Yamaha MT-07 2018

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.

The Honda Gold Wing is a big hit, both in terms of equipment and riding dynamics. The engine remains a wonderfully smooth six-cylinder boxer that still finds its purpose in sovereignty from the bottom up. It may be sportier than its predecessors, but it remains a comfortable tourer at heart. There is no lack of comfort, the seat comfort is superb, the wind protection sufficient, especially on the Gold Wing Tour models with higher windscreen and top case. The electronics package is also very generous, but here the years since the last major update are noticeable. Gold Wing fans will still enjoy it, but there are more contemporary tourers on the market.

Smooth six-cylinder boxer engine

good sound - both engine and speakers

electrically adjustable windshield

4 driving modes

sat nav as standard

reverse gear

heated grips

cruise control

Apple CarPlay.

Electronics no longer state of the art

engine gets loud in the upper rev range

quite limited lean angle clearance
