KTM 890 SMT 2024

KTM 890 SMT 2024

The KTM 890 SMT is a bike that oscillates between two worlds - too sporty for touring riders, too heavy for real supermoto fans. But this niche is precisely where its appeal lies: if you are looking for an agile, touring bike with supermoto genes, the 890 SMT is a real fun machine that boldly defies the mainstream. Despite minor weaknesses in terms of comfort and image, it is an insider tip for individualists - and is currently particularly attractive thanks to discounts.

Unique concept: Supermoto meets touring

Agile handling: Surprisingly manoeuvrable for its weight

Powerful engine: Powerful 889 cubic centimetre two-cylinder engine

Sporty riding position: Front-wheel orientated, lots of riding pleasure

Solid comfort: Suitable for touring shorter distances

Unclear target group: Neither touring nor pure supermoto

Vibrations: Noticeable from approx. 80 km/h

Moderate wind protection: Windscreen hardly provides any protection

Suzuki V-Strom 800 2024

Suzuki V-Strom 800 2024

The new 800 has become a real V-Strom that can do what a V-Strom has to do. An everyday motorbike in the most positive sense, a bike for everyday use as well as for long journeys. It will certainly also appeal to the many fans of the V-Strom 650, as it has a significantly more powerful engine with otherwise similar attributes.

superior, powerful engine

great quickshifter up/down as standard

good brakes

good seat comfort and wind protection

suitable for long distances

accessible seating position

Off-road, the suspension is under-damped and not fully adjustable
