Pros and Cons in comparison

Husqvarna Svartpilen 801 2024

The Husqvarna Svartpilen 801 is a sporty naked bike with modern Advanced Rider Assistance Systems that shines particularly well on winding roads. Its lively engine and firm suspension make it agile and dynamic, but somewhat demanding on long lengths. For riders looking for a retro look with modern technology and sporty riding performance, it is an exciting but demanding choice.

Great two-cylinder engine with power in all situations

outstanding electronics for the class (partly at extra charge)

Quickshifter standard

good workmanship

coherent overall package

low fuel consumption

visual highlights (rear frame, exhaust)

good price-performance ratio

agile handling

precise brakes

versatile use

A little unsettled at low revs

stiff suspension and firm seat uncomfortable on long lengths

front brake a little snappy for inexperienced riders

windshield only visual, no functional wind protection

only one colour variant available

BMW F 900 GS 2024

The F 900 GS feels completely different to its direct predecessor, the F 850 GS. Instead of a sedate all-rounder, with the Enduro Pro package it has become an agile adventure bike with considerable off-road capabilities. Uncomplicated yet powerful, it can be ridden on and off the beaten track. However, it only really comes into its own with a few accessories. The Enduro Pro package and Dynamic package are almost mandatory purchases, which also pushes the price up. All in all, a remarkable reorientation of BMW's in-line two-cylinder enduro bike.

Linear, fun motor

Suitably dimensioned brakes

Super responsive, optional suspension

Optional enduro bike pro mode offers versatile configuration options

Successful ergonomics for seated and standing riding

Pleasant handling

Good quickshifter

Sophisticated off-road solutions, such as folding foot brake lever riser

Accessible, comfortable and cool - a great combination

Wind protection could be better

Only tubeless rims available

Standard suspension not good enough off-road

Engine runs a bit raw and louder than comparable competitors
