Pros and Cons in comparison
Yamaha MT-10 2016
The short and stocky MT-10 is the furthest away from the R1 superbike of the renowned power naked bikes, both in terms of looks and chassis, but the heart of the MT-10 is directly descended from the racetrack weapon and fascinates with a uniquely raw sound and power from below thanks to the typical crank pin offset, which, with a modified firing order, ensures this unique character. The resulting 160 hp therefore only seem a little weak on paper compared to the more than 200 hp of the R1, in reality the MT-10 also ignites incredible fireworks. The suspension would probably be too soft for the race track, but it is just right for a country road fight, and the brakes do the same - probably only acceptable for the track, but perfect for the country road.
KTM 1290 Super Adventure S 2017
The KTM 1290 Super Adventure S is more than a sporty touring enduro - it is a sports machine that can also go on tours. The powerful 160 hp engine is not only extremely powerful, it is also very easy to operate and makes you want to ride sportily. The many electronic assistance systems such as traction control, semi-active chassis, various modes and cornering ABS also contribute to making you feel right at home on the 1290 Super Adventure S. Finally, the huge TFT display and other gadgets such as the Race-on system or My Ride are also quite convincing.
