Honda X-ADV 2021

Honda X-ADV 2021

Honda dares - and hits the mark. The X-ADV is a sophisticated, practical and amazingly precise crossover two-wheeler. With the G-mode of the dual-clutch transmission DCT, the off-road capability is underlined even more. The X-ADV's true playground, however, is the country road, where it works excellently and presents an ingenious mixture of sportiness and comfort that is otherwise only known from big tourers and scooters. Many people don't know what to do with this "thing", but once you've ridden the X-ADV, you'll realise what it's capable of.

Engine with sufficient power

very good brakes

comfortable seating position

DCT dual clutch with G-mode

traction control

adjustable windshield

LED light

cool looks

smart key

12V power socket.

High price

storage compartment is only sufficient for a full-face helmet

running boards somewhat narrow

chain drive for scooter/adventure operation requires high maintenance

extroverted appearance is not everyone's cup of tea.

Ducati Scrambler Desert Sled 2017

Ducati Scrambler Desert Sled 2017

The Desert Sled is not made for tough off-road use, but for fun sessions on gravel roads and in light terrain. With its reinforced frame, large 19" front wheel and fully adjustable suspension elements, it takes into account the requirements of its new field of use. The seat height of 860 millimetres (840 millimetres with a lower seat) also suggests that off-road excursions are not completely absurd. The Ducati Scrambler Desert Sled is just the same, but without ignoring the spirit of lifestyle. Fortunately, the headlight grille of the new Scrambler is homologated, as are the high mudguards.

cool look

cultivated engine

robust appearance

good brakes

really suitable for off-road use

No handguards as standard

somewhat high seat for small riders
