BMW R 1250 GS 2020
A BMW R 1250 GS é o desenvolvimento lógico da R 1200 GS - lógico sobretudo porque não se deve esperar que uma moto tão popular seja radicalmente alterada. Assim, o design foi alterado com cautela, e as opções familiares para o chassis e eletrónica foram mantidas. O novo nome R 1250 GS, no entanto, promete um novo motor - e é realmente algo! 136 cv às 7750 rpm e uns impressionantes 143 Newton metros de binário máximo às 6250 rpm são uma explosão absoluta! Assim, a BMW renovou a grande GS quase na perfeição: continua a ser claramente reconhecível, tem um pouco mais de eletrónica de série, uma lista ainda longa de sobretaxas (que os clientes gostam de assinalar de A a Z) e um motor agora ainda melhor e mais soberano - que mais se pode querer?
KTM 1090 Adventure R 2017
É exatamente assim que uma KTM deve ser. É desportiva, mas também oferece muito conforto. Fora de estrada, é robusta, fiável e rápida. O chassis faz tudo, bem como a travagem. As ajudas electrónicas à condução permitem secções completamente novas para esta classe de peso. Se não fosse a enorme altura do assento, seria uma óptima dica para muitos pilotos de enduro.
