Pros and Cons in comparison

Yamaha Tracer 700 2017

Yamaha Tracer 700 2017

The fact that the Yamaha MT-07 is the main parts donor for the Tracer 700 becomes apparent at the latest when you first open the throttle: the powerful parallel twin-cylinder engine exudes agility and a tremendous amount of riding fun. This makes it easy to live with on a touring enduro, which is a good match for longer distances. The chassis could be a little more precise and the windshield could be a little higher, but overall the Tracer 700 is the ultimate fun bike in its class - a lot of fun for comparatively little money.

Very powerful engine

comfortable riding position

easy handling

ABS series

modern design in the style of the Tracer 900

affordable

Relatively small windshield

chassis tuning a little too soft

Suzuki V-Strom 1000 2016

Suzuki V-Strom 1000 2016

In the large enduro segment, the Suzuki V-Strom 1000 is the best value for money, yet you don't have to do without anything - traction control and ABS come as standard. Excellent brakes, great comfort and a wonderfully powerful V-twin engine are ingredients that should appeal to almost everyone. The fact that it doesn't play in the top league with 100 hp is made up for by the wonderful power delivery, which ensures a relaxed climate on long journeys. Only the wind protection is not optimal with the original windshield; one should invest in the affordable, somewhat larger windshield.

Powerful engine

traction control as standard

very good brakes

taut yet comfortable chassis

great touring capability

complete instrumentation

Windshield creates turbulence on the head

the engine runs out of breath in the upper rev range, arbitrary optics
