Pros and Cons in comparison
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.
KTM 1290 Super Duke R 2019
The KTM is and remains the most brutal naked bike on the market. The upright riding position in combination with the wild V2 power make it look more brutal than it is on paper. It has been improved precisely in its biggest weak points. The engine now runs more smoothly, the quickshifter brings calm in the acceleration phase and the chassis has been upgraded. It still loves the wild chase more than high cornering speeds on long bends.
