KTM 1290 Super Duke R 2021

The KTM Super Duke R has evolved perfectly over the generations: The engine is strong, has a huge amount of torque and in the current version also works excellently from low revs. However, the excellent interaction of all components is responsible for the overall wonderful performance of the big Duke. The active seating position is comfortable and unbelievably driving-friendly, the chassis is of a high standard, the brakes are powerful and the electronics are state of the art. Even the looks are now pleasing more and more critics. It's just a shame that you have to pay extra for the ingenious shift assistant with blipper.

Sedežni položaj je športen, vendar nikakor ne neudoben, zavore so močne, motor modela S 1000 R pa je najboljši - morda celo nekoliko preveč homogen. Tudi na področju vožnje se ni mogoče pritoževati. Na podlagi čistih podatkov o zmogljivosti in vgrajenih elektronskih funkcij ima BMW verjetno vse potrebno za najhitrejši čas kroga. In to na kakršni koli podlagi, saj lahko s polaktivnim vzmetenjem na slabih cestah, posejanih z luknjami, požirate kilometer za kilometrom. Na žalost se ta občutek superiornosti ni nikoli zares prenesel na voznika. Verjetno je to slaba stran prevelike uravnoteženosti na vseh področjih - vsaj v mojih italijanofilskih očeh. BMW-ju je manjkalo tisto nekaj, karizma, ki jo je težko razložiti, a vzbuja pristna čustva.
