KTM 990 Super Duke 2006

KTM 990 Super Duke 2006

You can still enter corners precisely or turn the bike on. You can still correct every radius with ease and at will. The Superduke is still more fun than having fun in your lederhosen. And you can still take on anyone with it.

High-performance device

extreme potential - not fully achievable.

Geometry

suboptimal ride comfort

design of the instruments.

BMW S 1000 R 2015

BMW S 1000 R 2015

The BMW S 1000 R impresses across the board and is much more than just a naked version of the S 1000 RR. With its own character, more torque in the mid-range and first-class electronics, it sets new standards in the high-performance Naked segment. The overall package of brutal performance, excellent suspension and practical everyday use makes it one of the best naked bikes ever - and at a surprisingly fair price.

Brutal performance with 160 Horsepower

Outstanding DDC suspension

Amazing stability at high speeds for a naked bike

Perfect electronics with sensitive DTC

Good price/performance ratio

Character despite perfection

Driving mode display font too small

Too extreme appearance for BMW traditionalists

Without equipment packages, important electronic features are missing

The price advantage is lost with full features
