KTM 690 Duke 2019

KTM 690 Duke 2019

Considering where the KTM Duke family once started, the 690 Duke is an incredible step forward. The engine is extremely refined and at the same time husky for a street-legal single-cylinder. Despite all the technology on board, it is still a very light motorbike and can almost be called a toy (in a good sense). Only its seating position divides opinions, because with the Duke 4 in 2012, the former supermotos became an almost tame naked bike with a front-wheel-oriented seating position. The advantage: everyday life and long tours should not be a problem on the current Duke.

For some, not a "real" single-cylinder Duke

Honda CB750 Hornet 2025

Honda CB750 Hornet 2025

The Honda CB750 Hornet 2025 shows that targeted technical revisions can achieve more than major visual changes. The new suspension setup significantly lifts the model, while the proven two-cylinder engine continues to impress with its riding pleasure and suitability for everyday use. If you are looking for a versatile, stable and affordable naked bike, the Hornet is a well-engineered overall package with only a few weaknesses.

Stable, revised suspension with very good riding performance

Powerful and cultivated two-cylinder engine with a wide usable torque curve

Good ergonomics and confidence-inspiring riding position

Extensive standard equipment including TFT display, riding modes, traction control

Low fuel consumption and easy to maintain

A2 throttle adjustable

Typical Honda reliability and solid workmanship

Simple processing details (e.g. swing arm) partly visibly due to the price
