BMW F 450 GS 2026
With the F 450 GS, BMW has made a convincing entry into the highly competitive A2 enduro bike segment. The 420 cubic centimetre two-cylinder engine impresses with its smooth running and linear power delivery, where single-cylinder competitors annoy with raw vibrations. The suspension shines with sporty agility and enduro bike comfort in equal measure, while the electronics work discreetly in the background. The Bavarian shows weaknesses when it comes to the accessibility for short fingers on the brakes and clutch lever and the lack of cruise control. Anyone looking for a versatile, high-quality enduro bike for an A2 licence and beyond will find a coherent overall package in the F 450 GS. The Easy Ride clutch rides amazingly well and offers comfort and safety in equal measure. Less experienced riders in particular benefit significantly here, which is a unique selling point in this segment!
KTM 390 Duke 2018
The KTM 390 Duke is a "real" Duke. The trademark: Extremely agile handling that makes for powerful riding fun. The flyweight 390 can be precisely controlled with its narrow waist and wide handlebars and feels most at home in tight corners. Especially with the Supermoto mode, it is a fun machine without equal. Unfortunately, only the brakes and suspension of the 390 cannot maintain the same, very high performance level as on the 125 Duke or 890 Duke. They feel a bit spongy and not optimally tuned, especially when the rider weighs in a bit more. The equipment is otherwise tip-top, especially when you consider the price of the 390 Duke. In terms of riding pleasure/euros, it outperforms most, including its Duke sisters.
