La KTM 1190 Adventure est un talent universel absolu, aucune exigence qu'elle ne remplisse pas : Elle concilie sport, voyage, cols et off-road. Il n'y a guère d'autres motos "à tout faire" qui permettent d'aller aussi vite - même sur les pistes de course, la 1190 Adventure fait bonne figure avec ses 150 CV. Particulièrement imbattable sur les routes de montagne étroites, elle est également un compagnon agréable pour les trajets quotidiens vers le travail. Elle est également accompagnée d'un pack électronique complet avec des modes de puissance réglables, un contrôle de traction et même un ABS en cas d'inclinaison.
Kawasaki Versys 1000 2015
La nouvelle Kawasaki Versys 1000 n'est pas un modèle entièrement nouveau - même si son design en donne l'impression. Son look a été très habilement adapté à la ligne agressive actuelle de Kawasaki, avec deux phares pointus et de nombreuses arêtes à l'avant. Sur le plan technique en revanche, elle a été améliorée avec précaution - mais de manière tout à fait judicieuse. Deux chevaux supplémentaires font passer la puissance à 120 ch, qui se laissent parfaitement conduire grâce à la magnifique caractéristique du quatre cylindres en ligne. Le châssis correspond aux exigences sportives d'une Kawasaki, l'ergonomie et la position de conduite confortable permettent néanmoins de voyager loin - comme le prévoit le cahier des charges d'une grande enduro. Avec des accessoires judicieux comme un set de valises, un top-case, des poignées chauffantes et des phares supplémentaires, la Versys 1000 se transforme en une touriste sérieuse sur de longues distances - le prix de base relativement bas rend ces gadgets tout à fait abordables.
