Pros and Cons in comparison

Suzuki V-Strom 800 2026

The Suzuki V-Strom 800 impresses in the travel test with its great balance. It is relaxed to ride in everyday life, remains comfortable on longer journeys and delivers more riding pleasure on winding roads than its sober appearance would suggest. It is precisely this versatility that makes it a strong travelling companion.

easy to handle, yet fun and powerful two-cylinder engine

high level of ride comfort

relaxed ergonomics

good-natured and predictable riding performance

balanced touring qualities

confident on varying tarmac surfaces

Suspension clearly comfort-orientated at very ambitious speeds

limited maximum lean angle

only suitable to a limited extent for rough off-road use (ABS cannot be disengaged)

wind protection for tall riders only okay, not brilliant

Yamaha Tracer 7 2025

The new Tracer 7 impresses with its harmoniously tuned CP2 engine and playful, easy handling. Sit on it, ride off and explore the world - that's the Tracer 7. The new chassis, more electronics and suspension do it good. We miss the quickshifter, which is only available as an option for an extra charge; Y-AMT will not be available until 2026.

Torque-orientated engine

agile handling

improved chassis including suspension

comfortable ergonomics

pleasing appearance

cruise control as standard
