Aprilia Dorsoduro 900 2019

Supermoto with strong naked bike genes. The Aprilia Dorsoduro 900 is the perfect choice for those who are looking for the feeling of a genuine supermoto, but do not want to do without the comfort and convenience of a naked bike. Its pleasantly smooth V2 and well-tuned chassis find a very fair compromise between emotional sports machine and everyday cruiser, which is why the Dorsoduro 900 can be recommended to a broad target group. Visual details such as the undersat exhaust or the red valve covers give it a lot of character even when stationary, even if the overall design seems a little outdated. The only downer is the operation of the display, which should have been much more intuitive.

The BMW F 850 GS also scores points in 2022 with its pleasant ergonomics and accessible character. Operation is easy and you quickly feel comfortable on the motorbike. The longer the tour, the more you miss the finesse in the details. The damping of the fork is too lax and not adjustable. The engine gets a bit boring in the long run, and the gearstick and quickshifter are always stiff. In direct comparison with other touring enduros, it is always somewhat overshadowed by more exciting models.
