Pros and Cons in comparison

Pros and Cons in comparison

Yamaha MT-07 2018

Yamaha MT-07 2018

The MT-07 is a wonderful fun machine that is extremely sporty to ride. The brakes pack a punch and the engine is currently by far the most agile powerplant in this class - and perhaps even above. The light handling fits in perfectly and the chassis makes the understandable compromise between comfort and sport - reminding us that the affordable MT-07 should also have a lot to offer beginners. Only the design with halogen headlights and conventional forks is rather old-fashioned.

High-torque two-cylinder

well-done chassis set-up

easy to ride

pleasant seating position

large selection of accessories

price-performance ratio is right

Optics and fittings already look grey

controls on the handlebars a little cheap

Kawasaki Z 800 2015

Kawasaki Z 800 2015

Overall, the Z800 delivered a sensational performance. Considering the fact that nothing was changed or optimised on the vehicle apart from the Remus rear silencer, a super final result.

Eye-catching, chunky look

confident acceleration

relaxed geometry

powerful brakes

Limited freedom of movement for the legs.
