    I’ve had one of these since January and love it. To pick up on a few things on the video, I’ve wound the suspension into comfort mode which helps a bit with no real downside for normal riding. I also ride with it permanently in road mode. On longer rides the only comfort issue I have is with my backside starting to go a bit numb, but I get that on most bikes. Overall this summer has been a lot of fun on it and I’m really happy with my choice

    When I read that Triumph had improved the low and mid range on the RS I thought I might exchange my 2018 Street triple R for it but after riding the 2020 RS and R I found the R is still a much better road bike with firm but comfortable suspension and still better low and mid range, so I did change my bike but for the 2018 R with quickshifter/auto blipper.

    Would appreciate your impressions of the 890 Duke - a lot of reviewers seem to have flipped from favouring the Triumph STRS over the old 790 Duke to now preferring the 890. To my mind they are simply different , near-supermoto style vs near-sports.

  • @Englishbikerdan

    @Englishbikerdan

    3 жыл бұрын

    KTM only has two bikes in the Supermoto range currently, (here anyway) the 450 SMR and 690 SMCR. The Duke range fall under their 'Naked Bike' category. Triumph call their naked bike 'Roadsters' but they both occupy the same market space and are battling each other for dominance. The 790 and Street Triple R felt similar in terms of chassis but the engine and power delivery is the where I felt they differ the most. I've not yet ridden the 890 and it might have to wait till next year now so I can get it for a couple of weeks. For me, KTM are a more raw experience, with the emphasis on fun but not quite as polished as the Street Triple. This also carries over to the aesthetics, KTM use more vivid colours and have interesting/angular designs where as Triumph are more sleek and slightly muted. One thing is for sure though, KTM are shaking the sector up. The Duke range are light, fun bikes and it's only a good thing as far as I'm concerned.

  • @dardobartoli
    @dardobartoli Жыл бұрын

    I owned the previous generation and am currenty thinking of getting this version as my fun bike. The only negative that I still see on this range of bikes is why the light cluster 'juts out' as you say. I can see no reason for this design and don't know anyone who think it looks OK.

    That's supposed to be striple, both times!! Btw, the Duke was also a lot cheaper for a new one. I swapped in a 2018 Bmw r1200r and no regrets. 3000 miles in 3 months.

    @@IIxMURPHYxII Cool! You can go down the A2 route and get a bike that has no more than 47 ponies. There's a few good ones to choose from, the Honda 500 range are all good starting points and the KTM 390 Duke is hilariously fun too. Or you can get a full power bike (not more than 94bhp stock) and restrict it down to 47bhp. The bonus of that is that once you pass the A1 license you can take of the restrictor and in some cases almost double the power. CB650R, MTT07, Triumph Trident or Street Triple S would be good options for that. There's almost too much choice these days!

    I think you have you inseam length wrong. The Street Triple RS is 825mm as you said. However that equates to 32.4 inches. Since you flat-foot the bike, your inseam is more than 30 inches, which you state in your description. .... I am guessing you are going of your jeans fitting measurements, for 30 inches. Sorry if I got this wrong. Am really tired tonight. Just thought I'd mention it, as it's possibly useful to you.

    @@marcusgeorge1825 If I use your argument about you riding lots of bikes around track (more bikes = more time) there's no reason that would make you any better. Doing loads of track days won't necessarily make you a better road rider. I know so many really fast track riders that are shocking on the road. My logic is, as a general rule more time spent doing something, makes you better at it. I think that's a fairly universally accepted thing. There's always exceptions to every rule though.

    @@Englishbikerdan you are missing the single point and have actually supported what I’m trying to say. I’m not arguing with you as I’ve done countless more miles on the road than a track. I haven’t done a significant amount of track days, which I feel every level of rider will get better and safer as it’s in a controlled environment. 90% of my “track days” have actually been in proper races, where you need to first qualify to at the very least meet minimum requirements to actually competitively race! This experience along has made me a better and safer rider on the roads where you aren’t trying to win. Meaning you learn your limits, respect them and don’t go anywhere near them in the “real” world. Just riding around on the road can’t possibly equip anyone with the knowledge of each individuals limits. I like that you rode very conservatively, and I’m not saying you can’t go faster as everyone has limitations. All I’m saying is in a controlled environment you can safely push the boundaries, where you can’t on any road. Safely. I really do hope this makes sense, not only to yourself but to everyone else out there. Years of riding really don’t add up to much and after riding on the roads for 30 years I know I would only be 10% of what I’m capable of doing now with racing experience on a variety of machines, inclusive of factory backed ones as I know I can comfortably ride safer on the roads with countless races on countless tracks around the world.

I know too many riders no longer with us who thought they were the dogs danglies. Now off road riding, that definitely helped me get better as a rider on the road. I used to ride very quickly on the road but it's a numbers game and eventually you'll run out of luck. Anyway, sorry I just don't agree that track days are better at improving your road riding than more experience on the road. Better yet, some advanced lessons on the road.
