Pros and Cons in comparison
Husqvarna TR 650 Strada 2013
The TR is not a supermoto for the track, but more of an everyday vehicle. The power delivery is smoother, the handling controlled and predictable. The TR is not radical in any of its capabilities, not even in braking.
KTM 690 Duke 2013
More than a decade after its launch, the KTM 690 Duke remains a fascinating bike with its own character. The attempt to turn the rebellious Duke into a bike with more mass appeal has proven to be a successful strategy. The combination of an outstanding LC4 engine, direct handling and good value for money continues to make it an attractive option for riders looking for something special. Although newer twin-cylinder models are superior in terms of smooth running and comfort, the 690 Duke offers an immediacy and character that only a large single-cylinder can deliver. As a used motorbike, it has proven to be surprisingly stable in value and durable - provided you pay attention to regular maintenance.
