Avantages et inconvénients en comparaison
Avantages et inconvénients en comparaison
KTM 1050 Adventure 2016
La KTM 1050 Adventure reprend à mon avis là où les aventures 990 s'étaient arrêtées il y a quelques années : Une puissance d'environ 100 ch, une maniabilité ludique et autant ou aussi peu d'électronique que l'état de l'art actuel. Le moteur est en effet tout sauf lent, l'ABS et le contrôle de traction règlent de manière sûre et discrète et la performance de conduite est extrêmement orientée vers le plaisir, notamment en raison des pneus relativement étroits. Et tout cela à un prix qui, dans la ligue des grands enduros de voyage, n'est battu que par quelques concurrents. Aussi triste que cela puisse paraître, les deux aventures 1190 et surtout le fleuron 1290 Super Adventure ont atteint des sommets en matière de prix. C'est pourquoi la KTM 1050 Adventure est peut-être même le modèle le plus cohérent des quatre Adventure.
Honda CRF1000L Africa Twin 2015
La nouvelle Africa Twin est le digne successeur d'une légende. Elle semble souveraine, indestructible et fiable. Elle éveille le goût de l'aventure chez son pilote et ne va certainement pas vivre une existence indigne dans le garage de son propriétaire. Elle est positionnée et configurée exactement comme il faut et peut faire tout ce qu'une Africa Twin doit faire. Surprise : les caractéristiques high-tech sont également bonnes en off-road
