Pros and Cons in comparison

KTM 790 Adventure R 2020

The Adventure R goes one step further than the standard model. Here, the WP guys were finally allowed to draw on their full resources and show what they can do. The higher-quality chassis compensates for the disadvantages of the long suspension travel on the road, but scores points off-road with massive reserves. The surcharge is more than justified. The seat height will probably restrict the clientele somewhat.

High chassis quality ensures a wide range of use

Engine offers great running culture, rich torque and perfectly dimensioned power

Easy-to-read display

Practical rally electronics package

Despite radical chassis also stable, manoeuvrable and suitable for everyday use on the road

Quickshifter not standard

indicator switch a little fiddly

seat a little more uncomfortable on long tours than on standard model

Ducati Diavel 1200 2015

All in all, the Ducati Diavel delivers exactly what it promises visually and surprises with easy rideability and nimble speed on hearty motorbike tracks. Optics and workmanship testify to a real passion for motorbikes. And as befits a devilish motorbike, the Diavel leaves no one cold at the regulars' table.

Improved engine compared to previous model

precise clutch

easy flank change.

Slightly uncomfortable on lousy asphalt.
