Prós e contras em comparação
KTM 690 Duke 2016

É inacreditável como a KTM desenvolveu o monocilíndrico sem sacrificar o desempenho. Pode ser considerado um golpe de génio o facto de, no âmbito da norma EURO4, a cultura de funcionamento do motor ter sido aumentada, aumentando ao mesmo tempo a potência. A curva de binário plana é responsável pela propulsão suave e potente. A partir das 4000 rotações, a Duke empurra com força e atinge as 8500 rotações. Mesmo a baixas rotações, o motor não gagueja nem engole, o que é uma vantagem na cidade. A maior força da Duke, para além da sua capacidade de condução, é a sua manobrabilidade, razão pela qual se pode dizer que é um brinquedo. Só quando estamos na pista de corridas e a atacar com força é que desejamos ter o "R" debaixo do rabo.
Honda CB650R 2023

A CB650R da Honda prova de forma brilhante que as motos naked de quatro cilindros com pouca cilindrada são também uma verdadeira fonte de alegria na estrada rural. A afinação do motor fornece pressão suficiente na curva e recompensa com um maravilhoso grito de quatro cilindros após uma curta espera. Os componentes do chassis oferecem um equilíbrio sólido entre a vida quotidiana e a desportividade.
