Ducati Multistrada 950 S 2019

The Multistrada 950 S skilfully combines several Ducati models to create a superior touring enduro in the upper mid-range. The look remains almost unchanged from the big Multistrada 1260 - which of course gives it enormous prestige. The 114 hp engine comes from the Hypermotard series, and although the little Multi S has to carry 30 kilos more than the Hypermotard 950, it can still be ridden at a brisk pace. It should go without saying that comfort is a top priority on a touring enduro. Equipped with a wealth of electronics, it can do everything a modern touring bike has to do, and with the electronically adjustable Skyhook suspension, it also offers an extremely fine extra.
BMW F 850 GS 2019

The BMW F 850 GS also scores points in 2022 with its pleasant ergonomics and accessible character. Operation is easy and you quickly feel comfortable on the motorbike. The longer the tour, the more you miss the finesse in the details. The damping of the fork is too lax and not adjustable. The engine gets a bit boring in the long run, and the gearstick and quickshifter are always stiff. In direct comparison with other touring enduros, it is always somewhat overshadowed by more exciting models.
