Kawasaki Z1000 2014

La Kawasaki Z1000 (2014) est une déclaration contre la tendance électronique de son époque - et c'est précisément ce qui la rend particulière aujourd'hui. Son quatre cylindres au caractère bien trempé, sa mécanique directe et sa focalisation sans compromis sur l'essentiel répondent aux attentes d'une époque où de nombreuses motos sont devenues des ordinateurs roulants. Oui, elle renonce aux systèmes avancés d'aide au pilote et à une protection parfaite contre le vent. Mais elle offre en contrepartie une authentique expérience de conduite de nakedbike, associée à la fiabilité japonaise et à des coûts d'entretien raisonnables. La Z1000 n'est pas une machine pour les drogués de la fiche technique ou les fans d'électronique - c'est une moto pour ceux qui veulent encore décider eux-mêmes de leur conduite. Une moto honnête avec du caractère, qui continue à enthousiasmer même après des années et qui fait plus que remplir son rôle d'antithèse émotionnelle de la modernité Digital.
