Avantages et inconvénients en comparaison
Avantages et inconvénients en comparaison
BMW S 1000 R 2015

Sur la BMW S 1000 R, on remarque à la fois la parenté étroite avec la Superbike S 1000 RR et la volonté de doter la machine d'un niveau de confort élevé pour la route et le quotidien. Le moteur quatre cylindres de 1000 cm3 se met donc au travail de manière brutale, tout en restant bien contrôlable, et la position de conduite est par conséquent confortable et sportive. Le fait que la S 1000 R soit l'une des power naked bikes les plus abordables est surprenant et réjouissant, mais il ne faut pas pour autant mettre la main sur la liste des équipements spéciaux - car grâce aux nombreuses caractéristiques irrésistibles, elle sera certainement plus chère.
Triumph Speed Twin 1200 2021

Le mieux est l'ennemi du bien, ce proverbe se vérifie une fois de plus de manière impressionnante dans le cas de la nouvelle Triumph Speed Twin. Les Britanniques ont travaillé sur les points faibles de son prédécesseur et ont ainsi transformé cette beauté classique en une véritable machine de conduite qui n'a pas à rougir face aux nakedbikes modernes. Malheureusement, les pilotes de grande taille ne peuvent pas profiter de la petite 1200 aussi facilement que les pilotes de moins de 1,85 mètre. Quoi qu'il en soit, la Speed Twin est pour moi la moto Modern Classic parfaite - elle allie un look classique à une performance de conduite moderne, comme aucune autre moto sur le marché actuellement.
