Pros and Cons in comparison
Kawasaki Ninja 650 2017
The Ninja 650 firmly stamps its predecessor (Er-6f). The engine has mastered the Euro 4 hurdle well and serves up a very usable 68 hp, the chassis is simply great for this class, and the weight reduction of 18(!) kilos compared to the ER-6f justifies reverent nods.
Suzuki GSX-R 600 2005
Despite its radical ergonomics and high-powered sports engine, the Suzuki GSX-R 600 (K5) manages to impress on the long stages of the Race Around Austria. Its engine runs smoothly and the chassis offers more than just a minimum level of comfort. In combination with the nimble Michelin tyres, it creates a sporty, direct riding experience that you wouldn't expect from an 18-year-old bike. And when it comes to fast laps on the race track, the Gixxer is still very popular. The lap time in Brno (2:17 minutes) with Bartin Mauer speaks for itself.
