Ducati Scrambler Icon 2020

While the many different motorbike genres are becoming increasingly blurred and overlapping, the Ducati Scrambler Icon is indeed the uncomplicated and robust scrambler promised in its name. The wide handlebars make for unbelievably easy handling, so it's easy to forgive the fact that the comfort-oriented chassis has no adjustable fork, while the shock absorber can at least be adjusted in rebound and spring preload. You also forgive the fact that the front single disc needs quite a bit of manual force; after all, it is very commendable that a cornering ABS is fitted as standard. The rest of the equipment, however, is again in keeping with the minimalist style, which is perhaps even a little exaggerated in the case of the (outdated) LCD instruments. All in all, however, the Scrambler Icon convinces above all with its successful appearance, which conveys what it's all about even when stationary: lifestyle instead of riding style!
Benelli 752 S 2021

If you like Italian design and the design language of MV Agusta's Brutale series in particular, you will find the Benelli 752 S a particularly stylish partner. The setup of the suspension and braking system is very well done, and the riding position is comfortably upright - in other words, it meets the standard you would expect on a modern mid-range naked bike. The engine's acceleration is also mediocre; more could certainly be achieved by revising the injection electronics. On the other hand, the features of the Benelli 752 S would fit into a higher class, with LED lighting all round, a fat USD fork and even a TFT colour display, it makes quite an impression.
