Royal Enfield Meteor 350 Fireball 2021

Whether as a beginner's bike or a second bike, the Royal Enfield Meteor 350 offers a hell of a lot of motorbike at a more than fair price. But one thing is clear: if you are looking for lap times or home track records, you should get another motorbike. Everyone else is guaranteed not to go wrong with the attractively designed Meteor 350. It's a great bike that could well become a blockbuster without any real competition on the market!

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
