Pros and Cons in comparison

KTM 390 Adventure 2024

The small 390 Adventurr can be seen as an absolute all-rounder in its class and a real value-for-money winner. The high-quality electronics package and the powerful single-cylinder make it a pure fun machine that does not overtax inexperienced on- and off-road riders, but supports them. The sporty but comfortable seating position and the decent wind protection make even longer tours possible. No matter what surface you ride it on, the 390 Adventure is a lot of fun - but most of all in tight corners!

Powerful engine

adjustable chassis

good wind protection

top price-performance ratio

high-quality electronics package including lean angle-dependent traction control and cornering ABS

optional Quickshifter+

real fun machine on any surface.

A little too compact for tall pilots

Honda GB350S 2025

The Honda GB350 S is not a bike for the pub-talk - it is a bike for people who prefer riding to talking. Its virtues lie not in numbers, but in feeling. And that is precisely why it fits so well into the 1000PS best time concept. Because here, too, it's not the pure lap time that counts in the end - but what happens between the start and finish. Strengths: Weaknesses:

Wonderfully smooth engine running

precise modulation

honest ride feel

surprisingly good handling

classic look with technical maturity

high-quality workmanship

low fuel consumption

very smooth-running clutch

Too little power when overtaking in 70 km/h or 100 km/h zones annoys even relaxed drivers

very defensive traction control
