KTM 690 Duke 2018

Considerando o ponto de partida da família KTM Duke, a 690 Duke é um incrível passo em frente. O motor é extremamente refinado e, ao mesmo tempo, robusto para um monocilíndrico de rua. Apesar de toda a tecnologia a bordo, continua a ser uma moto muito leve e quase pode ser considerada um brinquedo (no bom sentido). Só a sua posição de assento divide as opiniões, porque com a Duke 4 em 2012, as antigas supermotos tornaram-se numa moto nua quase domesticada com uma posição de assento orientada para a roda dianteira. A vantagem: a vida quotidiana e as longas viagens não devem ser um problema na atual Duke.

Mesmo a primeira série MT-07 era uma base incrivelmente boa para a condução desportiva em motos naked. Com o modelo de 2018, a Yamaha conseguiu finalmente trazer todo o potencial do motor CP2 para a estrada. Palavra-chave: chassis. Graças a intervenções simples, os componentes da suspensão têm agora o carácter desportivo que há muito desejávamos. O visual renovado também faz com que pareçam muito mais crescidos. Apenas os indicadores e as mudanças parecem um pouco desactualizados - mas aqui pode ver porque é que a MT-07 é oferecida a um preço tão competitivo!
