These are the best entry-level supersport motorcycles 2025

The 1000PS editorial team has already tested numerous models this year and has now selected its favorites. These entry-level supersport bikes were the most convincing.

Although entry-level supersports bikes are not a particularly large segment of the motorcycle market, they are often the gateway drug for sporty young riders. We have tested all supersports bikes up to 48 hp that were newly available and evaluated them as part of the 1000PS Top Awards.

The jury, made up of respected experts with different areas of expertise, carefully evaluated each motorcycle based on criteria such as innovation, performance and design. With a wealth of experience and a keen eye for detail, they have selected the motorcycles that stand for excellence in their respective categories. The jury is made up of former racers, experienced motorcycle testers, men and women, in short, respected experts who all know their field inside out. Their collective knowledge and rigorous assessment ensure that only the most deserving candidates are honored with this prestigious award.
