KTM 1290 Super Duke GT 2021

KTM 1290 Super Duke GT 2021

The Super Duke GT definitely focuses on the "sport" in the sport tourer, but it can nevertheless also be used passably in touring mode. From the chassis to the seat, it is clearly on the harder side, but it makes up for this with great ergonomics, plenty of space in the saddle and lush factory equipment. Sporty riders in particular will enjoy the powerful engine and the precise, smooth handling. It may not be suitable for comfort-conscious cruisers, but those who can do without a bit of cosiness and in return enjoy the radical character will have no problem going on long journeys with it. The important points, such as sufficient range, wind protection and payload, are also fulfilled.

Ducati Monster 1200 S 2020

Ducati Monster 1200 S 2020

The Ducati Monster generates a whopping 147 hp and a powerful 124 Nm of torque from the 1200 cc water-cooled Testastretta twin cylinder. This means you are more than just well motorised in every situation on the country road! The overall concept of a light ready-to-ride total weight of 213 kg in combination with high-quality Öhlins suspension and top assistance systems makes the machine an almost perfect naked bike. Classic, timeless design paired with modern components make this Italo beauty an "insider tip" in times of 200 hp + hyper naked bike rockets! Small compromises have to be made with the wind protection and the quickshifter. The latter takes a little getting used to.

147 hp High-performance power unit with plenty of torque even at low revs

Fantastic electronic equipment, DTC, DWC, RbW and and and...

Driving modes and assistance systems are freely configurable

High-quality chassis and great seating position

Very coherent and harmonious overall concept - agile and manoeuvrable! Emotional Italo beauty!

The quickshifter requires a bit of sensitivity until you get the hang of it

wind load on the upper body increases noticeably from 130 km/h

a steering damper in the S variant would have been the icing on the cake
