Prós e contras em comparação
Prós e contras em comparação
Ducati Monster 1200 S 2016
A Ducati regressa à consistência e realça mais o carácter clássico da Monster, enquanto o design foi aperfeiçoado em pequenos passos: Cauda mais curta, distância entre eixos mais curta, depósito mais pequeno. O motor tornou-se mais limpo e mais potente, ao mesmo tempo que a eletrónica se tornou mais completa. Para além do ABS e do TC, a Monster dispõe também de controlo de rodas, e a versão S tem até ABS em curva. A alavanca de mudanças rápida de série sublinha o carácter desportivo da Monster, que poderia ser mais agressiva na entrega de potência. Por outro lado, estes 150 cv podem ser conduzidos por um leque muito alargado de clientes.
KTM 1290 Super Duke R 2017
A KTM é e continua a ser a moto naked mais brutal do mercado. A posição de assento vertical combinada com a potência selvagem da V2 fazem-na parecer mais brutal do que é no papel. Foi melhorada precisamente nos seus pontos mais fracos. O motor funciona agora de forma mais suave, o assistente de mudança de velocidades proporciona calma na fase de aceleração e o chassis foi melhorado. Continua a gostar mais da perseguição selvagem do que da alta velocidade em curva em curvas longas.
