If straight-line speed is your priority, the 500SR VOOM takes the lead. With 32 HP more than the 450SRS, it offers a more spirited ride that will be noticeable on highway overtakes or track days. When it comes to agility, the 450SRS has a clear advantage. Weighing in 15kg less than the 500SR VOOM, it will feel significantly easier to handle in low-speed traffic, parking maneuvers, and twisty corners. Bottom Line: While both are capable, the 500sr-voom offers a superior power-to-weight ratio, making it the more exciting machine for experienced riders.
