KTM 390 Duke 2016

The KTM 390 Duke is a really good compromise between sportiness, reason, riding comfort, fun and price. Best of all: it doesn't feel like a compromise at all, but like it's ready to race.

Low weight

sufficient power

high fun factor

low consumption

Sluggish clutch

small geometry

Suzuki SV650X 2019

Suzuki SV650X 2019

Retro is trendy, retro is cool. The people at Suzuki have also recognised this, and although they are not launching many new products for 2018, they are launching a really cool one - the SV650X. Not much had to be changed to place it in the ranks of modern cafe racers: Headlight fairing, paintwork, side panels, saddle and low handlebar ends are enough for the great result. Above all, the front-wheel-oriented seating position suits it well, but does not make it significantly more uncomfortable. The suspension can only be adjusted at the rear, but the lively engine is a blast and the price is right.

Agile, lively and charismatic V2 engine

easy handling, easy to ride despite low handlebars

pleasant seating position with low saddle height

successful gear graduation

low weight

inconspicuous appearance

exhaust look

telescopic fork too soft

no anti-hopping clutch
