Pros and Cons in comparison

KTM 125 Duke 2022

Even in the Euro 5 version, the KTM Duke 125 is the motorbike to beat in the A1 class. Superior equipment, potent engine, good chassis, great display and fun Supermoto mode make not only the heart of 16-year-olds beat faster. The looks polarise, but let the observer clearly recognise the smallest Duke as such. The Duke 125 is not cheap, but it is worth the price.

lively engine

super-agile handling

Supermoto mode as standard

mature chassis

top brakes

sharp TFT display

connectivity (optional)

Optics not to everyone's taste

price high for a 125cc bike

Ducati Multistrada V2 S 2022

The Ducati Multistrada V2 S is an extremely agile and at the same time comfortable touring motorbike that is unbelievably fun to ride at an angle, but also shines with comfort on the long haul. Thanks to lowered seat height, significantly shorter crotch curve and improved engine smoothness (at least for a Ducati), even smaller and less experienced people can enjoy this wonderful riding pleasure completely carefree. It is above all something for riders who like to take a sportier approach, but do not want to miss a certain comfort when touring.

Very agile engine from 6000 revs

versatile, semi-active chassis

brakes with good control

sporty yet comfortable seating position

well suited to smaller riders

extensive standard equipment

good wind protection with easy adjustment

comfortable for pillion rider.

Engine jerks at low revs

gearbox does not shift quite cleanly in the lower gears

quickshifter is not perfect
