Pros and Cons in comparison

Yamaha Tracer 9 GT 2021

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.

Suzuki V-Strom 1050 XT 2020

Even though the new V-Strom 1050 has moved up in price to a league in which it has to be compared more with the competition than before, it has remained true to itself despite the most modern safety features, or rather, it has remained an uncomplicated motorbike that is ready for the big journey. Its favourite terrain is the road, which, thanks to the good chassis, can also be bad and bumpy. Off-road passages are no problem either, but those who regularly seek rougher terrain will be less likely to end up with the Suzuki due to its mighty weight. On paved roads, however, the mass can be moved surprisingly quickly and effortlessly. The addictive engine, the successful retro design and the extreme suitability for touring make the Suzuki V-Strom 1050 XT a top motorbike for long journeys.
