Avantages et inconvénients en comparaison
Avantages et inconvénients en comparaison
Kawasaki Z1000 2009
Kawasaki a bien fait de repenser et de reconstruire la Z1000 de fond en comble. Elle a été dotée d'une âme sombre, dont les racines plongent dans le (dé)bon vieux temps, mais elle semble plus authentique et plus cohérente grâce à son développement autonome. Kawa a su se montrer à la hauteur de ses ambitions et des souhaits de ses clients. Dans l'ensemble, un produit audacieux pour des pilotes audacieux.
Yamaha MT-09 2016
La Yamaha MT-09 n'a pas eu besoin d'être réinventée pour la saison à venir - elle l'a déjà été extrêmement bien il y a à peine quatre ans. Au lieu de cela, les Japonais ont misé sur un réglage fin et l'ajout de gadgets pratiques, adaptés à l'époque, comme le contrôle de traction et le changement de vitesse automatique. La norme Euro4 a une fois de plus modifié la gestion du moteur qui, en mode standard, offre un développement de la puissance certes puissant, mais bien contrôlable. Le plus grand changement, reconnaissable au premier coup d'œil, est le design, à mon avis très réussi, avec l'avant plus agressif et l'arrière redessiné. Dans l'ensemble, il s'agit donc d'une naked bike encore plus élégante, qui a clairement été construite pour le plaisir de conduire une moto.
