Ducati Monster 1200 S 2016

Ducati Monster 1200 S 2016

Ducati returns to consistency and brings out more of the classic character of the Monster, while the design has been sharpened in small steps: Shorter tail, shorter wheelbase, smaller tank. The engine has become cleaner and more powerful at the same time, the electronics more comprehensive. In addition to ABS and TC, the Monster also has wheelie control, and the S version even has cornering ABS. The standard quickshifter underlines the sportiness of the Monster, which could be more aggressive in its power delivery. On the other hand, these 150 hp can be ridden by a very wide range of customers.

Aprilia Tuono V4 1100 Factory 2017

Aprilia Tuono V4 1100 Factory 2017

A fascinatingly perfect motorbike. It rides easily, stably, precisely and quickly. You could almost say it's too perfect to pass for an emotional Italian. But the awesome V4 sound pulls it out again in 2017. For some, the Tuono as a naked bike is too close to a super sports bike. If that doesn't bother you, you'll love it as the best bike in its class.

Best electronics package in the nakedbike league

Super-sport level cornering speed and precision

Stable chassis

Excellent brakes

Spookily easy to ride

200hp served up with unbelievably perfect control

Sporty original equipment tyres

Very cool bike, but for some riders not brutal enough

no configuration options ex works

suspension is great, but not semi-active - for mixed road/track use you have to screw it on.
