Prós e contras em comparação
Prós e contras em comparação
Yamaha MT-09 SP 2022

A divertida moto MT-09 está no seu melhor na versão SP! O motor de três cilindros, extremamente divertido e animado, parece ter mais do que apenas 119 cv graças ao binário abundante. Acrescente a isso uma maneabilidade fantástica, semelhante à de uma moto, e travões fenomenais e finamente controláveis. A posição de condução vertical, virada para a retaguarda, não retira tanta sensação de roda dianteira à MT-09 SP, uma vez que o chassis de alta qualidade proporciona um feedback limpo da estrada e percorre todos os raios com estabilidade. Infelizmente, como é típico da Yamaha, a clareza do ecrã TFT e o conceito de funcionamento da eletrónica exuberante deixam muito a desejar. O conforto do assento e do passageiro também poderia ser melhor. De resto, no entanto, a MT-09 SP é a moto (quase) perfeita para uma condução divertida.
Kawasaki Z900 RS 2021

Uma mota de beleza intemporal, a Z 900 RS. O seu coração, o potente e suave motor de quatro cilindros, garante um prazer absoluto de condução.
