Honda CRF1100L Africa Twin 2020

Pro mě je Africa Twin cestovní enduro, jak má cestovní enduro být. To platilo už u předchozího modelu a nezměnilo se to ani s nárůstem objemu a výkonu. Ten totiž zůstal na zvládnutelných 102 koních a Hondě se dokonce podařilo shodit několik kilogramů oproti modelu CRF1000L. Zůstala tedy univerzální a fungovala stejně dobře na dálnici jako v terénu. Podvozek tlumí téměř všechny nerovnosti, motor zůstává suverénní za každé situace, ergonomie a komfort sezení jsou příkladné. Motocykl pro všechny dny i pro velký výlet - ať už je to kdekoli.
BMW R 1200 GS 2017

Již více než 35 let BMW neustále rozšiřuje řadu boxerů a neustále pracuje na vývoji modelu GS. Kromě aktualizace motoru EURO4 s novým katalyzátorem a mapováním je nyní k dispozici ještě více funkcí, jako je například Dynamic ESA Next Generation s automatickou kompenzací jízdní polohy, která dále zlepšuje stabilitu a komfort jezdce. Verze Exclusive s decentním barevným provedením je určena pro přátele uhlazeného a decentního vzhledu a na rozdíl od honosnější varianty Rallye je určena spíše na silnici. Řada prvků je za příplatek, ale zákazníkům GS to obvykle nevadí - 90 % z nich si objednává plnou výbavu.
