Suzuki GSX-S1000F 2018

Suzuki has chosen a somewhat wooden name for the GSX-S 1000 F, but otherwise the ingredients have been finely put together. The handlebars and the bike's stance are strongly reminiscent of a naked bike. The chassis as well as the engine will delight sports bike fans. A truly worthy sports tourer.
Ducati Monster 2023

You can always argue about the looks and the lack of a trellis frame, but the current Monster is anything but ugly. Basically, it would be a great everyday naked bike with pleasant ergonomics and a braking system that does not surprise even the inexperienced. The rather soft chassis can also be considered an acceptable compromise, but for a Ducati it is rather surprising that at least the front fork was not tuned a little tighter. Unfortunately, the charismatic engine bucks strongly at low revs and thus only shows its wonderful V2 character on the country road. All in all, however, this reflects the overall image of the Monster very well: a typical Ducati that is also good for everyday riding in terms of chassis and brakes.
