Prós e contras em comparação
Prós e contras em comparação
KTM 690 Duke 2016

É inacreditável como a KTM desenvolveu o monocilíndrico sem sacrificar o desempenho. Pode ser considerado um golpe de génio o facto de, no âmbito da norma EURO4, a cultura de funcionamento do motor ter sido aumentada, aumentando ao mesmo tempo a potência. A curva de binário plana é responsável pela propulsão suave e potente. A partir das 4000 rotações, a Duke empurra com força e atinge as 8500 rotações. Mesmo a baixas rotações, o motor não gagueja nem engole, o que é uma vantagem na cidade. A maior força da Duke, para além da sua capacidade de condução, é a sua manobrabilidade, razão pela qual se pode dizer que é um brinquedo. Só quando estamos na pista de corridas e a atacar com força é que desejamos ter o "R" debaixo do rabo.
BMW F 900 R 2020

A BMW F 900 R oferece diversão em curva fácil de usar, estabilidade extremamente elevada, uma posição de condução ativa mas confortável e um motor suave mas também sem emoção. Quem gosta de velocidade e de curvas vai ficar satisfeito com ela. As possibilidades de configuração são quase infinitas, mas, claro, não são gratuitas.
