Are there so many people who don't need 100 hp to stabilise their ego? I think with previous single-cylinder models, it was always the design that was the problem, not the lack of power. The Duke manages to look really high-quality even as a small single-cylinder.

Stable frame

relatively low overall weight

good chassis

high-quality components

strong braking system

handling.

Significantly weaker single-cylinder engine

somewhat less comfort

somewhat less power.
