Pros and Cons in comparison

Husqvarna Svartpilen 701 2020

At first glance, the Husqvarna Svartpilen 701 looks like a classic second motorbike. But in the saddle, it presents itself as a pleasing and accessible universal talent. It makes experienced riders happy and pleases beginners in equal measure. The surcharge on the 401 is considerable, but it pays off at the latest at higher speeds on great motorbike routes. There, the Svartpilen 701 can go at a fast pace!

Great chassis with smooth handling - yet not nervous

Engine is a real gem for single-cylinder fans

Pleasant seating position in city traffic

Pleases even on bad asphalt - very wide range of use.

Vibrations are a little annoying on long motorway journeys

hard seat for driver and passenger

cockpit not very easy to read.

Honda CMX500 Rebel 2022

Riding fun and beginner-friendliness - Honda manages to combine these attributes in the Rebel 500. Thanks to its low weight and compact wheel dimensions, it brings joy on the country road and will not overtax anyone in everyday life. No longer an insider tip for cruiser fans!
