BMW R 1250 GS Adventure 2023

The big GS Adventure is and remains a great motorbike for any terrain - even for tight corners. The low centre of gravity of the boxer engine, the longitudinally mounted crankshaft, the upright seating position and the powerful but easily controllable torque from far below are simply a force. Although the Adventure version has a higher seat with more weight, which is a decisive hindrance when turning or manoeuvring, in terms of performance the engine also has so much punch in the big GS Adventure that you can let it rip. The BMW's braking system is stable and excellently controllable, and the equipment and electronics can be upgraded considerably - as long as you tick the boxes on the order list. Of course, this pushes up the price, but the many fans of the fat GS Adventure obviously don't mind.
KTM 1390 Super Duke R EVO 2024

The KTM 1390 Super Duke R EVO proves that it cuts an exceptional figure both on the race track and in everyday urban riding. Its impressive combination of power, comfort and technology makes it a first-class choice for riders who don't want to compromise between adrenaline and everyday practicality. The semi-active suspension, flexible ergonomics and advanced engine control ensure that this bike, with its brute power, is always confident, fun and actually quite easy to ride. This overall package doesn't cost little either, even compared to other Hyper Nakeds. However, with the large V2 engine and the associated engine characteristics, the 1390 Super Duke R also offers a unique riding experience.
