Pros and Cons in comparison

Suzuki GSR 600 2010

Unfortunately, our editors did not test this model.

KTM 690 Duke 2012

The new Duke also has an insanely hard core. With the money saved - the new Duke is significantly cheaper than the old Duke R - with a little investment you can build a real KTM racing machine again and drive the Nippon racers to despair.

Extremely fast yet smooth

precise, manageable chassis

very agile.

Driving bends in the road takes some getting used to.
