Kawasaki Versys 1000 SE 2022

The Kawasaki Versys 1000 SE is more than equipped for the big journey: The many features pull together, because everything good about the SE is aimed at comfort and safety. Whether it's the semi-active electronic Skyhook suspension from Showa, the KIBS cornering ABS, the Kawasaki Cornering Management Function (KMCF), the cornering lights or the easy-to-read TFT colour display, the electronics leave nothing to be desired. Coupled with the comfortable seating position and the high, adjustable windshield, long stages are a pleasure. The engine is certainly not the most powerful, the weight certainly not the lowest, but overall the Versys 1000 SE is an optimal touring motorbike.
BMW C 400 GT 2019

With its 350 cubic capacity, 34 hp and 35 Newton metres of torque, the C 400 GT plays perfectly in the luxury scooter middle class. The weight of 212 kilos ready to ride is put into perspective when it comes to handling thanks to the low centre of gravity; instead, the powerful brakes at the front provide a surprising amount of sportiness. Nevertheless, comfort is not neglected, the seating position is comfortable, the chassis offers sufficient reserves and the workmanship is excellent. The fact that many features such as heated grips, TFT display and heated seats cost extra should not be held against the BMW scooter, because at least you have the choice of whether or not to add them.
