Prós e contras em comparação
Prós e contras em comparação
KTM 1090 Adventure 2018

A KTM 1090 Adventure é um grande passo da sua antecessora, a 1050 Adventure, em direção às suas irmãs maiores. O pacote eletrónico com modos de condução ajustáveis, controlo de tração e ABS mantém-se no nível já elevado, mas o motor tem agora 125 cv, cerca de um terço (!) mais do que a 1050. Mais importante ainda, agora pode acelerar livremente até mais de 10.000 rpm e, portanto, oferece uma faixa de rotação mais utilizável. Dificilmente encontrará uma moto mais equilibrada na classe das grandes enduros de turismo, ainda com preços razoáveis.
Suzuki V-Strom 1000 2018

Aquilo em que a Suzuki V-Strom 1000 já era muito boa antes, a nova V-Strom 1000 também é muito boa: uma moto bem equilibrada que não se esquiva a um estilo de condução desportivo com boa capacidade para longas distâncias. A isto juntam-se características modernas como o ABS e o Combined Brake System, que tornam a condução ainda mais segura e rápida. A Suzuki leva as críticas a sério, o para-brisas foi aumentado e, em linha com a tendência, a V-Strom 1000 está agora também disponível numa versão XT ligeiramente mais off-road com jantes de raios de arame, que não só aumentam a estabilidade como também o aspeto fresco - especialmente com a pintura amarela. Para além de todas estas vantagens, o preço baixo continua a ser o argumento decisivo para a Suzuki V-Strom 1000.
