Prós e contras em comparação
Prós e contras em comparação
Yamaha MT-07 2020

A MT-07 é uma máquina maravilhosa e divertida, extremamente desportiva de conduzir. Os travões são potentes e o motor é atualmente, de longe, o mais ágil desta classe - e talvez mesmo acima. O manuseamento leve encaixa na perfeição e o chassis faz o compromisso compreensível entre conforto e desportivismo - lembrando-nos que a MT-07 acessível também deve ter muito para oferecer aos principiantes. Apenas o design com faróis de halogéneo e forquilhas convencionais é um pouco antiquado.
Kawasaki Z650 2017

A Kawasaki Z 650 é a ponta da classe média para os pequenos condutores masculinos e femininos. Com as suas dimensões compactas, provavelmente não se sentirá confortável como um gigante. No entanto, as sensações reconfortantes vêm do motor, que se delicia com uma tração muito suave. Do lado do chassis, foi escolhida uma configuração apertada típica da Kawasaki, que encontra um ótimo compromisso na utilização diária. O ecrã negativo é muito fácil de ler e faz lembrar a sua antecessora, a ER-6n - muito bonito!
