Prós e contras em comparação
Prós e contras em comparação
Yamaha XSR900 2018

A Yamaha XSR900 é uma ilusão de ótica clássica - com o seu farol redondo, depósito angular e farolim traseiro acoplado, passa claramente por uma moto retro. Mas não é por acaso que o desempenho faz lembrar a potente naked de gama média Yamaha MT-09, que é a base extremamente desportiva da XSR900. Assim, o motor é uma explosão e os travões são apropriadamente venenosos. Felizmente, os engenheiros não exageraram com o chassis, a XSR900 oferece conforto suficiente e a posição de condução vertical é mais confortável do que o potente motor levaria a esperar. Em suma, a XSR900 é um dos modelos mais desportivos entre as motos retro.
Ducati Monster SP 2023

A versão SP é claramente a mais cara, mas também claramente a melhor Ducati Monster. Tudo se encaixa perfeitamente, porque é tipicamente desportiva da Ducati. A suspensão Öhlins totalmente ajustável (incluindo a forquilha em ouro sueco!) cumpre perfeitamente o seu objetivo, o sistema de travagem Brembo Stylema agarra com veemência mas não de forma desagradável e a posição do assento, com uma inclinação ligeiramente mais para a frente, é desportiva mas ainda assim confortável. Até o motor se enquadra muito bem no conceito de moto naked de gama média muito desportiva - quer ser acelerado e fornece a maior potência na parte superior. Se está à procura de um defeito na Monster SP, é provavelmente a trepidação do V2 a baixas rotações, mas os verdadeiros fãs do motor V2 de 90° não ficarão ofendidos com isso. O preço também não é um problema, uma vez que os italianos pagam um preço bastante elevado pelo desempenho da versão SP.
