Ducati Scrambler Desert Sled 2017

O Desert Sled pode não ter sido concebido para uma utilização dura fora de estrada, mas está bem equipado para festas divertidas em estradas de gravilha e em terrenos ligeiros. Com o modo de condução adicional (o ABS pode ser desligado na roda traseira), a grande roda dianteira de 19 polegadas e os elementos de suspensão totalmente ajustáveis, cumpre certamente estes requisitos. A altura do assento de 860 também sugere que os passeios off-road não são completamente absurdos. Presumivelmente, no entanto, é este visual de cortar a respiração do Desert Sled que despertará o interesse dos fãs do retro.
Yamaha XSR900 2016

A Yamaha XSR900 é uma verdadeira ilusão de ótica clássica — com o seu farol redondo, o depósito angular e a luz traseira sobreposto, passa claramente por uma moto retro. No entanto, não é por acaso que o desempenho em estrada lembra a potente moto naked de gama média Yamaha MT-09, pois esta é a base extremamente desportiva da XSR900. O motor é, portanto, impressionante e os travões, como seria de esperar, atuam com grande agressividade. No que diz respeito à suspensão, felizmente os técnicos não exageraram; a XSR900 oferece conforto suficiente e a posição de condução ereta é mais confortável do que o motor potente poderia levar a esperar. No entanto, no grupo das motos retro, a XSR900 continua a ser, no geral, um dos modelos mais desportivos.
