Pros and Cons in comparison
BMW R 1200 GS 2015
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 when braking, fits perfectly into the overall package on the GS and can only slightly detract from its sporty character.
Suzuki V-Strom 650 2020
Mali V-Strom 650 ni le vizualno blizu velikemu modelu V-Strom 1000 z izrazitim kačjim grebenom, zlaganjem žarometov in obsežnimi instrumenti. Oprema sploh ne ustreza temu, kar razumemo pod pojmom "poceni vstop": nadzor vleke, živahen motor Euro4, harmonično vodenje in dodatni tehnični pripomočki, kot sta pomoč pri nizkih vrtljajih ali Suzukijev sistem Easy Start. Na veselje kupcev je cena ostala v razumnih mejah.
