Honda CTX 700 N 2014

Although the CTX700N is a colourful bird, it is currently only available in black or white. And at a price for which other manufacturers cannot offer nearly as much technology, quality, rideability and fun. A really refreshing experiment - successful!

Extremely low fuel consumption

nimble, agile driving

automatic transmission

interesting driving dynamics.

Lack of half fairing

no pannier set as standard.

Kawasaki Z650 2017

The Kawasaki Z 650 is the tip of the middle class for small male and female riders. On its compact dimensions, you probably won't feel comfortable as a giant. Heart-warming feelings, however, come from the engine, which delights with a very smooth pull. On the chassis side, a Kawasaki-typical tight set-up was chosen, which finds a great compromise in everyday use. The negative display is very easy to read and is reminiscent of its predecessor, the ER-6n - very nice!

Even power delivery

sporty chassis

compact dimensions

negative display

a little too small for tall people
