Even a Super Duke is in a tight spot when the bends are not too sharp and the KTM can make full use of its radical handling and its unrivalled ability to correct the radius on naked bikes.

The Speed Triple remains true to its line in the latest generation - a wonderfully sharp naked bike that characterises the streetfighter style like hardly any other model. It only makes limited sense for the racetrack - of course, the roaring three-cylinder engine with 140 hp is enormous fun and the Fafhrwerk shows no gross weaknesses, but there is a Speed Triple R with Öhlins suspension elements that naturally feels more at home on the racetrack. All in all, the Speed Triple S is an excellent country road fighter that also has a lot to offer in terms of looks.
