BMW F 900 XR 2021

A motorbike in this performance class probably cannot be more accessible. The XR wobbles playfully through the radii and immediately inspires confidence in the saddle. Even long tours are easy and you are always relaxed when getting out of the saddle. However, the sporty look of the BMW also awakens desires for a little thrill. However, the power unit cannot quite fulfil these desires. The engine, transmission and quickshifter are a little too tame overall and could do with a little more sportiness.
KTM 390 Duke 2017

It's actually incredible how much fun you can have with less than 50 hp. The KTM 390 Duke is a little fun cannon that you won't find anywhere else in a hurry. Its sporty set-up with the front-wheel-oriented seating position makes it a true cornering predator - you don't need any more in the angular gear. The sharp looks and the TFT display give it a very high-class appearance.
