KTM 390 Duke 2015

"I'm not a girl, not yet a woman" sang Britney Spears in an innocently erotic voice, trying to make the whole world believe she wasn't already dating Justin Timberlake fi...Well, in any case, this is a transitional phase, as the 390 Duke also describes with its essence. No longer a small Duke, but not yet a big one either, the 390 is right in the middle. You shouldn't underestimate it, but you shouldn't expect too much either. If you keep this in mind, you will have a lot of fun with it, even on a not too fast race track. (However, not too many thousands should be on the road then.) Feather-light handling like a moped, but already as strong as many a 600cc funk bike from the last 10 years.

With the XSR700, Yamaha has once again hit the jackpot. The retro look with modern elements is currently very popular with customers. The fact that it is based on the affordable MT-07 is not at all a problem, as the entry-level bike is known for being extremely sporty and agile. The XSR700's comfortable chassis and upright riding position are a perfect match. The price of almost 9,000 euros seems steep at first glance, especially in comparison to the MT-07, but the improved appearance and exclusivity make up for the money.
