Ducati Multistrada V4 S 2025

Ducati Multistrada V4 S 2025

The Multistrada has already had to hold its own against many opponents in numerous tests on extremely versatile terrain and was usually the fastest and best bike overall. The recipe for success: suitability for travelling with countless comfort features combined with a level of sportiness and riding performance that is second to none. The Ducati engineers have poured all the high-quality ingredients into the bike that money can buy. These have been combined to create a harmonious overall package that rids incredibly well. A worthy winner of various comparative tests at a proud price.

Incredibly great riding performance - neutral, harmonious, nimble but still stable

Real adventure bike feeling in the saddle

great brakes

Fascinating, impressively powerful engine

Engine power wonderfully controllable thanks to superb reponsiveness

Comfortable riding position

Good ergonomics even when standing up

Fascinating radar system which is a pleasure to use on the motorway

Great wind protection

High stability even at high speeds

Power-saving and easy to ride

above-average fuel consumption

Operation in the saddle could be more comfortable in some areas

Mobile phone connectivity not really thought through to the end

Workmanship in detail not at the level of riding performance and price

BMW K 1600 GT 2025

BMW K 1600 GT 2025

The BMW 6-cylinder glides over the road in 2022 with a lot of elegance and a lot of equipment. This time, the new headlight technology was outstanding. The engine tuning and the new ESA chassis are also well done this time. Surprisingly, the wind protection is not perfect and perfectionists will miss an adaptive cruise control. The sovereign 6-cylinder is in the form of its life in the current model year. One enjoys the engine in every situation. The K 1600 GT is a magnificently dimensioned sports tourer that offers a practical balance between comfort and agility.

GT still passes for a sports tourer - surprisingly good performance

Smooth engine

Great engine response

Motorcycle generally accessible and easy to use despite its imposing appearance

Good headlight technology

Great display - always easy to read

Comprehensive integration of smartphone into vehicle

Map navigation via BMW Connected App

Good balance between stability and handling

Neutral ride

Good brakes and stable chassis.

Connection from mobile phone to vehicle works well in most cases - but when it hangs up it gets annoying

buttons and switches in the cockpit not backlit

wind protection not perfectly solved - always a draughty feeling in the saddle

no adaptive cruise control - you would expect this from a touring motorbike in this league

mobile phone compartment snagged from time to time during the test - be careful when stuffing in mobile phones that are too large.
