KTM 1290 Super Adventure 2015
Model 1290 Super Adventure je právem prezentován společností KTM jako vlajková loď dobrodružství. Je vybaven sofistikovanou elektronikou a téměř vším, co byste mohli u velkého cestovního endura potřebovat, a podle očekávání se doporučuje na dlouhé cesty. Z jeho objemného vzhledu však hned nepoznáte, že Super Adventure je stejně jako jeho sestry 1190 neuvěřitelně zábavný stroj. Zejména v utažených zatáčkách je to neuvěřitelná zábava. Elektronika ovládá trakci, podvozek a řízení motoru tak nenápadně, že se můžete plně a především bezpečně soustředit na akceleraci. Na středních rovinkách výkon 160 k zajišťuje, že 1290 Super Adventure dokáže splnit i sportovní požadavky, a je tak z hlediska univerzálnosti jen těžko překonatelný.
BMW R 1200 GS 2016
GS je doma téměř všude - ale jen v omezené míře na závodní dráze. Je radost cítit sílu částečně vodou chlazeného boxerového dvouválce na výjezdu ze zatáčky - 125 koní se jen na papíře zdá mnohem slabších než 150 nebo dokonce 160 koní u konkurence. S točivým momentem 125 newtonmetrů je zrychlení odspodu i tak vynikající a GS s hmotností 238 kg připravené k jízdě nenese přes svůj objemný vzhled příliš mnoho špeku. Ve velmi ostrých zatáčkách se pozitivně projevuje i nízko položené těžiště - BMW R 1200 GS je velmi těžké rozlousknout! Dokonce i přední teleleverové odpružení, které potlačuje tendenci předního kola zapadat při brzdění, dokonale zapadá do celkového balení GS a jen mírně ubírá na jeho sportovním charakteru.
