Pros and Cons in comparison
BMW F 900 XR 2023

A bike in this performance class probably couldn't be more accessible. The XR waggles playfully through the bends and immediately inspires confidence in the saddle. Even lengthy touring is easy and you always get out of the saddle feeling relaxed. However, the sporty look of the BMW also awakens a desire for some thrills. However, the engine cannot quite fulfil this desire. The engine, transmission and quickshifter are a little too tame overall and could do with a little more sportiness.
KTM 390 Duke 2024

The KTM 390 Duke is a bike that can polarise. Its strengths lie in its extensive electronic equipment, agile handling and ability to serve as a fun bike for young riders. However, the firm riding position and inconsistent engine tuning could be annoying for experienced riders. Yet the KTM 390 Duke offers plenty of riding pleasure, especially in urban environments and on sporty rides.
