Pros and Cons in comparison
Pros and Cons in comparison
KTM 790 Adventure 2020

Na minha opinião, a KTM é a mais desportiva de todas as enduros de turismo de gama média. Se está à procura de uma máquina de turismo que seja brutalmente ágil em estrada e fora de estrada, vai encontrá-la aqui. Ao mesmo tempo, porém, o chassis e o motor oferecem conforto e boas maneiras suficientes para evitar que o piloto enlouqueça mesmo em etapas de ligação mais longas.
BMW F 800 GS 2011

Totalmente equipada com o equipamento especial da Touratech, a BMW tinha um aspeto muito imponente e dava a impressão de ser uma verdadeira mota de aventureiro masculina. A grelha do farol, a proteção do motor, os apoios para os pés mais largos e aderentes e muito mais enganaram muitas testemunhas oculares sobre a parceria do mesmo sexo no assento confortável e respirável.
