BMW R 1250 GS 2020

La BMW R 1250 GS est l'évolution logique de la R 1200 GS - logique surtout parce qu'on ne peut pas s'attendre à ce qu'une moto aussi populaire soit radicalement modifiée. En conséquence, le design est modifié avec précaution et les options connues sont conservées pour le châssis et l'électronique. Le nouveau nom R 1250 GS promet cependant un nouveau moteur - et il a effectivement de quoi faire ! 136 ch à 7750 tours et pas moins de 143 newtons-mètres de couple maximal à 6250 tours, c'est une véritable bombe ! BMW rénove ainsi presque parfaitement la grande GS : elle reste clairement identifiable, dispose d'un peu plus d'électronique de série, d'une liste de prix supplémentaires toujours aussi longue (que la clientèle aime cocher de A à Z) et d'un moteur encore plus performant et souverain - que peut-on demander de plus ?
Triumph Tiger 800 XCA 2019

La meilleure Tiger 800 qui ait jamais existé - car si la nouvelle Tiger 800 XCa peut se targuer d'un mode Offroad Pro spécial en off-road et d'une magnifique position debout, elle ne fait pas non plus de faux pas sur les routes pavées : une position de conduite magnifique, la même maniabilité que la Tiger 800 XRt, plus axée sur la route, grâce à un guidon plus large, et même plus d'angle d'inclinaison maximum grâce aux débattements de suspension plus longs. Malgré de sérieuses capacités off-road et une conduite sportive, il n'est pas nécessaire de renoncer au confort, l'écran TFT couleur, le pare-brise réglable en hauteur, les poignées et la selle chauffantes ainsi que l'éclairage entièrement LED ne sont pas encore disponibles dans la catégorie moyenne des motos d'aventure chez d'autres constructeurs, même contre un supplément de prix, alors qu'ils sont standard chez le modèle haut de gamme de Triumph.
