K 1300 S 2009 vs Speed Triple 1200 RR 2024

In terms of raw performance, these two are evenly matched. The K 1300 S and Speed Triple 1200 RR produce nearly identical power figures, meaning the real-world difference will come down to gearing and torque delivery rather than peak horsepower. When it comes to agility, the Speed Triple 1200 RR has a clear advantage. Weighing in 55kg less than the K 1300 S, it will feel significantly easier to handle in low-speed traffic, parking maneuvers, and twisty corners. Bottom Line: While both are capable, the speed-triple1200 offers a superior power-to-weight ratio, making it the more exciting machine for experienced riders.
