Prós e contras em comparação
Prós e contras em comparação
BMW S 1000 R 2021

É realmente impressionante como a BMW consegue sempre tornar as boas motas ainda melhores. A desportiva S 1000 R com pacote M e jantes de carbono parece um pouco ameaçadora à primeira vista. Mas mesmo em 2021, a S 1000 R oferece alta tecnologia e desempenho numa dosagem grandiosa e utilizável. A máquina conduz com precisão, maneja bem, mas não é instável. O motor dispara para fora das curvas, mas não sobrecarrega. Uma mota muito rápida!
Kawasaki Z900 2018

No disputadíssimo segmento das motos naked, a Z900 joga mesmo na frente. Acima de tudo, o seu motor é absolutamente fantástico, funciona de forma incrivelmente sedosa e oferece uma potência rica em todas as rotações - como convém a um quatro cilindros japonês. O seu aspeto desportivo e agressivo corresponde a isto. Não necessita de sinos e assobios electrónicos, mas ainda assim transmite muita confiança quando segue as curvas, trava e acelera. O assento baixo é especialmente benéfico para os condutores mais pequenos, mas os condutores mais altos podem sentir falta de um ângulo de joelho mais plano em longas distâncias. O baixo peso e a compacidade tornam a Z900 particularmente ágil e fácil de manusear. Um canhão desportivo que também é extremamente apelativo em termos de preço
