KTM 1290 Super Duke R 2021

KTM 1290 Super Duke R 2021

The KTM 1290 Super Duke R retains its brute character for 2022 if you take the beast by the horns. But the Hyper Naked from Mattighofen is also convincing in everyday use and presents itself as a mature all-round companion. Small details could use a little love, but nothing that spoils the positive overall impression of the 1290 Super Duke R.

brutal performance

accessible handling

fully adjustable and stable chassis

high quality standard tyres

comfortable seating position

acceptable fuel consumption.

Full equipment wants to be paid for

fiddly indicator operation

Honda CBR1000RR Fireblade SP 2015

The Honda CBR 1000 RR Fireblade SP may be a 1000cc bike, but it never looks threatening. It feels compact, inspires confidence and offers a lot of riding fun. A combination that not many motorbikes can manage. It is sensational on the country road, and great for trackdays on the race track. However, the road to a real racing machine is probably a little longer than with another 1000cc.

Low weight that you can also feel in the saddle

compact but not uncomfortable riding position

high-quality workmanship

sensible electronics package

easy and intuitive to move.

ABS first bottleneck on the race track

not suitable for racing applications
