Pros and Cons in comparison

Aprilia Tuareg 660 Rally 2025

The Aprilia Tuareg Rally proves that even an adventure bike with 660 cubic centimetres can be a lot of fun in today's world. It combines the best of both worlds - the power and character of a real rally bike with the comfort of an adventure bike. Off-road, it provides an enormous amount of feedback and quickly inspires confidence. On the road, it scores points with its quickshifter, cruise control and travel accessories direct from Aprilias.

Revised engine mapping with poisonous throttle response

Very stable off-road handling

Amazing sound for Euro 5+

Quickshifter and cruise control included

Narrower rims for real enduro tyres

Easy operation of the Advanced Rider Assistance Systems

Stand comes to heel when standing

Linear suspension reduces comfort on the road

Frequent shifting necessary for constant power

Ducati Multistrada V2 S 2023

The Ducati Multistrada V2 S impresses with its sporty DNA, state-of-the-art technology and agile riding performance. It is the first choice for dynamic riders who value performance and precision when travelling. Despite its lower weight, it impresses with its high stability and comprehensive electronics package. Minor weaknesses such as the limited comfort at lower speeds or the somewhat clunky quickshifter in tight hairpins hardly spoil the positive overall picture.

Versatile, semi-active suspension

well-modulated brakes

sporty yet comfortable riding position

well suited for smaller riders

extensive standard equipment comfortable for pillion riders

sporty, revvy engine with typical Ducati character

light weight of only 225 kg - ideal for sporty handling

extensive electronics package including cornering ABS, traction control and quickshifter

narrow waist, optimum ergonomics for smaller riders

Torque somewhat restrained at low revs

quickshifter not always liquid at low speeds

seat comfort on long lengths less pronounced than on touring-orientated competitors
