KTM 1290 Super Adventure 2015
La 1290 Super Adventure est présentée par KTM, à juste titre, comme le fleuron de l'aventure. Bourrée d'électronique sophistiquée et de presque tout ce dont on peut avoir besoin dans une moto d'aventure de grande taille, elle est recommandée, comme on pouvait s'y attendre, pour les longs voyages. Ce que l'on ne voit pas tout de suite avec son apparence massive, c'est que la Super Adventure est, comme ses sœurs 1190, une machine incroyablement amusante. C'est surtout dans les épingles étroites qu'elle procure un plaisir incroyable. L'électronique règle la traction, le châssis et la gestion du moteur de manière si discrète que l'on peut se concentrer entièrement et surtout en toute sécurité sur l'accélération. Dans les lignes droites intermédiaires, la puissance de 160 ch permet à la 1290 Super Adventure de répondre à des exigences sportives et d'être ainsi très universelle.

La KTM est et reste la nakedbike la plus brutale du marché. La position d'assise droite combinée à la puissance sauvage du V2 la font paraître plus brutale qu'elle ne l'est sur le papier. Elle a été améliorée avec précision sur ses principaux points faibles. Le moteur tourne désormais plus doucement, l'assistant de changement de vitesse apporte du calme lors des phases d'accélération et le châssis a été amélioré. Elle aime toujours autant la course effrénée que la vitesse élevée dans les longs virages.
