Pros and Cons in comparison
Yamaha MT-03 2023
The MT-03 remains Yamaha's most accessible and pragmatic Hyper Naked in the segment. It scores with its low seat height, the easily controllable power of the two-cylinder and at the same time offers enough comfort for commuters. What it may lack in sportiness, it makes up for in comfort, making it perfect for people looking for a well-functioning motorbike with a brutal look. However, you shouldn't be too big, and you shouldn't aspire to keep up with the other models in the MT range at the angle - because that's not what it was designed for. The 2020 model year is thus a coherent update that is sure to make its buyers happy.
Suzuki DR-Z4SM 2026
The eye-catching graphics from Suzuki Austria suit this bike well. For me, however, the joy of life doesn’t come from the graphics, but from the ride itself. The DR-Z4SM succeeds in combining a familiar, solid feel with genuine playfulness. On the one hand, it offers a predictable riding experience; on the other, it has enough supermoto character to ensure the fun doesn’t stop straight away, even as your experience grows. Those looking primarily for maximum power will continue to look towards more powerful machines. I’d take this Suzuki for a test ride because of its seamless interplay of features: precise handling, smooth gear changes and an engine that remains easy to read whether you’re opening or closing the throttle. My brief test doesn’t provide a long-term assessment, but it does offer a clear personal verdict. I felt comfortable in the saddle and would have liked to have carried on riding.
