Pros and Cons in comparison
Kawasaki Z650 2020

Kawasaki'nin yeni Z650 ile bir araya getirdigi eksiksiz paket tek kelimeyle harikulade. Tek tek teknik bilesenler sizi sasirtmayabilir, ancak bir araya geldiklerinde herkesin keyif alacagi hos ve nötr bir motosiklet ortaya çikiyor. Sirret tuhafliklar yok - sadece virajli köy yollarinda gerçekten iyi çalisan çiplak bir motosiklet. Henüz rakiplerinde bulamadigimiz TFT ekran ve daha büyük Z modellerine yönelik yetiskin görünümü elbette bir arti. Sadece ön frenin basinç noktasi daha net tanimlanabilirdi - ancak bu fiyat araliginda her seye sahip olamazsiniz.
Suzuki SV 650 2016

Yeni SV650, ilk iki SV650 neslinin görsel minimalizmini devam ettiriyor, ancak teknik olarak dogrudan selefi olan SFV650 Gladius'u temel aliyor - son derece modern SV650'yi bir klasige dönüstüren iki mükemmel hamle. Tasarim, birçok retro dönüsüm çagina harika bir sekilde uyuyor, ancak içinde özellikle yeni baslayanlar için baslamayi kolaylastiran modern hileler de var. Öte yandan motor, ileri düzey sürücüleri de ikna edebilir, tipik V2 hissi harikadir. Sasi ve frenlerden asiri sportiflik beklememelisiniz, ancak 6400 Euro'nun biraz altindaki fiyat (Almanya'da) rekabetin yutmak zorunda kalacagi bir duyuru.
