Pros and Cons in comparison

KTM 1290 Super Duke GT 2019

KTM has not brought a completely new Superduke GT for 2019, but has improved the improved the machine in detail. Conclusion: Extremely successful! Simply an amazing rocket!

Improved engine smoothness

Brutal steam hammer characteristic has been retained

Engine incredibly powerful - even at 180 km/h upwards

Top functioning automatic gearshift with blipper is on board

Very easy to control - even if you switch off the very well functioning electronics

Adjustable footrest system

Clear and easy-to-read 6.5 inch TFT display

Design is still a matter of taste despite optical "slimming"

Suzuki V-Strom 650 2017

The small V-Strom 650 is not only visually close to the big V-Strom 1000 with its pronounced duckbill, stacked headlights and extensive instruments. The equipment does not correspond at all to what is understood by "cheap entry": traction control, lively Euro4 engine, harmonious handling and additional techno-gadgets such as Low RPM Assist or Suzuki Easy Start System. To the delight of the customers, the price is kept within reasonable limits.

Lively, economical engine

balanced handling

good wind protection

traction control and ABS as standard

looks in the style of its big sister

extensive instrumentation with gear indicator

12-volt socket in the cockpit area

good price.

Traction control in mode 2 very restrictive
