Pros and Cons in comparison

Yamaha Tracer 9 GT 2021

Yamaha impressively proves how wonderfully emotional a practical motorbike can be. Again and again you laugh mischievously into your helmet when you let the husky three-cylinder off the leash. An all-round successful motorbike that can replace half a motorbike garage. Unfortunately, the attempt with the unconventional display was a failure. It is impractical and difficult to read.

GT variant with great standard equipment

powerful and powerful engine with great tuning

easy handling

stable ride

comprehensive electronics package

great e-chassis

good wind protection

great pillion comfort

long range

Poorly readable and illogical display

stationary noise >95 dB (96 dB)

somewhat rough clutch

moderate responsiveness

Honda CB650R 2021

13 out of a possible 24 points mean 5th place in the large mid-range naked bike comparison test 2021. The Honda puts up a good fight against the technically more advanced competition and can leave a motorbike behind despite its position as an outsider. Pleasing looks, accessible riding and the low price make the shortcomings that were brought to light in the direct comparison fade into the background.

Neo Sports Cafe Optics still top

absolutely suitable for beginners

good price-performance ratio

engine revs up smoothly

low consumption

Too little space for tall riders

mediocre equipment

relatively chubby

little punch from the rev range
