KTM 390 Duke 2017

É realmente incrível a quantidade de diversão que se pode ter com menos de 50 cv. A KTM 390 Duke é um pequeno canhão de diversão que não vai encontrar em mais lado nenhum. A sua configuração desportiva com a posição de assento orientada para a roda dianteira faz dela um verdadeiro predador de curvas - não precisa de mais nada na engrenagem angular. O aspeto elegante e o ecrã TFT conferem-lhe uma aparência de alta classe.
Honda CB500F 2019

Em resumo, a nova CB500F ainda faz jus ao lema "lúdico e sem esforço". Graças a modificações na área de admissão e escape, o motor agora oferece 4% a mais na faixa de rotação entre 3.000 e 7.000 rotações, o que deve ser positivamente percetível na operação diária menos rápida, mas ainda mais importante. As outras inovações, como a embraiagem anti-salto, o ecrã LCD com indicador de mudança e o guiador orgulhoso, facilitam ainda mais a vida dos principiantes em duas rodas. Na minha opinião, não há necessidade de controlo de tração nas máquinas A2. Pelo contrário, acho que não faz mal aprender a usar a mão direita no início. A CB500F é de fato ideal para precisamente este começo. E pilotos experientes também poderiam ficar verdadeiramente emocionados com sua suavidade. Especialmente quando a estrada desce.
