KTM RC 390 2024

KTM RC 390 2024

The KTM RC 390 presents itself as a sporty and dynamic bike that is particularly suitable for riders looking for an agile and manoeuvrable machine. Its fully adjustable suspension and low weight ensure precise and easy handling, while the comprehensive electronics package, including the innovative supermoto ABS, offers additional safety and riding pleasure. The engine, on the other hand, shows weaknesses in power delivery, especially at low revs, which is not what you would expect from a single-cylinder engine. The aggressive riding position is a double-edged sword: it enables a sporty riding experience, but can be uncomfortable for longer rides.

Suzuki Hayabusa 2025

Suzuki Hayabusa 2025

The Hayabusa is an absolute legend, the first production motorbike to run at over 300 km/h cannot be dismissed as a minor matter. With the new Busa, however, Suzuki has recognised the signs of the times. The current model, with its extensive electronic equipment including cruise control as standard, is an excellent hyper-tourer. The ergonomics are still sport-oriented, but the rider sits well integrated in the machine and thus also enjoys good wind protection. The brakes are stable, the handling is fine and the chassis is wonderfully stable and mature. The icing on the cake is, of course, the huge 1340 cubic in-line four-cylinder engine, which impresses with its 190 hp alone. Even better, however, is the maximum torque of 150 Newton metres, which is felt to be available from idle speed. In terms of sovereignty, this engine is hard to beat!
