Prós e contras em comparação
BMW F 850 GS 2018

Pode não se ver à primeira vista no novo BMW F 850 GS, mas é de facto um design completamente novo. Tanto o chassis em aço como a transmissão foram alterados, o motor foi aumentado para 853 cilindradas e concebido para ser ainda mais potente com o desvio de 90 graus da cambota. Como resultado, o novo F 850 GS apresenta-se mais soberano do que entusiasmado e é convincente tanto em estrada como fora de estrada. A particularidade da BMW é a possibilidade de a adaptar exatamente às suas necessidades pessoais graças à extensa gama de acessórios - na verdade, não há nenhuma caraterística atualmente disponível que não possa ser colocada na sua F 850 GS. No entanto, isto também faz aumentar o preço.
KTM 790 Adventure 2019

Na minha opinião, a KTM é a mais desportiva de todas as enduros de turismo de gama média. Se está à procura de uma máquina de turismo que seja brutalmente ágil em estrada e fora de estrada, vai encontrá-la aqui. Ao mesmo tempo, porém, o chassis e o motor oferecem conforto e boas maneiras suficientes para evitar que o piloto enlouqueça mesmo em etapas de ligação mais longas.
