Ducati Multistrada 950 S 2019
On the other hand, the Ducati Multistrada 950 S boasts an electronically adjustable Skyhook chassis, an elegant look similar to the larger Multistrada 1260 models, a cultivated engine, stable brakes, a comfortable seating position, a comprehensive electronics package, and a good height-adjustable windshield.
However, the KTM 1050 Adventure does have some weaknesses. Its rev limiter kicks in at 8500 revs, and its chassis may be a little too soft for off-road use. In comparison, the Ducati Multistrada 950 S is more expensive and its saddle integrated deep into the machine may not be everyone's preference. Additionally, it is not well-suited for off-road use on an enduro bike.
Overall, both the KTM 1050 Adventure 2016 and the Ducati Multistrada 950 S 2019 offer unique features and strengths. The choice between the two will depend on individual preferences and priorities, such as price, performance, and intended usage.

KTM 1050 Adventure 2016

Po mojem mnenju KTM 1050 Adventure nadaljuje tam, kjer se je pred nekaj leti končal model 990 Adventure: Približno 100 KM moči, igrivo upravljanje in toliko ali manj elektronike, kolikor je trenutno na voljo. Motor je vse prej kot šibek, ABS in nadzor vleke uravnavata varno in neopazno, upravljanje pa je izjemno zabavno, deloma tudi zaradi razmeroma ozkih pnevmatik. In vse to po ceni, ki jo v ligi velikih potovalnih endurov zaostaja le nekaj konkurentov. Čeprav je žalostno, so se cene obeh 1190 Adventure in predvsem paradnega konja 1290 Super Adventure povzpele na zelo visoko raven. In prav zato je KTM 1050 Adventure morda najbolj skladen med štirimi modeli Adventure.
Ducati Multistrada 950 S 2019

Multistrada 950 S spretno združuje več Ducatijevih modelov in ustvarja vrhunski potovalni enduro v višjem srednjem razredu. Videz ostaja skoraj nespremenjen glede na velikega modela Multistrada 1260 - kar mu seveda daje izjemen prestiž. Motor s 114 KM prihaja iz serije Hypermotard, in čeprav mora mali Multi S nositi 30 kilogramov več kot Hypermotard 950, ga je še vedno mogoče voziti v živahnem tempu. Najbrž ni treba posebej poudarjati, da je udobje pri potovalnem enduru na prvem mestu. Opremljen z bogato elektroniko zmore vse, kar mora početi sodobno turno kolo, z elektronsko nastavljivim vzmetenjem Skyhook pa ponuja tudi izjemno fino dodatno opremo.
