KTM 390 Duke 2022

KTM 390 Duke 2022

The KTM 390 Duke is a "real" Duke. The trademark: Extremely agile handling that makes for powerful riding fun. The flyweight 390 can be precisely controlled with its narrow waist and wide handlebars and feels most at home in tight corners. Especially with the Supermoto mode, it is a fun machine without equal. Unfortunately, only the brakes and suspension of the 390 cannot maintain the same, very high performance level as on the 125 Duke or 890 Duke. They feel a bit spongy and not optimally tuned, especially when the rider weighs in a bit more. The equipment is otherwise tip-top, especially when you consider the price of the 390 Duke. In terms of riding pleasure/euros, it outperforms most, including its Duke sisters.

Typical Duke ergonomics that are also suitable for taller riders

Extremely agile handling thanks to flyweight and narrow waist

Sporty engine with great handling

Modern TFT display with smartphone connectivity

Supermoto mode is a pleasure

Quickshifter (optional) works perfectly

Adjustable hand levers

Top price-performance ratio for A2 motorbike.

Chassis tuned a little too soft

pressure point of the brakes a little spongy

Yamaha MT-125 2020

Yamaha MT-125 2020

The Yamaha MT 125 is an elegant yet sporty naked bike that delivers a lot of power, especially in the lower rev range. The upright seating position and good handling round off the MT. The disadvantages, however, are that no LED turn signals have been installed and that you protrude above the speedometer when your upper body is bent forward.

Sporty and comfortable

Good chassis

Versatile

No LED turn signals

sitting position that takes some getting used to with the upper body tilted forwards
