Avantages et inconvénients en comparaison
Suzuki V-Strom 1000 2017

Ce que la Suzuki V-Strom 1000 faisait déjà très bien auparavant, la nouvelle V-Strom 1000 et la V-Strom 1000XT le font aussi très bien : une moto équilibrée qui, tout en étant bien adaptée aux longs trajets, n'hésite pas à adopter une conduite sportive. À cela s'ajoutent désormais des caractéristiques ultramodernes comme l'ABS en position inclinée et le Combined Brake System, qui rendent la conduite encore plus sûre et plus rapide. Les critiques sont prises au sérieux chez Suzuki, le pare-brise a été agrandi et, conformément à la tendance, une version XT un peu plus tout-terrain de la V-Strom 1000 est désormais disponible, avec des roues à rayons métalliques qui augmentent non seulement la stabilité mais aussi l'aspect cool - surtout avec les jantes dorées de la peinture jaune. Outre tous ces avantages, le prix avantageux reste toujours le killer argument absolu pour la Suzuki V-Strom 1000 / XT.
Honda CRF1000L Africa Twin 2016

La légende est de retour, affirmait Honda avec force - mais la mission est réussie au plus haut point, l'Africa Twin, au nom plutôt encombrant de CRF1000L Africa Twin, est une enduro très maniable et d'une excellente maniabilité, qui fonctionne bien sur tous les terrains. Même sur la terre et les single trails, où une maniabilité simple est évidemment très importante. Avec 95 ch, il lui manque certes 65 ch par rapport à l'élite, mais pour une maniabilité aussi équilibrée, il n'en faut pas plus. La CRF1000L Africa Twin est même sans concurrence sur un point : elle peut être commandée avec une boîte de vitesses à double embrayage DCT (Dual Clutch Transmission).
