KTM 1190 Adventure 2016

KTM 1190 Adventure 2016

The KTM 1190 Adventure is an absolute all-rounder, there is no demand that it does not fulfil: It combines sport, touring, mountain passes and off-road riding. With hardly any other "all-rounder" motorbike is it so fast - even on the racetrack the 1190 Adventure cuts a fine figure with its 150 hp. An unbeatable climber, especially on narrow mountain roads, but also a pleasant companion on the daily ride to work. Also included is a comprehensive electronics package with adjustable power modes, traction control and even a lean angle ABS is on board.

Combines sport with comfort

buttery smooth gearbox

powerful and well controllable engine

excellent seating position

handy chassis

sophisticated electronics

lean angle ABS

Engine jerks a little below 3000 revs

unlike its predecessor, it no longer looks quite so independent

smooth gliding is not its strong point

Yamaha Tracer 900 2017

Yamaha Tracer 900 2017

Take two, pay one. With the MT-09 Tracer, you get almost a whole MT-09 with all its sportiness plus a touring bike that is suitable for everyday use and to some extent suitable for travelling, with decent comfort for all situations. Just remember that there are many more comfortable bikes in this category - but hardly any sportier ones. Easier to ride, easier to control with 3 riding modes, ABS and traction control as standard. Only the wind protection could be better and the seat for long distances can only be found in the accessories.

Sporty performance like all MT-09

3 riding modes

ABS and traction control as standard

taut chassis, plenty of lean angle clearance

Wind protection not optimal

seat could be more comfortable

handlebars too wide for the city
