Pros and Cons in comparison
BMW R 1100 S 2006
Even though the R 1100 S is already an old lady, it should not be underestimated. If you have no problem with older technology and simple options, this is an affordable touring motorbike that is always a faithful companion thanks to its solid technology.
KTM 390 Duke 2019
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.
