Kawasaki Z650 2017
Dans la catégorie moyenne, la Kawasaki Z 650 est le tuyau pour les pilotes de petite taille. Sur ses dimensions compactes, les géants ne se sentiront probablement pas plus à l'aise. Des sentiments qui réchauffent le cœur se dégagent toutefois du moteur, qui enthousiasme par ses reprises très régulières. Du côté du châssis, on a opté pour une configuration ferme typique de Kawasaki, qui trouve un super compromis au quotidien. L'écran négatif est très lisible et rappelle celui de la précédente ER-6n - très joli !
Triumph Street Triple S 2018
Avec sa réactivité, sa sonorité et sa position de conduite, la Street Triple S offre une expérience de conduite à la fois confortable et sportive. La nakedbike se conduit de manière très précise et agile et offre beaucoup de confort, même lors de longues sorties, au cours desquelles on apprécie également le grand réservoir de 17,4 litres. La commande électronique du papillon des gaz assure une réponse précise et permet de régler différents modes de conduite. Nous avons également trouvé positives les vibrations comparativement très faibles pour un triple et la géométrie agréable du véhicule. Le châssis est un peu mou, comparé aux autres motos du test et à ses deux frères et sœurs R et RS - en revanche, nous avons été convaincus par le son génial et rauque du trois cylindres, qui a en tout cas fait battre notre cœur plus fort !
