KTM 1290 Super Duke GT 2021
The Super Duke GT definitely focuses on the "sport" in the sport tourer, but it can nevertheless also be used passably in touring mode. From the chassis to the seat, it is clearly on the harder side, but it makes up for this with great ergonomics, plenty of space in the saddle and lush factory equipment. Sporty riders in particular will enjoy the powerful engine and the precise, smooth handling. It may not be suitable for comfort-conscious cruisers, but those who can do without a bit of cosiness and in return enjoy the radical character will have no problem going on long journeys with it. The important points, such as sufficient range, wind protection and payload, are also fulfilled.
BMW C 400 GT 2019
With its 350 cubic capacity, 34 hp and 35 Newton metres of torque, the C 400 GT plays perfectly in the luxury scooter middle class. The weight of 212 kilos ready to ride is put into perspective when it comes to handling thanks to the low centre of gravity; instead, the powerful brakes at the front provide a surprising amount of sportiness. Nevertheless, comfort is not neglected, the seating position is comfortable, the chassis offers sufficient reserves and the workmanship is excellent. The fact that many features such as heated grips, TFT display and heated seats cost extra should not be held against the BMW scooter, because at least you have the choice of whether or not to add them.
