Prós e contras em comparação
Prós e contras em comparação
KTM 1290 Super Duke R 2019
A KTM é e continua a ser a moto naked mais brutal do mercado. A posição de condução vertical em combinação com a potência selvagem da V2 fazem-na parecer mais brutal do que é no papel. Foi melhorada precisamente nos seus maiores pontos fracos. O motor funciona agora mais suavemente, a alavanca de mudanças rápida proporciona calma na fase de aceleração e o quadro foi melhorado. Continua a gostar mais da perseguição selvagem do que das velocidades elevadas em curvas longas.
Kawasaki Z900 2021
A Kawasaki Z900 pode não estar à altura das características electrónicas modernas e dependentes do ângulo de inclinação, mas é relativamente barata e não se deve subestimar a base de fãs do bom e velho motor de quatro cilindros em linha - a Z900 é uma das formas mais baratas de ter um motor tão bom com pouco menos de um litro de cilindrada numa naked desportiva! O peso mais elevado é percetível, mas não é muito incómodo, porque o comportamento e a estabilidade são bastante bons. Em termos de eletrónica "ultrapassada", o mais irritante é a falta do assistente de mudanças, que nem sequer está disponível como opção. No entanto, no geral, a Z900 é uma excelente naked bike com uma óptima relação preço/desempenho.
