KTM 1290 Super Adventure S 2021
Dans l'ensemble, la KTM 1290 Super Adventure S, adaptée aux longs trajets, est faite pour les voyages à deux, le pilote n'ayant presque jamais à se demander où il va aller. Elle apprécie tout autant les tronçons d'autoroute, les passages rapides sur les routes de campagne ou les routes de col sinueuses dans les épingles les plus étroites que les chemins non goudronnés avec parfois des passages en gravier plus grossiers, où c'est avant tout le pilote ou sa routine qui décide jusqu'où il peut aller. C'est là que la maniabilité améliorée par rapport au modèle précédent, grâce au réservoir (et donc au centre de gravité) abaissé, marque des points. Le châssis électronique s'accommode parfaitement des surfaces changeantes d'un voyage et transmet toujours de la transparence, le moteur de la souveraineté dans toutes les situations. Ready to race, en somme - ou bien : prêt pour la course au long cours !
BMW R 1250 GS 2022
En 2022, la BMW R 1250 GS se présente toujours comme une moto très complète. Souveraine et bien équilibrée, elle convainc lors des sorties intensives. La moto marque des points grâce à son magnifique moteur, à son excellente ergonomie et à ses aides à la conduite adaptées à la pratique, y compris la formidable intégration d'applications. Mais en comparaison directe avec d'autres enduros de voyage de la ligue supérieure, elle montre entre-temps ses premières faiblesses au niveau de l'équipement et des composants installés. En revanche, les 136 ch du moteur boxer sont convaincants en toutes circonstances.
