If straight-line speed is your priority, the Speed Twin 900 takes the lead. With 13 HP more than the W800 ABS, it offers a more spirited ride that will be noticeable on highway overtakes or track days. When it comes to agility, the Speed Twin 900 has a clear advantage. Weighing in 10kg less than the W800 ABS, it will feel significantly easier to handle in low-speed traffic, parking maneuvers, and twisty corners. Bottom Line: While both are capable, the speed-twin900 offers a superior power-to-weight ratio, making it the more exciting machine for experienced riders.
