Suzuki GSX-S1000S Katana 2020

Novi Suzuki GSX-S1000S Katana temelji na golem modelu GSX-S1000 in zato prepriča z vso kakovostjo in notranjimi vrednotami tipičnega japonskega stroja. Vizualno ima Katana poleg tega vse potrebno, da postane klasika; navsezadnje je prva, ki je prevzela slog osemdesetih let prejšnjega stoletja. Vozniški položaj je presenetljivo udoben, visoko krmilo pa omogoča prijetno upravljanje. Z nizkim sprednjim oklepom ne postane izrazit potovalni stroj, vsekakor pa velja za crossover kolo, ki odlično združuje retro, naked in touring.
BMW R 1200 GS 2016

A GS is at home almost anywhere - but only to a limited extent on the racetrack. It's a pleasure to feel the power of the partially water-cooled boxer twin cylinder on the exit of the bend - 125 hp only seems much weaker on paper than 150 or even 160 hp on the competition. With 125 Newton metres of torque, the acceleration from the bottom is superb anyway and the GS, at 238 kilos ready to ride, does not carry too much flab despite its bulky appearance. In very tight corners, the low centre of gravity also has a positive effect - the BMW R 1200 GS is very hard to crack! Even the front telelever suspension, which suppresses the front wheel's tendency to sink in under braking, fits perfectly into the GS's overall package and only slightly detracts from its sporty character.
