Pros and Cons in comparison
KTM 1290 Super Duke GT 2016
With generous standard equipment, a retuned engine and unmistakably edgy KTM design, the 1290 Super Duke GT aims to enter the sport touring segment. With rideable performance and the full power of the naked bike in the spirit of the "Ready-to-Race" credo, it stands out from the competition not only visually. The mattighofen sports fanatics even fit heated grips and cruise control to offer frequent riders a nice spot. Somehow they still manage to remain credible and to trigger storms of enthusiasm in the rider.
Ducati Hypermotard 939 2018
The Ducati Hypermotard 939 is a real Hollywood star that has already starred in 21 films and TV series. Even on the set of the 2018 naked bike comparison, its looks stole the show from most bikes. As befits a Hollywood starlet, however, the Ducati can be a little bitchy from time to time. For example, it's hard to start off when cold, and its soft forks also make it a little nervous in fast corners. But when you conquer the bull, the feelings of happiness are indescribable and you are rewarded with a wonderful V2 Testastretta sound. Perhaps the biggest drawback: its outdated LCD display, which doesn't fit in at all with the Italian design composition.
