KTM 990 Duke 2024
In a direct comparison, the KTM 990 Duke is the more sensible choice, without feeling sensible or even boring. Its 123 Horsepower twin-cylinder engine delivers the same powerful grunt from low revs as the R, runs smoothly and is hardly any less fun on country roads. The softer WP suspension also offers sufficient support for a very sporty pace, whilst remaining slightly more accessible in everyday use and on longer journeys. For most riders, the standard Duke is perfectly adequate. It’s only during very hard braking manoeuvres, at high cornering speeds or with regular track use that it reaches its limits sooner than the R. Those who can do without the more modern touchscreen get a powerful, versatile naked bike with surprisingly good long-distance capabilities.
Husqvarna Vitpilen 801 2025
The Vitpilen 801 sets visual accents that clearly distinguish it from the Svartpilen. The bi-LED projection headlight is surrounded by halo LED daytime running lights, giving the front end a more modern look. In addition, the aluminium tubular handlebars have been mounted lower and further towards the front wheel, making the ergonomics more active and sporty. The manifold fairing extends further down and gives the look an additional touch of sportiness. Compared to the previous "701" generation, the new Vitpilen is far less radical and much more suitable for everyday use. The in-line two-cylinder engine, which is already familiar from other Pierer Group models, offers a great riding pleasure experience. The engine's smooth throttle response and revviness are particularly successful. A great engine for the country road! The quickshifter from the accessories is definitely an absolute recommendation. If you also add the optional cruise control and heated grips, the 801 Vitpilen is a great companion for everyday use and travelling. For the latter, it is not only absolutely suitable due to the relaxed knee angle and good seating comfort, the low fuel consumption is also a positive feature.
