E-Clutch 2026
On the NX500, the E-Clutch really comes into its own, particularly on slow sections and on loose gravel. Less experienced off-road riders need to worry less about the clutch and can concentrate more on their line, balance and body position. This makes the NX500 – which is already an accessible adventure bike – even easier to handle.
BMW F 450 GS 2026
The BMW F 450 GS Trophy is far more than just a scaled-down version of the full-size GS. It combines accessible A2-licence-friendly power with a surprising amount of riding pleasure, high-quality features and genuine adventure flair. The new twin-cylinder engine impresses with its character, whilst the Easy Ride Clutch noticeably makes everyday riding and light off-road riding easier, without taking control away from the rider. The little GS is particularly at home on winding roads, gravel tracks and rough mountain passes. Its limitations become apparent at motorway speeds, during heavy off-road use, when carrying a payload and in terms of wind protection. Nevertheless, there’s a surprising amount of GS in the F 450 – a well-rounded everyday and touring companion for beginners, those returning to motorcycling and experienced riders who deliberately want to avoid excessive weight and power.
