Pros and Cons in comparison
Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R 2015
The ZX-10R was right in the middle during the test. It was not as fast and radical as the R1, Panigale, BMW and Aprilia. But it was also sportier than the Honda and Suzuki. While Honda and Suzuki would need completely new bikes to catch up with the top, Kawasaki would only have to give the ZX-10R a small update. But satisfied ZX-10R riders need not despair. The gap to the top is small enough to catch up with a few accessories. Because the ZX-10R has one decisive advantage. It has been on the market for a long time and there are enough parts available, including the necessary setup information. If you don't want to get involved in any experiments, take a Kawasaki and with a few simple steps you will also be at the top.
KTM 1290 Super Duke R 2016
KTM knows no turning back and KTM knows no quarter. That's why the new 1290 Super Duke R is a little easier to handle than its predecessor, but also a little stronger and faster. Already at 2500 rpm, over 100 Nm are available, the maximum is 141, the top performance is stated at 177 hp. That may be too much, but it doesn't have to be. The electronics remain the lifeline in this category, where development continues to move forward strongly. KTM has started where it had difficulties and that was stability. Changes to the geometry and chassis have improved this significantly, making the ride on the beast not only faster, but also safer. The handling is no less radical for that, and the supermoto genes are more evident than on any other naked bike. There can only be one Super Duke.
