BMW S 1000 R 2015

Skutečnost, že S 1000 R patří mezi cenově nejdostupnější výkonné naháče, je překvapivá a velmi potěšující, i když se člověk nesmí chytit seznamu příplatkové výbavy - protože díky mnoha neodolatelným prvkům bude jistě dražší.
Kawasaki Z900 2018

Ve velmi konkurenčním segmentu naháčů hraje Z900 prim. Především jeho motor je naprosto úžasný, běží neuvěřitelně hladce a nabízí bohatý výkon ve všech oblastech otáček - jak se na japonský čtyřválec sluší a patří. Tomu odpovídá i jeho sportovní, agresivní vzhled. Obejde se bez elektronických zvonků a píšťalek, ale přesto působí velmi jistě při pronásledování zatáček, brzdění a akceleraci z nich. Nízké sedlo je výhodné zejména pro menší jezdce, ale vyšším jezdcům by mohl na dlouhých trasách chybět plošší úhel kolen. Díky nízké hmotnosti a kompaktnosti je Z900 mimořádně agilní a snadno ovladatelná. Sportovní dělo, které je mimořádně atraktivní i z hlediska ceny
