Technical Specifications KTM 1090 Adventure 2017 compared to KTM 890 SMT 2023
Pros and Cons in comparison
Pros and Cons in comparison
KTM 1090 Adventure 2017
La KTM 1090 Adventure est un grand pas en avant par rapport à son prédécesseur, la 1050 Adventure, en direction de ses grandes sœurs. Le package électronique avec les Riding Modes réglables, le contrôle de traction et l'ABS reste certes à un niveau déjà élevé, mais le moteur développe désormais 125 ch, soit environ un tiers ( !) de plus que la 1050. Ce qui est presque plus important, c'est qu'il peut désormais tirer librement jusqu'à plus de 10 000 tours et offre ainsi une plage de régime plus exploitable. Il est difficile de trouver une moto plus équilibrée dans la catégorie des grandes enduros de voyage encore à peu près abordables.
KTM 890 SMT 2023
Ceux qui pensaient que la nouvelle 8980 SMT jouerait un rôle secondaire inutile entre les modèles 890 Adventure et 890 Duke se sont probablement trompés. Rarement une moto n'a autant réussi à faire ce qu'elle suggère de l'extérieur avec son look. La 890 SMT veut donc être conduite de manière sportive - et elle le fait particulièrement bien. Toutefois, le carénage, la selle bien rembourrée et la position de conduite droite permettent de parcourir de longues distances. Le freinage est efficace et la maniabilité est extrêmement agile, même dans les épingles les plus serrées. La devise de la 890 SMT est clairement "voyager ET rouler" !
