KTM 990 Duke 2024

In a direct comparison, the KTM 990 Duke is the more sensible choice, without feeling sensible or even boring. Its 123 Horsepower twin-cylinder engine delivers the same powerful grunt from low revs as the R, runs smoothly and is hardly any less fun on country roads. The softer WP suspension also offers sufficient support for a very sporty pace, whilst remaining slightly more accessible in everyday use and on longer journeys. For most riders, the standard Duke is perfectly adequate. It’s only during very hard braking manoeuvres, at high cornering speeds or with regular track use that it reaches its limits sooner than the R. Those who can do without the more modern touchscreen get a powerful, versatile naked bike with surprisingly good long-distance capabilities.
Ducati Monster 2026

With its exceptionally well-balanced engine, Ducati has produced a superb engine for the fifth generation of the Monster. The very low weight of both the engine and the bike contributes to its ‘lightness of being’ and, combined with the excellent, easy-to-operate clutch, results in a straightforward riding experience. With its low seat height and good ergonomics, the Monster is also very well suited to beginners, whilst its smooth power delivery ensures plenty of riding pleasure for experienced riders too. With its fuel tank design and lines inspired by the original Monster, die-hard Monsteristi are sure to be filled with wistful memories of 1992, when Ducati launched the first ‘Monster’. With its high-torque engine, Ducati delivers not only the looks but also the performance you’d expect from a modern Monster featuring cutting-edge technology. So, for 2026, we can confidently adopt Jar Jar Binks’ slogan from *Star Wars*, who, startled by eerie creatures, briefly declared: “We’ve got monsters again!”
