Triumph Thruxton 1200R 2016

Triumph Thruxton 1200R 2016

A masterpiece in combining classic design and new technology. The new Thruxton R is a retro naked bike with serious sporting ambitions that need not fear a trip to the racetrack. The engine is a blast and the brakes and chassis are of the highest standard. The ABS and TC riding aids are on board as standard and can be switched off if required. With 2 Inspiration kits, a Race kit and over 160 accessories, the Thruxton is infinitely customisable. Perhaps the best attempt yet to combine history with the future.

Full torque

strong brakes

top chassis

anti-hopping

ABS, TC and 3 riding modes standard

KTM 1190 Adventure 2015

KTM 1190 Adventure 2015

The KTM 1190 Adventure is an absolute all-rounder, there is no demand that it does not fulfil: It combines sport, touring, mountain passes and off-road riding. With hardly any other "all-rounder" motorbike is it so fast - even on the racetrack the 1190 Adventure cuts a fine figure with its 150 hp. An unbeatable climber, especially on narrow mountain roads, but also a pleasant companion on the daily ride to work. Also included is a comprehensive electronics package with adjustable power modes, traction control and even a lean angle ABS is on board.

Combines sport with comfort

buttery smooth gearbox

powerful and well controllable engine

excellent seating position

handy chassis

sophisticated electronics

lean angle ABS

Engine jerks a little below 3000 revs

unlike its predecessor, it no longer looks quite so independent

smooth gliding is not its strong point
