KTM 790 Duke 2024

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!

Kawasaki Z900 2021

In terms of price-performance, the Kawasaki Z900 is hard to beat at the moment. With the perfectly tuned engine, the high-quality chassis components and the electronics added for 2020, this naked bike offers everything that sporty riders will be looking for. There is really nothing to complain about, except for the lack of a quickshifter option.
