Pros and Cons in comparison
Pros and Cons in comparison
Triumph Speed Triple 1050 2013
More power, more kilos, more rubber . It is certainly not the most manageable, which makes climbing the Tyrolean mountains over hundreds of hairpin bends exhausting at times. But it is more mature than the Street Triple, knows how to glide along the valley smoothly and without getting on your nerves, and for some reason feels more trustworthy and secure.
Yamaha MT-09 SP 2022
The fun bike MT-09 is at its best in the SP version! The extremely fun, lively three-cylinder engine feels like more than just 119 hp thanks to the abundance of torque. Add to that terrific, bike-like handling and phenomenal, finely controllable brakes. The upright, rear-facing riding position doesn't take away as much front-wheel feel in the MT-09 SP, as the high-quality chassis gives clean feedback from the road and rides every radius with stability. Unfortunately, as is typical for Yamaha, the clarity of the TFT display and the operating concept of the lush electronics leave a lot to be desired. The seat and pillion comfort could also be better. Otherwise, however, the MT-09 SP is the (almost) perfect bike for massive riding fun.
