KTM 1390 Super Duke R 2024
The Hammer engine is certainly one of the most fundamental elements of the new 1390 Super Duke R. There is no other manufacturer that can achieve this level of performance with a V2 engine while at the same time running smoothly and complying with all emissions standards. The engine alone guarantees pure riding pleasure and enables power wheelies up to third gear with good modulation. This means that the Beast has actually been sharpened up again and offers enormous fun on the race track as well as on the road, even if you have to be extremely restrained there to avoid having to give up your licence forever.
BMW M 1000 R 2023
The M 1000 R is definitely well done and the whole package fits. Even though it is certainly aimed more at sporty riders, the bike can also prove itself well on longer country road rides with minor restrictions in terms of riding comfort. The lower, straight handlebars and forward seating position in combination with the higher footrests automatically result in a sportier dynamic that does not give rise to couch feelings, especially on longer rides. On the other hand, there is good contact with the front wheel and sufficient lean angle freedom. In combination with the powerful drive, the Hyper Naked definitely plays in the top league. Apart from slight vibrations, the powerful RR engine is a force to be reckoned with in the naked segment. The new electronics help even less experienced riders to release the concentrated power in a controlled manner with conservative settings.
