Pros and Cons in comparison

KTM 125 Duke 2022

KTM 125 Duke 2022

Even in the Euro 5 version, the KTM Duke 125 is the motorbike to beat in the A1 class. Superior equipment, potent engine, good chassis, great display and fun Supermoto mode make not only the heart of 16-year-olds beat faster. The looks polarise, but let the observer clearly recognise the smallest Duke as such. The Duke 125 is not cheap, but it is worth the price.

super-agile handling

Supermoto mode as standard

Suzuki SFV 650 Gladius 2017

Suzuki SFV 650 Gladius 2017

The Suzuki's top performer is clearly its engine; the V2 is wonderfully agile and powerful. This often makes up for the somewhat feminine appearance, which this racy engine does not really deserve.

good ergonomics
