Pros and Cons in comparison

KTM 790 Adventure 2019

In my eyes, the KTM is the sportiest of all mid-range touring enduros. If you are looking for a touring machine that is brutally nippy on road and off-road, you will find it here. At the same time, however, the chassis and engine offer sufficient comfort and good manners to keep the rider from going mad even on longer liaison stages.

Engine with manners AND character

Enormously high chassis stability

Brakes without reproach

Tremendous off-road capabilities

Low average consumption.

Unattractive surcharge policy

original seat not optimally shaped

Honda CB500X 2021

Honda's A2 all-rounder has evolved positively! Components such as brakes and chassis have been noticeably upgraded, while the new paintwork and headlight signature also make a clear statement about the 2022 vintage. Get on and go is the motto here, because thanks to the easy handling and accessible ergonomics, you feel comfortable on this 48 hp touring enduro after just a few metres. Young or old - the CB500X has a place for everyone!
