KTM 125 Duke 2016

KTM 125 Duke 2016

For 16-year-olds and B-111 owners, the KTM 125 Duke is a blessing because it is not a small moped brand, but a real motorbike brand with sporty prestige and a high coolness factor. Motorcyclists who have outgrown school age will miss performance and are more likely to use the smallest Duke for very short everyday trips, if at all. I would then rather prefer a scooter, which also has storage space.

Extremely manoeuvrable

high-quality equipment

power parts for individualisation

little comfort

modest performance

Honda SH125i 2013

Honda SH125i 2013

The Honda SH125i has been a practical and reliable companion for years, so it's no wonder that it sells very well. The current version is better than ever, the engine is lively and the start-stop system also saves a little fuel - the green thumb is already up. The handling is very stable thanks to the large 16-inch tyres, but it doesn't get unwieldy in bends either - after all, at 134 kilos ready to ride, there's not too much mass to move. The compartment under the saddle can hold a full-face helmet, and the top case can also hold another helmet or bits and pieces, making it one of the best luggage compartments.

agile engine

stable handling

very good brakes

sufficient luggage space

start-stop system
