Ducati SuperSport 2017

Ducati SuperSport 2017

With the Supersport, Ducati has succeeded in creating a very attractive package that will appeal to every sporty, ambitious rider. It offers the looks of a racing machine, but has pleasant ergonomics, which means that distances of over 200km are no problem. The Testastretta engine has plenty of temperament and even more torque. Coupled with the sporty chassis, winding roads are a joy and it also does very well on the racetrack. For frequent use on circuits, however, the upgrade to the Supersport S with Öhlins suspension is recommended.

Aprilia Shiver 900 2017

Aprilia Shiver 900 2017

As we all know, there's life in the old dog yet not all two-cylinder engines in the Aprilia range have fallen victim to the Euro4 standard, the mid-range lives on - and how! The Shiver 900 not only has more torque thanks to increased displacement, but also an excellently tuned ride-by-wire system. Added to this are further electronic features such as three mappings as well as adjustable and disengageable traction control and ABS. The timeless look hardly changes, but a colour TFT display is now used for the most modern demands.

Sophisticated engine with good ride-by-wire set-up

disengageable traction control

stable handling

timeless look

comfortable seating position

powerful, well-dosed brakes.

Rev range ends at just under 9000 rpm

handling could be better
