Kawasaki Z900 RS 2018
The Kawasaki Z900 RS is the perfect blend of classic design and modern technology. The silky-smooth four-cylinder engine offers linear power delivery and impressive elasticity in all rev ranges. The suspension combines comfort and stability, ideal for long distances and sporty rides. Despite the lack of wind protection, the Z900 RS impresses with a comfortable riding position and agile handling characteristics. Visually, it is reminiscent of the legendary Z1, while modern features such as traction control and high-quality workmanship round off the overall package. For anyone looking for a retro look with modern performance, the Z900 RS is a reliable and versatile companion - both for everyday use and when touring.
Yamaha MT-09 2013
The Yamaha MT-09 did not need to be reinvented for the coming season - it already was extremely well done almost four years ago. Instead, the Japanese focus on fine-tuning and adding practical, contemporary gimmicks such as traction control and automatic shifting. Due to the Euro4 standard, however, the engine management has been changed once again and offers an emphatically powerful but well controllable power delivery in standard mode; the power explosion of the first generation is now no longer offered even by the sharper A mode. The biggest change, recognisable at first glance, is the, in my opinion, extremely successful design with the more aggressive front and the newly designed rear. All in all, an even snazzier naked bike that was clearly built for the fun of motorcycling.
