CFMOTO 800NK Sport 2023

Here comes a real firecracker from China on the market! The 800 NK shines with over-complete equipment; this bike has features that are not available elsewhere in this class. The engine is a joy dispenser with charisma, the chassis is well-balanced and the brakes are correctly dimensioned. Smaller tuning points still need to be tinkered with and the traction control will probably be included in the next model year. However, the package is more than tempting even in the current configuration, considering the low entry price.
KTM 890 Duke R 2022

The KTM 890 Duke R is the sportiest evolutionary stage of the 890 Duke. More power, firmer chassis, sharper brakes - these ingredients, together with the already low vehicle weight, make it a real precision machine. A fast and cool bike for riding fun fetishists, ambitious home track heaters and, last but not least, a real recommendation for trackday visitors. However, the sporty positioning of the upper body and the somewhat more acute knee angle come at the expense of comfort. Last but not least, the adjustable suspension in the basic setup is really crisply tuned. If you want to enjoy the powerful 890 engine and the high-quality electronics a little more comfortably, you can still go for the basic model with a clear conscience.
