Pros and Cons in comparison
Pros and Cons in comparison
Aprilia Tuono 660 2021
The Tuono delivers on the bends what the name promises. The sporty naked bike rides precisely and you enjoy the sporty corner chase. At the exit of the bend, however, one wishes for more emotion and adrenaline. The sporty expectation is naturally also created by the Tuono's racy appearance and cheeky demeanour. But this expectation is unfortunately not quite fulfilled in the saddle.
Yamaha MT-07 2018
The MT-07 is an incredible fun machine that is extremely sporty to ride. The brakes pack a punch, the handling is superb and the engine is currently by far the most agile power unit in this class - and even above. The light handling fits in perfectly and the aggressive design with its many corners and edges is also appealing. Only the chassis makes the typically good compromise between comfort and sport and should probably remind you that the affordable MT-07 also has a lot to offer beginners.
