KTM 125 Duke 2015

KTM 125 Duke 2015

For 16-year-olds and B-111 owners, the KTM 125 Duke is a blessing because it is not a small moped brand, but a real motorbike brand with sporty prestige and a high coolness factor. Motorcyclists who have outgrown school age will miss performance and are more likely to use the smallest Duke for very short everyday trips, if at all. I would then rather prefer a scooter, which also has storage space.

extremely light

cool look

a real Duke

power parts for customisation

Modest performance

little comfort

Honda Forza 125 2015

Honda Forza 125 2015

If it were up to Honda, the new Forza 125 should take the throne of the sporty 125cc luxury scooters from zero to everything. To this end, the technicians have put all their efforts into delivering a very credible and harmonious package: The engine is powerful and agile on the throttle and pushes the Forza 125 to speeds that it can keep up with overland and even on the motorway. The stable chassis meets both luxury and sporting requirements, and the equipment is complete, including the six-way adjustable windshield. The huge luggage compartment is particularly practical, making the Forza 125 a universal talent overall. You can always argue about looks, but the dynamic dress and the cool LED lighting will probably appeal to the majority of potential buyers.

Agile and powerful engine
