Moto Guzzi V100 Mandello S 2023

Moto Guzzi V100 Mandello S 2023

Moto Guzzi does not want to push the V100 Mandello S into the sports tourer segment and speaks of a roadster suitable for touring - and in fact it is more of a naked bike in terms of its pleasant seating position and agile handling, which conveys a surprising amount of touring character with its electrically adjustable windshield! The unique flaps are probably only noticeable at very low temperatures, but the engine perfectly matches the sovereign appearance and the brakes are brilliantly tuned. Finally, the S version pampers with a standard quickshifter including blipper, heated grips, MIA communication system, tyre pressure control and the electronically adjustable Öhlins Smart EC 2.0 suspension. Asking for just under 20,000 euros for this may therefore only seem hefty at first glance.

Kawasaki Versys 1000 SE 2022

Kawasaki Versys 1000 SE 2022

The Kawasaki Versys 1000 SE is more than equipped for the big journey: The many features pull together, because everything good about the SE is aimed at comfort and safety. Whether it's the semi-active electronic Skyhook suspension from Showa, the KIBS cornering ABS, the Kawasaki Cornering Management Function (KMCF), the cornering lights or the easy-to-read TFT colour display, the electronics leave nothing to be desired. Coupled with the comfortable seating position and the high, adjustable windshield, long stages are a pleasure. The engine is certainly not the most powerful, the weight certainly not the lowest, but overall the Versys 1000 SE is an optimal touring motorbike.
