Prós e contras em comparação
Prós e contras em comparação
KTM 1050 Adventure 2015

A KTM 1050 Adventure retoma o ponto em que a 990 Adventure parou há alguns anos: Cerca de 100 cv de potência, manuseamento lúdico e tanta ou tão pouca eletrónica como a que existe atualmente. O motor é tudo menos fraco, o ABS e o controlo de tração regulam de forma segura e discreta e o comportamento é extremamente divertido, em parte devido aos pneus relativamente estreitos. E tudo isto a um preço que só é ultrapassado por alguns concorrentes na liga das grandes enduros de turismo. Por mais triste que possa ser, as duas 1190 Adventures e, acima de tudo, a emblemática 1290 Super Adventure, subiram de preço para níveis muito elevados. E é precisamente por isso que a KTM 1050 Adventure é talvez o mais coerente dos quatro modelos Adventure.
Suzuki V-Strom 1000 2019

Embora a Suzuki possa não ter colocado tanto trabalho no desenvolvimento da V-Strom quanto seus concorrentes em enduros de turismo, a Suzuki pode usar essa circunstância a seu favor. Em um mundo com extensos pacotes eletrônicos, ele ainda parece muito purista no ano modelo de 2019, com apenas o ABS de curva sugerindo inovação. Muitos clientes querem uma moto simples, e a V-Strom 1000 apela precisamente a este grupo-alvo. A sua V2 luxuosa exala um carácter infinito e, graças a anos de testes, é uma companheira à prova de bala. Combinada com o chassis potente e a posição de assento relaxada, a Suzuki V-Strom 1000 oferece-lhe uma enduro de turismo desportiva que resiste à digitalização das motos no mundo atual.
