Suzuki V-Strom 650 2022

Suzuki V-Strom 650 2022

The small V-Strom 650 is not only visually close to the big V-Strom 1000 with its pronounced duckbill, stacked headlights and extensive instruments. The equipment does not correspond at all to what is understood by "cheap entry": traction control, lively Euro4 engine, harmonious handling and additional techno-gadgets such as Low RPM Assist or Suzuki Easy Start System. To the delight of the customers, the price is kept within reasonable limits.

Lively, economical engine

balanced handling

good wind protection

traction control and ABS as standard

looks in the style of its big sister

extensive instrumentation with gear indicator

12-volt socket in the cockpit area

good price.

Traction control in mode 2 very restrictive

Royal Enfield Meteor 350 Fireball 2021

Whether as a beginner's bike or a second bike, the Royal Enfield Meteor 350 offers a hell of a lot of motorbike at a more than fair price. But one thing is clear: if you are looking for lap times or home track records, you should get another motorbike. Everyone else is guaranteed not to go wrong with the attractively designed Meteor 350. It's a great bike that could well become a blockbuster without any real competition on the market!

Unbeatable price

engine hugs the throttle well

turn-by-turn navigation

good ergonomics for big and small

highly customisable

coherent concept

chassis and brakes fit

big enough for two

good lean angle clearance

beginner-friendly.

Workmanship and material appearance occasionally at a low level

headlights with low luminous efficacy

engine power somewhat weak for motorway journeys.
