Harley-Davidson Sportster XL 1200X Forty-Eight 2018

If you look up the word bobber in the dictionary, a picture of the Harley-Davidson 48 is likely to come up. In our comparison, thanks to the long Sportster history and clever marketing, it is probably the most authentic bike of the four test motorbikes. And it's the only one that doesn't have the term "bobber" in its name - because it doesn't need it. Nothing about it has been softened to make comfort-consumed customers happy. When stationary, the motorbike vibrates and the gearbox makes a loud "clunk" with every gear change. The Harley-Davidson 48 is raw, uncompromising and simply oldschool - and cool. Unthinkable with other manufacturers, normal with Harley-Davidson - thanks to clever marketing! Nevertheless, the Forty-Eight rides like a relatively modern motorbike. The V2 has powerful pressure, which the brakes can easily handle. Even though the chassis is designed for comfort, we were surprised at how sportily the Sportster can be moved through curvy terrain.
Honda SH125i 2020

The Honda SH125i for the 2020 model year has truly earned the designation "new". While it remains true to its long-standing line, it scores under its newly designed dress with numerous changes that make the already popular city runabout even more attractive. More storage space, low fuel consumption and enough power for everyday life speak for the SH125i, only the lack of the practical glove compartment and the slightly reflective glass of the LC display catch our eye negatively. But that's not enough to depress the positive impression, because the Honda SH remains the pragmatist par excellence that always runs and, above all, functions as you expect it to.
