KTM 1050 Adventure 2015

KTM 1050 Adventure navazuje na model 990 Adventure, který před několika lety skončil: Výkon kolem 100 koní, hravé jízdní vlastnosti a tolik nebo tolik elektroniky, kolik je v současnosti nejmodernější. Motor je všechno, jen ne slabý, ABS a kontrola trakce regulují bezpečně a nenápadně a jízdní vlastnosti jsou mimořádně zábavné, mimo jiné díky relativně úzkým pneumatikám. A to vše za cenu, kterou v lize velkých cestovních endur podbízí jen několik málo konkurentů. Ač je to smutné, cena obou 1190 Adventures a především vlajkové lodi 1290 Super Adventure se vyšplhala do velmi vysokých hodnot. A právě proto je KTM 1050 Adventure možná nejsoudržnějším ze čtyř modelů Adventure.
BMW R 1250 GS 2019

BMW R 1250 GS je logickým pokračováním modelu R 1200 GS - logickým především proto, že od tak oblíbeného motocyklu nelze očekávat radikální změny. Design byl proto měněn opatrně a známé možnosti podvozku a elektroniky zůstaly zachovány. Nový název R 1250 GS však slibuje nový motor - a ten má opravdu něco do sebe! Výkon 136 k při 7750 ot/min a maximální točivý moment 143 newtonmetrů při 6250 ot/min jsou naprostá bomba! BMW tak renovovalo velké GS téměř dokonale: zůstává jasně rozpoznatelné, má o něco více elektroniky ve standardní výbavě, stále dlouhý seznam příplatků (které si zákazníci rádi zaškrtávají od A do Z) a nyní ještě lepší a suverénnější pohonnou jednotku - co víc si přát!
