Benda Redstone 1000 R2 2026

Benda Redstone 1000 R2 2026

The Benda Redstone 1000 R2 boasts 102 Horsepower, but it’s the suspension that really stands out. It keeps this heavy beast steady on tarmac and absorbs even the roughest bumps and hard landings off-road. The Work, Standard and Sport modes allow the immense engine power to be put to good use, whilst four-wheel drive, two differential locks, beadlocks and a winch ensure serious off-road capability. The aggressively intervening ABS may annoy ambitious off-road riders, and in tight terrain the engine power is more of a luxury than a necessity. Anyone looking for a powerful all-rounder might still ask themselves: how often do you get a workhorse, an off-road rocket and a rolling heating pad all in one package?

Yamaha MT-09 2026

Yes, Yamaha has produced a really leiwandes bike. All the criticisms of its predecessor have been successfully revised without neutering the wild and playful nature of the MT-09. The fourth generation is more mature, more precise and more polished, rides more neutrally and is more stable without losing its light-footedness. A marvellous bike that currently offers an almost unbeatable price-performance ratio thanks to many detail improvements and has now even become really pretty. The Yamaha dealers won't be able to save themselves from orders after test rides. Let's hope that availability is guaranteed, because the new MT-09 is the definition of the word "direct hit"!
