Aprilia RS 660 2021

Aprilia RS 660 2021

In 2021, the Aprilia RS 660 can be seen as the last true 600cc supersport, because with its sporty seating position and high-quality chassis components, it hits the sweet spot between suitability for everyday use and trackday potential. Thanks to the comprehensive electronics package, nothing is left to be desired on the road or on the track - and you can't complain about the powerful two-cylinder anyway. A great package for all those for whom 200+ hp superbikes are too much for everyday use.

BMW S 1000 XR 2019

BMW S 1000 XR 2019

The S 1000 XR, with its now 165 hp Supersport power unit combined with the geometry and comfort of a Bigenduro, is one of the fastest motorbikes on the public road. The extensive range of accessories makes it even faster or even more comfortable, as required. However, with a seat height of 840 mm and a long crotch arch, it is only conditionally suitable for smaller riders. The 790 mm high seat, however, remedies this. The brakes are as strong as the engine, the XR convinces with precision and above all stability. Despite the insane performance, you feel well and safe, as you would expect from a BMW.
