Pros and Cons in comparison
Honda XL750 Transalp 2024
In the long-term test, the Honda XL750 Transalp proves to be a versatile and reliable adventure bike that combines touring comfort with solid off-road capability. It is not a sports bike, but an honest, uncomplicated adventure bike for anyone looking for a reliable bike for road and gravel. Minor weaknesses in the suspension and electronic settings hardly spoil the overall very positive impression.
KTM 690 Duke 2014
More than a decade after its launch, the KTM 690 Duke remains a fascinating bike with its own character. The attempt to turn the rebellious Duke into a bike with more mass appeal has proven to be a successful strategy. The combination of an outstanding LC4 engine, direct handling and good value for money continues to make it an attractive option for riders looking for something special. Although newer twin-cylinder models are superior in terms of smooth running and comfort, the 690 Duke offers an immediacy and character that only a large single-cylinder can deliver. As a used motorbike, it has proven to be surprisingly stable in value and durable - provided you pay attention to regular maintenance.
