Pros and Cons in comparison

Pros and Cons in comparison

KTM 1190 RC8 R 2015

KTM 1190 RC8 R 2015

The RC8 from KTM has matured into a good motorbike. Unfortunately, the maturing process has taken a little too long. The engine characteristics are good, the chassis as well and the bike is great to ride both on the country road and on the race track.

Well-tuned suspension elements

fairly agile

acceptable brakes

positive cornering.

Performance could be higher

primarily designed for country roads.

BMW S 1000 RR 2011

BMW S 1000 RR 2011

The most important changes to the S 1000 RR, however, were the numerous small adjustments to the chassis and geometry. Here we now benefit from thousands of test kilometres from the BMW test crew. This is logical evolution and a great step forward.

Improved driveability - optimised torque curve

plenty of power

strong engine

good traction point

immaculately functioning shift assist.

Accelerating load is very fatiguing.
