Pros and Cons in comparison
KTM 690 Duke 2013
For pure fun, the 690 Duke without the R is already sufficient. The potent single-cylinder engine is almost identical, as is the weight and handling, and the appearance is too similar to be a real selling point for the 690 Duke R.
Kawasaki Ninja 500 SE 2024
The Kawasaki Ninja 500 SE impresses as a versatile bike with an excellent power-to-weight ratio that is suitable for both sporty riding and everyday use. With a powerful 450cc two-cylinder engine and a weight of just 171 kg, it offers agile handling and sporty riding performance. The riding position is comfortable and the brakes and clutch work precisely and reliably. Although the bike has no traction control, the engine is easy to control. The outdated display and menu navigation as well as the average sound of the engine are criticised. Despite these shortcomings, the Ninja 500 SE offers excellent value for money and is an attractive choice for riders in the A2 segment.
