KTM 790 Duke 2023

KTM 790 Duke 2023

The KTM scores with a terrific engine and a high-quality electronics package. The look divides the motorbike community. Not all motorcyclists like the front. In direct comparison with other bikes in the class, however, the price no longer seems as attractive as it used to!

Strong engine

Sporty engine that is superior to other bikes in this price range

Pleasant running culture from the engine

High-quality electronics

Good ergonomics for tall riders

Cheeky sound

Taut chassis for sporty riding.

Suspension not adjustable

Mediocre brakes

Relatively high price compared to other bikes in this class.

Suzuki V-Strom 800DE 2023

It's amazing how much an unagitated, practical all-round motorbike like the Suzuki V-Strom 800DE can drive into your heart. Probably it is precisely because of this clever design with manageable electronic features that can be optimally adjusted to personal needs. Thanks to the excellent ride-by-wire system, the engine seems more powerful in the lower range than the displacement would suggest and does everything right both on and off-road. With 220 millimetres of suspension travel at the front and rear, the chassis is really well tuned for off-road, but clearly also offers an advantage for road riders on bad roads. The ergonomics are good, but tall riders should consider the higher, optional seat because of the somewhat acute knee angle.

Powerful engine from below

fully adjustable chassis

manageable, clever electronic features

quickshifter up/down standard

acute knee angle for riders with long legs
