Avantages et inconvénients en comparaison
Avantages et inconvénients en comparaison
Suzuki V-Strom 1000 2014
Dans le segment des grosses cylindrées, la Suzuki V-Strom 1000 occupe la position de l'offre avantageuse, sans pour autant devoir renoncer à quoi que ce soit - même un contrôle de traction et l'ABS sont fournis de série. D'excellents freins, un confort exceptionnel et un moteur bicylindre en V merveilleusement puissant sont des ingrédients qui devraient plaire à presque tout le monde. Le fait qu'elle ne joue pas dans la cour des grands avec ses 100 ch est compensé par le magnifique déploiement de puissance qui assure un climat détendu lors des longs voyages. Seule la protection contre le vent n'est pas optimale avec le pare-brise d'origine, il faudrait alors investir dans un pare-brise abordable et un peu plus grand.
KTM 1290 Super Adventure 2015
La 1290 Super Adventure est présentée par KTM, à juste titre, comme le fleuron de l'aventure. Bourrée d'électronique sophistiquée et de presque tout ce dont on peut avoir besoin dans une moto d'aventure de grande taille, elle est recommandée, comme on pouvait s'y attendre, pour les longs voyages. Ce que l'on ne voit pas tout de suite avec son apparence massive, c'est que la Super Adventure est, comme ses sœurs 1190, une machine incroyablement amusante. C'est surtout dans les épingles étroites qu'elle procure un plaisir incroyable. L'électronique règle la traction, le châssis et la gestion du moteur de manière si discrète que l'on peut se concentrer entièrement et surtout en toute sécurité sur l'accélération. Dans les lignes droites intermédiaires, la puissance de 160 ch permet à la 1290 Super Adventure de répondre à des exigences sportives et d'être ainsi très universelle.
