Pros and Cons in comparison
Pros and Cons in comparison
Suzuki V-Strom 650 2016
Comme la Kawasaki Versys, la petite V-Strom a un peu vieilli. La 1000 est tellement réussie et facile à conduire qu'il faudrait envisager de prendre tout de suite la "grande". Mais en matière de polyvalence, la 650 n'a rien à envier à la grande V-Strom, et ce pour un prix nettement plus avantageux. Il n'y a que sur les pistes de course que nous ne l'emmènerions plus. Et bien sûr, elle a plus de mal à supporter une charge élevée qu'une moto de plus de 100 chevaux.

Lors de son lancement, la Versys 650 était un concept moderne et rafraîchissant qui, grâce à un moteur bicylindre en ligne poussif, combinait un grand nombre de plaisirs avec une utilité quotidienne élevée et un large éventail d'utilisations. Entre-temps, elle a quelques années au compteur et, après une mise à jour esthétique très réussie, elle méritait aussi une révision technique. Alors que le réservoir ne devrait pas rétrécir, une hauteur de selle plus basse serait souhaitable.
