KTM 790 Duke 2018

The KTM 790 Duke L is an absolutely sporty naked bike with a high fun factor. Whether a beginner rider can handle it depends very much on his or her personality and riding behaviour. There are certainly motorbikes better suited for learning, but sporty radius hunters will hardly be satisfied with anything else. The 790 Duke L is also rather unenthusiastic about everyday rides in the city. On the country road, however, it's a blast, even with only 48 hp. Simply a fun bike as it is written in the book.

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.
