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.

Powerful V2 with unrivalled smoothness and responsiveness

Wide range of applications from country roads to race tracks

Good ergonomics

Outstanding stability in fast corners and under braking

Precise handling on the race track

Excellent Assistance Systems and Quickshifter

Impressive engine performance that is also suitable for everyday use

Automatic gearshift somewhat rough under partial load TC control too much even at the lowest level

Suspension of the "R" has weaknesses for racetrack use - front dips a little too much

The housings of the switch units on the handlebars give way slightly and move

Many accessories at extra cost, e.g. automatic gearshift

Wide tank restricts active riding positions somewhat

Kawasaki Ninja H2R 2015

Kawasaki Ninja H2R 2015

The Kawasaki crew had a vision. To build a motorbike that creates excitement and pushes into completely new dimensions in terms of performance and technology. This vision has succeeded. The 326 hp machine can be piloted by experienced riders without acute danger to their lives. The intensity of the acceleration is indescribable. But the perfect overall appearance of the motorbike with countless high-quality details is also thrilling. Compared to normal motorbikes, the H2 R has its weaknesses in throttle response and line precision at high speeds. All in all, the H2 R is the most fascinating motorbike of all time for the test pilot and can be recommended to petrol junkies with a clear conscience. The H2 R is available for the price of a well-equipped German-made premium estate - only with "a little" more adrenaline.

Quality of workmanship

Power, torque, traction, surprisingly low maintenance requirements in the 300 hp league

Acceleration - as if from another star

Engine control is basically very good

If you are taller than 185 cm, be sure to try it out - it could be tight for your feet

High-quality details in all corners

Over 300 hp, but still the highest quality standards from series production

Superb paintwork

Excellent brakes

Great stability in every situation.

Engine response at the first few degrees of throttle

Understeer at high speeds

Higher maintenance than normal bikes

The sound is infernal - you can love it, but it can also cause problems on race tracks.
