KTM 690 Duke 2009

Are there so many people who don't need 100 hp to stabilise their ego? I think with previous single-cylinder models, it was always the design that was the problem, not the lack of power. The Duke manages to look really high-quality even as a small single-cylinder.

Stable frame

relatively low overall weight

good chassis

high-quality components

strong braking system

handling.

Significantly weaker single-cylinder engine

somewhat less comfort

somewhat less power.

The somewhat hackneyed saying "Performance isn't everything!" hits the mark with the new Honda CB300R. The bike could be sold as the epitome of lightness, both in terms of weight and handling. The high build quality in combination with the successful styling will certainly help to overlook the less than complete equipment. Thus, the CB300R represents a real enrichment for the A2 segment!

Truly smooth handling

chassis offers stability AND comfort

top build quality

IMU-ABS & full LED lighting.

Front brake needs more hand force than expected

Poorly equipped than the competition
