Pros and Cons in comparison
Suzuki V-Strom 1050 XT 2022
Even though the new V-Strom 1050 has moved up in price to a league in which it has to be compared more with the competition than before, it has remained true to itself despite the most modern safety features, or rather, it has remained an uncomplicated motorbike that is ready for the big journey. Its favourite terrain is the road, which, thanks to the good chassis, can also be bad and bumpy. Off-road passages are no problem either, but those who regularly seek rougher terrain will be less likely to end up with the Suzuki due to its mighty weight. On paved roads, however, the mass can be moved surprisingly quickly and effortlessly. The addictive engine, the successful retro design and the extreme suitability for touring make the Suzuki V-Strom 1050 XT a top motorbike for long journeys.
KTM 1290 Super Duke R 2023
The KTM 1290 Super Duke R retains its brute character for 2022 if you take the beast by the horns. But the Hyper Naked from Mattighofen is also convincing in everyday use and presents itself as a mature all-round companion. Small details could use a little love, but nothing that spoils the positive overall impression of the 1290 Super Duke R.
