Aprilia RSV4 1100 Factory 2019

Aprilia RSV4 1100 Factory 2019

The fact that the Aprilia RSV4 1100 Factory is new can be seen in the displacement - the increase to 1077 cubic metres means that a massive 217 hp and 122 Newton metres of torque are now available. This makes the RSV4 one of the strongest on the racetrack, but also a superior country road fighter. In all other respects, such as chassis, suspension and geometry, the Factory version with Öhlins suspension elements embodies the racing idea in a really serious way. Even the cool winglets on the side are no joke, but derived directly from the RS-GP MotoGP bike. The rest of the design is old, but certainly not boring.

Superb engine

brilliant sound

brutal brakes

Öhlins suspension

full electronics package

automatic gearshift with blipper

sporty ergonomics

cool winglets.

Little torque in the rev range

too much information for the too small colour TFT display

KTM 1290 Super Duke R 2018

KTM 1290 Super Duke R 2018

The epithet "Beast" is not completely out of the blue, the KTM is and remains a brutal naked bike - 177 hp from two pots with a combined displacement of 1301 cubic metres is nothing harmless. Nevertheless, it is surprisingly easy to control; the upright seating position combined with the good handling make it seem almost docile. Compared to its predecessor, it has been improved precisely at its weakest points. The engine now runs more smoothly, the shift assistant brings calmness in the acceleration phase and the chassis has been improved in quality. But it still loves the wild chase more than high speed in long curves.

Provides a wonderful adrenaline rush

extensive configuration options

terrific brakes with cornering ABS

practical electronic features

great seating position

electronic features can be set very sporty and also deactivated

very good shift assistant

Precise stroke not always easy to hit

one of the most dangerous motorbikes for the driving licence on the market
