Pros and Cons in comparison
Pros and Cons in comparison
Yamaha MT-07 2018
The MT-07 is an incredible fun machine that is extremely sporty to ride. The brakes pack a punch, the handling is superb and the engine is currently by far the most agile power unit in this class - and even above. The light handling fits in perfectly and the aggressive design with its many corners and edges is also appealing. Only the chassis makes the typically good compromise between comfort and sport and should probably remind you that the affordable MT-07 also has a lot to offer beginners.
Triumph Street Triple S 2018
Clean responsiveness, great sound and a driving position - the Street Triple S offers a comfortable yet sporty riding experience. The naked bike rides with exceptional precision and agility and offers a lot of comfort, even on longer rides, where you can also enjoy the large 17.4-litre fuel tank. The electronic throttle control ensures precise response and makes it possible to set different riding modes. We also found the comparatively low vibrations for a triple and the pleasant geometry of the vehicle positive. Compared to the other bikes in the test and its two siblings, the R and RS, the chassis is a little lax - but the ingenious, husky roaring three-cylinder sound was convincing and definitely made our hearts beat faster!
