Pros and Cons in comparison

Pros and Cons in comparison

Kawasaki Versys 650 2011

Kawasaki Versys 650 2011

With a full tank of only 211 kg, it is particularly easy to handle in the mountains. All in all, it is at home almost anywhere, an everyday bike with that certain kick. With a new headlight and modernised design, the Versys is back on the attack.

Absolutely suitable for everyday use

interesting concept

very low consumption.

Performance not too high.

Suzuki SV 650 2017

Suzuki SV 650 2017

The Suzuki SV 650 is accompanied by a long history of success that is sure to continue for a long time. Its supple V2 impresses with very smooth response and plenty of torque. Compact dimensions help to make the motorbike look very compact. This will be very convenient for beginners. The chassis also scores with playful handling. Unfortunately, the braking effect is not at the level one would expect from such a powerful vehicle.

Smooth engine

playful handling

great chassis

Brake too weak
