Pros and Cons in comparison
Suzuki GSX-8R 2025
The GSX-8R brings a breath of fresh air to the mid-range sports faction - without appearing too radical or nervous. Even though it has a sporty appearance, it is very beginner-friendly at its core: the same 776 cc twin cylinder as in the V-Strom delivers linear, predictable propulsion. The riding position is sportier, but not aggressive - ideal for beginners looking for a more dynamic look and crisper road holding without having to fight with superbikes. It conveys control and confidence, ideal for first or new experiences on the tarmac.
Kawasaki Z650 2023
The Kawasaki Z 650 is probably the most docile motorbike in the naked bike segment. And that is to be understood in an absolutely positive way - as long as you are not particularly tall and heavy. It is slim, light, agile and accessible. All the controls, but also the engine, do not overwhelm. If you are looking for spectacular performance, you should go for the Z 900, but if you are looking for a nimble and easy-to-ride motorbike, you will be satisfied.
