Avantages et inconvénients en comparaison
KTM 1290 Super Duke R 2018

Le surnom de "Beast" n'est pas totalement usurpé, la KTM est et reste une naked bike brutale - 177 ch issus de deux pots d'une cylindrée totale de 1301 cm3 n'ont rien d'anodin. Pourtant, elle est étonnamment facile à maîtriser, grâce à sa position de conduite droite combinée à une bonne maniabilité, elle semble presque docile. Par rapport à son prédécesseur, elle a été améliorée avec précision sur ses principaux points faibles. Le moteur tourne désormais plus calmement, l'assistant de changement de vitesse apporte de la sérénité lors des phases d'accélération et le châssis a gagné en qualité. Mais elle aime toujours plus la course effrénée que la vitesse élevée dans les longs virages.
Ducati Streetfighter V2 2022

Avec le Streetfighter V2, Ducati a modifié la supersport Panigale V2 et l'a rendue plus adaptée à la vie quotidienne. Malgré la proximité visuelle avec le Streetfighter V4, elle possède un caractère propre et des allures qui rendent la vie avec elle un peu difficile, mais en contrepartie intéressante. Le fonctionnement saccadé du moteur à bas régime ne dérange manifestement pas les Ducatistes, qui se réjouissent plutôt des 153 ch qui s'accrochent bien à l'accélérateur, des composants du châssis qui réagissent avec finesse, des freins de qualité et d'un équipement électronique complet - seule la jauge à essence a été oubliée. La Streetfighter V2 s'oriente toutefois vers le haut en matière de prix, à l'instar de ses qualités de conduite, vers les motos hyper-naked.
