Pros and Cons in comparison

Honda CB 1000 R 2014

Unfortunately, our editors did not test this model.

Triumph Speed Triple 1050 2011

Even a Super Duke is in a tight spot when the bends are not too sharp and the KTM can make full use of its radical handling and its unrivalled ability to correct the radius on naked bikes. The Speed Triple is more harmonious, patient and predictable. The Duke has to be beaten, the Triple can also be stroked.

Controlled chassis
