Honda CB1000 Hornet SP 2025

The Honda CB1000 Hornet SP is more than just a new bike - it's a statement. Honda proves that they can still do it. They have created a bike that impresses in every respect: engine, suspension, brakes, price-performance ratio. You sit on it and immediately know how to ride this thing. There are no puzzles, no nasty surprises. Just pure, honest performance at a price that makes the competition look old. This isn't just a good bike - it's a game changer. Honda is back, and how they are back.
KTM 1290 Super Duke R 2016

KTM knows no turning back and KTM knows no quarter. That's why the new 1290 Super Duke R is a little easier to handle than its predecessor, but also a little stronger and faster. Already at 2500 rpm, over 100 Nm are available, the maximum is 141, the top performance is stated at 177 hp. That may be too much, but it doesn't have to be. The electronics remain the lifeline in this category, where development continues to move forward strongly. KTM has started where it had difficulties and that was stability. Changes to the geometry and chassis have improved this significantly, making the ride on the beast not only faster, but also safer. The handling is no less radical for that, and the supermoto genes are more evident than on any other naked bike. There can only be one Super Duke.
