Avantages et inconvénients en comparaison
Avantages et inconvénients en comparaison
Kawasaki Z900 2020
En termes de rapport qualité-prix, la Kawasaki Z900 est actuellement difficile à battre. Avec son moteur parfaitement réglé, ses composants de châssis de haute qualité et l'électronique ajoutée pour 2020, cette naked bike offre tout ce que les conducteurs sportifs recherchent. Il n'y a rien à redire, même si l'option Quickshifter aurait été un plus appréciable. En dehors de cela : un grand coup, Kawasaki !
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.
