Yamaha Tracer 900 2018

L'arme sportive polyvalente de Yamaha a encore été améliorée. Elle est la moto parfaite pour tous ceux qui trouvent la MT-09 nue trop spartiate pour une conduite sportive sur route. Grâce au bras oscillant plus long et à l'amélioration de l'aérodynamisme, le millésime 2018 élimine aussi en grande partie les problèmes de haute vitesse auxquels son prédécesseur était confronté. La variante haut de gamme, la Tracer 900 GT, en rajoute une couche avec des caractéristiques de confort exceptionnelles.
Yamaha MT-09 SP 2018

La Yamaha MT-09 SP est la version améliorée d'une moto naked de classe moyenne déjà très bonne. Avec de meilleurs composants de suspension Öhlins et Kayaba, une peinture plus jolie et un prix raisonnablement plus élevé, la version SP est clairement le choix le plus sportif de la gamme Yamaha MT-09. L'attaque brutale du moteur ne permet certes pas de rouler tranquillement avec la MT-09 SP, mais ce n'est pas nécessaire sur la "Special" - le plaisir est clairement au premier plan ! La Yamaha MT-09 EVO avec suspension Wilbers est une alternative intéressante, car elle est très discrète sans "peinture de guerre". Mais malheureusement seulement pour la Suisse...
