Pros and Cons in comparison

Pros and Cons in comparison

Honda CB500X 2016

Honda CB500X 2016

Good wind protection, a comfortable, somewhat higher seating position and a relatively comfortable chassis make the CB500X look good even on long journeys. The extra price compared to the naked CB500F is therefore justified and well invested - especially as the CB500X remains unbeatably affordable!

Sophisticated looks

efficient windscreen

high speeds possible

fuel economy

Combined ABS.

The front single disc is slightly weakened when driving in a sporty manner.

Kawasaki Versys 650 2010

With a full tank of only 211 kg, it is particularly easy to handle in the mountains. All in all, it is at home almost anywhere, an everyday bike with that certain kick. With a new headlight and modernised design, the Versys is back on the attack.

Absolutely suitable for everyday use

interesting concept

very low consumption.

Performance not too high.
