Yamaha MT-125 2019

Model change done right! Yamaha has taken the cake with the new MT-125. The magnificent single-cylinder coupled with the sporty chassis brings unbelievable riding fun that knows no age limits. Whether young or old - with such driving qualities, the competition has to dress warmly! Due to its sporty design, everyday comfort may have to suffer, but as soon as the roads get twisty, the MT-125 is forgiven for its harshness. A motorbike you can own with a lot of pride!
KTM 390 Duke 2018

The KTM 390 Duke is a "real" Duke. The trademark: Extremely agile handling that makes for powerful riding fun. The flyweight 390 can be precisely controlled with its narrow waist and wide handlebars and feels most at home in tight corners. Especially with the Supermoto mode, it is a fun machine without equal. Unfortunately, only the brakes and suspension of the 390 cannot maintain the same, very high performance level as on the 125 Duke or 890 Duke. They feel a bit spongy and not optimally tuned, especially when the rider weighs in a bit more. The equipment is otherwise tip-top, especially when you consider the price of the 390 Duke. In terms of riding pleasure/euros, it outperforms most, including its Duke sisters.
