Pros and Cons in comparison

Yamaha MT-07 2017

Even after three years, the Yamaha MT-07 is still a public favourite. No one else beats such a price-performance ratio. The two-cylinder engine is powerful, but can be dosed very gently at low revs. The display is also one of the best in this class, with good readability. Only the chassis is disappointing. In a sporty riding style, it is simply too soft, which can cause the MT-07 to sway.

Here comes a real firecracker from China on the market! The 800 NK shines with over-complete equipment; this bike has features that are not available elsewhere in this class. The engine is a joy dispenser with charisma, the chassis is well-balanced and the brakes are correctly dimensioned. Smaller tuning points still need to be tinkered with and the traction control will probably be included in the next model year. However, the package is more than tempting even in the current configuration, considering the low entry price.
