Avantages et inconvénients en comparaison
Honda CRF1100L Africa Twin 2020
L'Africa Twin est pour moi une moto d'aventure comme une moto d'aventure doit l'être. C'était déjà le cas pour le modèle précédent et cela n'a pas changé avec l'augmentation de la cylindrée et de la puissance. D'une part, parce que la puissance de 102 ch est restée raisonnable et que Honda a même réussi à perdre quelques kilos par rapport à la CRF1000L. Il lui restait donc la polyvalence, elle fonctionne aussi bien sur l'autoroute qu'en off-road. Le châssis absorbe presque toutes les irrégularités, le moteur reste souverain dans toutes les situations, l'ergonomie et le confort d'assise sont exemplaires. Une moto pour tous les jours, mais aussi pour les grands voyages - quelle que soit la destination.
KTM 790 Adventure 2023
La KTM 790 Adventure est toujours l'une des motos de voyage de classe moyenne les plus sportives - si vous cherchez une moto de tourisme qui maîtrise brutalement la route et le off-road, vous trouverez votre bonheur ici. Mais en même temps, le châssis et le moteur offrent suffisamment de confort et de bonnes manières pour que le pilote ne devienne pas fou, même sur les longues étapes de liaison. Le moteur est merveilleusement puissant pour cette catégorie, la consommation est étonnamment basse et les aides à la conduite sont même d'un niveau supérieur à la normale. L'ergonomie est tout à fait correcte sur la route, l'ergonomie offroad devrait même être un peu moins radicale. Dans l'ensemble, la 790 Adventure offre un bon rapport qualité/prix et de bonnes performances.
