No, our high expectations were by no means disappointed – not even a bit! The R 1200 GS Rally not only made us very good, but it makes it really difficult for us to find criticisms. Well, it's quite expensive. But quality has a price. And if you look at the prices on the second-hand market, you have to say that gs keeps its value quite long. In addition, it is of course up to everyone to decide whether they really need all the equipment packages. Clearly all do their tasks reliably and well, however, drive up the price again neatly. And already in the basic equipment we have to deal with a mature, great bike!
So KTM has delivered a cheat pack, because neither is it a beast, nor a duke. What luck. It is a power on the street, but a manageable one. The Super Duke stands for driving fun without end, when the sheer performance counts. It is pure irrationality, a fun bike without high utility value.
If you are looking for something like this, you will be happy here, provided you like the edgy design. But isn't that always the case?
The test bike was provided to us by Bergmann & Söhne in Hamburg.
