KTM 1290 Super Duke GT 2019

KTM 1290 Super Duke GT 2019

KTM has not brought a completely new Superduke GT for 2019, but has improved the improved the machine in detail. Conclusion: Extremely successful! Simply an amazing rocket!

Improved engine smoothness

Brutal steam hammer characteristic has been retained

Engine incredibly powerful - even at 180 km/h upwards

Top functioning automatic gearshift with blipper is on board

Very easy to control - even if you switch off the very well functioning electronics

Adjustable footrest system

Clear and easy-to-read 6.5 inch TFT display

Design is still a matter of taste despite optical "slimming"

Ducati Multistrada 1200 S 2015

Ducati Multistrada 1200 S 2015

The new Ducati Multistrada 1200 S is a thoroughly successful new edition of the extra-sporty touring enduro. The weaknesses of the predecessor were obviously analysed in detail and corrected: thanks to the DVT system, the engine now also works harmoniously in the lower rev range and the seating position is now also more suitable for comfort-oriented riders. The electronics have been massively upgraded; no other touring enduro is so comprehensively equipped. Starting with the many adjustable modes for power delivery and suspension, the brakes and cornering ABS are also of the highest standard. Although the "normal" Multisrtrada 1200 does without some electronic gimmicks, it is also cheaper and does not ride any worse overall.

Good handling, powerful engine

sensitive, semi-active Skyhook suspension

superb Brembo braking system

cornering ABS

tunable power modes

LED cornering lights

Cruise Control as standard

optional equipment packages can be combined.

Windshield too narrow

not a cheap pleasure
