Suzuki V-Strom 1000 2017
Même si Suzuki n'a peut-être pas mis autant d'efforts dans le développement de la V-Strom que la concurrence dans les enduros de voyage, la Suzuki peut utiliser cet état de fait à son avantage. Dans un monde où les packs électroniques sont nombreux, elle se présente encore de manière très puriste dans l'année-modèle 2019, seul l'ABS en virage laisse entrevoir une innovation. De nombreux clients souhaitent une moto simple et c'est précisément à ce groupe cible que s'adresse la V-Strom 1000. Son V2 robuste dégage un caractère sans fin et est un compagnon à l'épreuve des balles grâce à des années d'essais. En combinaison avec le châssis puissant et la position assise détendue, on obtient avec la Suzuki V-Strom 1000 une moto d'aventure à la conduite sportive qui s'oppose à la numérisation des motos dans le monde actuel.
KTM 1050 Adventure 2016
La KTM 1050 Adventure reprend à mon avis là où les aventures 990 s'étaient arrêtées il y a quelques années : Une puissance d'environ 100 ch, une maniabilité ludique et autant ou aussi peu d'électronique que l'état de l'art actuel. Le moteur est en effet tout sauf lent, l'ABS et le contrôle de traction règlent de manière sûre et discrète et la performance de conduite est extrêmement orientée vers le plaisir, notamment en raison des pneus relativement étroits. Et tout cela à un prix qui, dans la ligue des grands enduros de voyage, n'est battu que par quelques concurrents. Aussi triste que cela puisse paraître, les deux aventures 1190 et surtout le fleuron 1290 Super Adventure ont atteint des sommets en matière de prix. C'est pourquoi la KTM 1050 Adventure est peut-être même le modèle le plus cohérent des quatre Adventure.
