KTM 690 Duke 2018

Glede na to, kje se je družina KTM Duke nekoč začela, je 690 Duke neverjeten korak naprej. Motor je izredno prefinjen in hkrati hrupen za ulični enovaljnik. Kljub vsej vgrajeni tehnologiji je to še vedno zelo lahek motocikel in ga lahko skorajda označimo za igračo (v dobrem smislu). Mnenja deli le njegov položaj sedenja, saj je z modelom Duke 4 iz leta 2012 nekdanji supermoto postal skoraj ukročen goli motocikel s sedežem, usmerjenim na sprednje kolo. Prednost: vsakodnevno življenje in dolge ture na trenutnem Duku ne bi smele predstavljati težav.
Suzuki SV 650 2021

Suzuki SV 650 je na trgu že 25 let, dlje kot katero koli drugo motorno kolo. Motor je bil posodobljen v skladu s standardom Euro5 in je zdaj še bolj zrel, kar se jasno ujema s preostalim paketom. SV 650 ne želi prestrašiti nikogar, zlasti ne začetnikov. Podvozje daje trden, neagresiven vtis, zavore zahtevajo veliko ročne sile, da preprečijo nepričakovano pretirano zaviranje. Videz je po eni strani brezčasen, po drugi strani pa so nekatere komponente res nekoliko zastarele. Po drugi strani pa je cena poštena, kot je za Suzuki običajno.
