KTM 790 Adventure 2019

KTM 790 Adventure 2019

In my eyes, the KTM is the sportiest of all mid-range touring enduros. If you are looking for a touring machine that is brutally nippy on road and off-road, you will find it here. At the same time, however, the chassis and engine offer sufficient comfort and good manners to keep the rider from going mad even on longer liaison stages.

Engine with manners AND character

Enormously high chassis stability

Brakes without reproach

Tremendous off-road capabilities

Low average consumption.

Unattractive surcharge policy

original seat not optimally shaped

Yamaha Tracer 900 GT 2018

Yamaha Tracer 900 GT 2018

Yamaha's sporty all-purpose weapon has been further improved. It is the perfect bike for all those for whom the naked MT-09 is too spartanly designed for sporty country road riding. Thanks to the longer swingarm and better aerodynamics, the 2018 model also largely eliminates the high-speed problems that its predecessor had to contend with. The premium version in the form of the Tracer 900 GT goes one better and can also convince with great comfort features.

Powerful engine

Top chassis

Driving pleasure guaranteed

Better stability than the predecessor

Successful revision of the aerodynamics

Comfort gain for pillion passenger

Cruise control

Heated grips

Automatic gearshift

Pretty colour display

Passenger rest system restricts freedom of movement

ABS and traction control only at basic level
