Pros and Cons in comparison

Yamaha YZ 125 LC 2020

Unfortunately, our editors did not test this model.

Honda CBR650R 2021

The 2021 update of the Honda CBR650R solves the biggest problem of the previous year's model: the overly comfortable chassis. The new Showa fork gives the sports bike a much sportier response, which is immediately noticeable on winding country roads. However, one should not expect a thoroughbred super sports bike, but a road sports bike suitable for everyday use, on which one can experience a lot of pleasure in the saddle both on the way to work and on a weekend ride.
