KTM 690 SMC R 2019

If you want to experience unfiltered supermoto joy on the road, the KTM 690 SMC R is the only choice. The LC4 has been greatly cultivated in the meantime, but still brings the virtues you expect from a single-cylinder. Various riding aids can also be activated on choice, but these are not a must! Thanks to its low weight, it can also be thrown through the bends like a bicycle and - if you can - playfully carried to the rear wheel. The only thing that KTM could perhaps do with a makeover is the displays, because they quickly give the impression that we are still in the 90s. However, real supermoto fans will certainly not tear their hair out over this.
Yamaha MT-07 2018

The MT-07 is an incredible fun machine that is extremely sporty to ride. The brakes pack a punch, the handling is superb and the engine is currently by far the most agile power unit in this class - and even above. The light handling fits in perfectly and the aggressive design with its many corners and edges is also appealing. Only the chassis makes the typically good compromise between comfort and sport and should probably remind you that the affordable MT-07 also has a lot to offer beginners.
