Pros and Cons in comparison
Pros and Cons in comparison
Suzuki GSX-R 1000 2009
Malgré une conduite précise et équilibrée et un déploiement de puissance maîtrisé, la GSX-R 1000 reste réservée aux pilotes expérimentés. Suzuki sait qu'un millier doit rester un millier et s'y tient strictement. Espérons qu'elle pourra le faire encore longtemps.
Ducati Panigale V2 2020
La Panigale V2 est pour nous la supersportive de campagne par excellence. Des systèmes d'assistance électroniques sophistiqués qui ne laissent rien à désirer, un moteur Ducati Superquadro bicylindre de 955 cm³ qui, avec ses 155 ch, génère plus que suffisamment de puissance pour la route, une position de conduite agréable et une grande maniabilité. Tout cela caractérise la Panigale V2 et c'est pour cette raison qu'elle est pour nous, à l'heure actuelle, "la" supersportive de campagne, mais elle fait aussi bonne figure sur les pistes de course. La Panigale V2 devrait surtout plaire aux pilotes pour qui 200 ch est une fusée de trop et à tous ceux qui sont tombés sous le charme de cette œuvre d'art sur deux roues.
