MV Agusta Turismo Veloce 800 2015

MV Agusta Turismo Veloce 800 2015

Assuming that the Turismo Veloce 800 is MV Agusta's first strike in the touring motorbike sector, it can certainly be considered extremely successful. The design alone is already ravishing, but the riding performance goes one better. Above all, the engine and handling play at an extremely high level, which on the one hand does not ignore the necessary touring comfort, but on the other hand also takes MV Agusta's sporting tradition into account. All in all, the whole package is just tremendous fun - both in the tighter tangle of bends and on wider tracks. The only real weak point is the high price, but this also preserves a certain exclusivity. Anyone who has cleared this hurdle at the cash desk will be rewarded with a universally usable motorbike that is always fun and enjoyable everywhere - in front of the ice cream parlour as well as on winding mountain passes.

KTM 1290 Super Duke GT 2018

With generous standard equipment, a retuned engine and unmistakably edgy KTM design, the 1290 Super Duke GT aims to enter the sport touring segment. With rideable performance and the full power of the naked bike in the spirit of the "Ready-to-Race" credo, it stands out from the competition not only visually. The mattighofen sports fanatics even fit heated grips and cruise control to offer frequent riders a nice spot. Somehow they still manage to remain credible and to trigger storms of enthusiasm in the rider.
