Pros and Cons in comparison

Pros and Cons in comparison

Yamaha XSR700 2015

Yamaha XSR700 2015

With the XSR700, Yamaha has once again hit the jackpot. The retro look with modern elements is currently very popular with customers. The fact that it is based on the affordable MT-07 is not at all a problem, as the entry-level bike is known for being extremely sporty and agile. The XSR700's comfortable chassis and upright riding position are a perfect match. The price of almost 9,000 euros seems steep at first glance, especially in comparison to the MT-07, but the improved appearance and exclusivity make up for the money.

Very agile engine

comfortable yet sporty chassis

comfortably upright seating position

cool retro look

complete instrumentation

good brakes

many accessories available

Suspension too soft for extremely sporty riding

digital rev counter difficult to read

much higher price than the basic MT-07.

Suzuki SV 650 2018

Suzuki SV 650 2018

The Suzuki SV 650 is accompanied by a long history of success that is sure to continue for a long time. Its supple V2 impresses with very smooth response and plenty of torque. Compact dimensions help to make the motorbike look very compact. This will be very convenient for beginners. The chassis also scores with playful handling. Unfortunately, the braking effect is not at the level one would expect from such a powerful vehicle.

Smooth engine

playful handling

great chassis

Brake too weak
