Avantages et inconvénients en comparaison
KTM 1290 Super Duke GT 2020

A-t-on besoin de 175 ch ou même d'un launch control dans une moto de tourisme ? Bien sûr que non. Est-ce que c'est amusant ? Définitivement ! Même si la Super Duke GT ne peut pas cacher ses gènes et que, malgré son poids à sec de 209 kg, elle est incontestablement une Duke en ce qui concerne l'agilité et l'envie de prendre des virages, elle permet néanmoins de cruiser en toute décontraction, à condition bien sûr d'avoir une certaine "maturité" avec de telles données de puissance. Car contrairement à la Super Duke R ou à une 890 Duke R, elle ne me suggère pas constamment le couteau entre les limites, mais plutôt un sentiment de souveraineté, selon la devise "je peux, mais je ne dois pas". Et tout cela avec un équipement de série somptueux ou comme on est en droit de l'attendre d'une moto à 22 499 euros en Autriche ou 19 053 euros en Allemagne.
KTM 1050 Adventure 2015

La KTM 1050 Adventure reprend 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.
