Pros and Cons in comparison
Pros and Cons in comparison
KTM 1290 Super Adventure R 2022

A variante R da 1290 Super Adventure é uma das opções mais luxuosas para longas viagens que não terminam em estradas pavimentadas. Há sempre muita potência disponível e o visual de rali evoca imediatamente o desejo de viajar. A suspensão WP pode lidar com quase todas as superfícies imagináveis, mas tem de ser ajustada manualmente e também tem de prescindir do controlo de distância.

Para muitos, a nova Honda CRF1000L Africa Twin Adventure Sports é a verdadeira Africa Twin, que, com um tanque maior, maior viagem de suspensão e para-brisa mais alto, leva a longa jornada ainda mais a sério do que a Africa Twin normal já faz. O chassis funciona como uma maca, a posição do assento permite centenas de quilómetros de distância - de acordo com a Honda 525 com um depósito de combustível. No entanto, a agilidade e a manobrabilidade da Africa Twin normal sofrem. Com a aparência mais atraente da Adventure Sports, a Honda acertou novamente no alvo: não há atualmente nenhuma moto de aventura mais bonita.
