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

A BMW S 1000 XR oferece uma agradável moto de turismo com base numa moto super desportiva. Parece um compromisso - mas é um desenvolvimento perfeito. A mota é prática e madura. A proteção contra o vento e as intempéries é muito boa, a integração a partir do telemóvel é bem testada e intuitiva e o motor é simplesmente sempre um prazer de conduzir. O chassis adapta-se bem às condições de carga, mas nunca se torna sensível e é realmente confortável. O conforto do assento é bom, mas o ângulo dos joelhos torna-se um pouco agudo em viagens longas. No entanto, esta é uma excelente moto para quem gosta de andar desportivamente, mas também para quem gosta de ir longe.
Kawasaki Ninja 1000SX 2020

Para além disso, o preço é muito bom (pelo menos na Áustria)!
