Pros and Cons in comparison

KTM 390 Duke 2021

KTM 390 Duke 2021

The KTM 390 Duke is a "real" Duke. The trademark: Extremely agile handling that makes for powerful riding fun. The flyweight 390 can be precisely controlled with its narrow waist and wide handlebars and feels most at home in tight corners. Especially with the Supermoto mode, it is a fun machine without equal. Unfortunately, only the brakes and suspension of the 390 cannot maintain the same, very high performance level as on the 125 Duke or 890 Duke. They feel a bit spongy and not optimally tuned, especially when the rider weighs in a bit more. The equipment is otherwise tip-top, especially when you consider the price of the 390 Duke. In terms of riding pleasure/euros, it outperforms most, including its Duke sisters.

Typical Duke ergonomics that are also suitable for taller riders

Extremely agile handling thanks to flyweight and narrow waist

Sporty engine with great handling

Modern TFT display with smartphone connectivity

Supermoto mode is a pleasure

Quickshifter (optional) works perfectly

Adjustable hand levers

Top price-performance ratio for A2 motorbike.

Chassis tuned a little too soft

pressure point of the brakes a little spongy

Royal Enfield Himalayan 2021

Royal Enfield Himalayan 2021

Since its release, the Royal Enfield Himalayan has enjoyed a large fan community thanks to its classic design and exemplary price-performance ratio. With the 2021 model year, practical details such as ABS that can be deactivated on the rear wheel or the small LCD display with arrow navigation have also been introduced. All in all, however, it remains what it has always stood for: a decelerating companion that is just as ready for the grand tour as it is to cut a good figure in front of the ice cream parlour in the city.
