Pros and Cons in comparison

Pros and Cons in comparison

BMW R 1200 GS 2006

BMW R 1200 GS 2006

Either it was a stroke of luck or the best developers were at work - handlebars, geometry, seat, knee angle, footrests - it just fits really well for the majority of Central Europeans. All in all, there is still no motorbike that can kill the GS.

Optimal wind protection

comfortable seat

good posture

positive ergonomics

weather robust

quiet chassis.

Seat a little too low.

Kawasaki ZZR 1400 2006

Kawasaki ZZR 1400 2006

All in all, a courageous motorbike that even not-so-brave pilots can dare to ride over. The most important market for this huge bike is America.

Extremely powerful engine

controllability

pull-through

comfortable chassis

seating position

High weight and long wheelbase are naturally annoying on hairpin turns and bends
