Avantages et inconvénients en comparaison
Avantages et inconvénients en comparaison
Kawasaki Z900 2021
La Kawasaki Z900 n'est peut-être plus tout à fait à la hauteur en ce qui concerne les caractéristiques électroniques modernes dépendant de l'inclinaison, mais elle est relativement bon marché et il ne faut surtout pas sous-estimer la communauté des fans du bon vieux quatre cylindres en ligne - la Z900 est l'une des possibilités les plus avantageuses de posséder un moteur aussi formidable d'une cylindrée d'à peine un litre dans une naked bike sportive ! Le poids plus élevé est perceptible, mais pas massivement gênant, car la maniabilité et la stabilité sont tout à fait correctes. En ce qui concerne l'électronique "dépassée", le plus dérangeant est l'absence d'assistant de changement de vitesse, qui n'est même pas disponible en option. Mais dans l'ensemble, la Z900 est une superbe moto naked avec un excellent rapport qualité-prix.
Suzuki GSX-S1000 2015
Certains pourraient s'étonner qu'après avoir attendu si longtemps, Suzuki n'ait pas lancé sur le marché la power naked bike ultime et sans compromis. Au lieu de cela, la Suzuki GSX-S 1000 semble presque trop sage avec ses 149 CV. Mais si on la conduit sur une piste de course, on se rend vite compte que le moteur est bien plus puissant dans la vie réelle et que le reste des performances du châssis et du système de freinage sont également remarquables. En outre, elle offre une bonne dose d'aptitude à l'usage quotidien et pratique - ce qui n'est pas un mauvais ingrédient lorsqu'on doit tout couvrir avec une seule moto, du quotidien à la piste de course.
