Ducati Hypermotard 950 SP 2019
At Ducati, there is no series in which there is not a top model that takes precedence over at least one base model. That's good, because the Italians can afford to charge outrageously more. Outrageously more, of course, only for those who cannot afford the Ducati Hypermotard 950 SP - the normal version can do almost everything just as well. But the fine difference is made by such fine ingredients as shining gold oil equipment front and rear, forged Marchesini rims, fine carbon parts and the successful paintwork in the Ducati Corse look.
BMW S 1000 R 2022
The seating position is sporty, but by no means uncomfortable, the brakes are powerful and the engine of the S 1000 R is at its best - perhaps even a little too homogeneous. There is also nothing to complain about on the riding side. Based on the pure performance data and the installed electronic features, the BMW probably has what it takes for the fastest lap time. And that on any kind of surface, because with the semi-active suspension you can eat up kilometre after kilometre on bad roads littered with potholes. Unfortunately, this feeling of superiority never really spilled over to the driver. Probably the downside of too much balance in all areas - at least in my Italophile eyes. The BMW lacked that certain something, the charisma, which is difficult to explain but arouses genuine emotions.
