Pros and Cons in comparison
Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R 2021
Kawasaki offers a mature overall package with the Ninja ZX-10R in the 2021 model year, which with the new front end also really looks like 2021. The bike offers surprisingly good space for the rider and you feel comfortable in the saddle. The rev-happy engine leaves nothing to be desired - except perhaps more discipline in the part-load range. To make the project a success, Kawasaki relies on high-quality ingredients: Showa suspension, Öhlins steering dampers, Brembo brakes with 330 discs and high-quality electronics. Thanks to the good electronics and the superior engine, the Ninja ZX-10R even cuts quite a figure on country roads - as long as you are willing to suffer a little in terms of seating position due to the concept.
BMW M 1000 R 2023
The M 1000 R is definitely well done and the whole package fits. Even though it is certainly aimed more at sporty riders, the bike can also prove itself well on longer country road rides with minor restrictions in terms of riding comfort. The lower, straight handlebars and forward seating position in combination with the higher footrests automatically result in a sportier dynamic that does not give rise to couch feelings, especially on longer rides. On the other hand, there is good contact with the front wheel and sufficient lean angle freedom. In combination with the powerful drive, the Hyper Naked definitely plays in the top league. Apart from slight vibrations, the powerful RR engine is a force to be reckoned with in the naked segment. The new electronics help even less experienced riders to release the concentrated power in a controlled manner with conservative settings.
