Prós e contras em comparação
Prós e contras em comparação
KTM 890 Duke 2021

A antecessora 790 Duke já provou que a KTM sabe como construir uma moto naked de gama média para a estrada. A nova 890 carrega a tocha com um peito inchado e mais uma vez faz jus à sua alcunha de bisturi. Viva, puxa os raios e transmite um certo nervosismo que pode ser interpretado como um carácter selvagem. O equipamento está quase completo - mas só quase. Porque é que se tem de pagar um extra pela alavanca de velocidades, quando esta era de série no antecessor? É ainda mais irritante que a mudança de velocidades sem embraiagem funcione tão suavemente como manteiga e que não se queira passar sem ela.
KTM 1290 Super Duke R 2017

A KTM é e continua a ser a moto naked mais brutal do mercado. A posição de assento vertical combinada com a potência selvagem da V2 fazem-na parecer mais brutal do que é no papel. Foi melhorada precisamente nos seus pontos mais fracos. O motor funciona agora de forma mais suave, o assistente de mudança de velocidades proporciona calma na fase de aceleração e o chassis foi melhorado. Continua a gostar mais da perseguição selvagem do que da alta velocidade em curva em curvas longas.
