Prós e contras em comparação
Prós e contras em comparação
KTM 690 Duke 2018
Considerando o ponto de partida da família KTM Duke, a 690 Duke é um incrível passo em frente. O motor é extremamente refinado e, ao mesmo tempo, robusto para um monocilíndrico de rua. Apesar de toda a tecnologia a bordo, continua a ser uma moto muito leve e quase pode ser considerada um brinquedo (no bom sentido). Só a sua posição de assento divide as opiniões, porque com a Duke 4 em 2012, as antigas supermotos tornaram-se numa moto nua quase domesticada com uma posição de assento orientada para a roda dianteira. A vantagem: a vida quotidiana e as longas viagens não devem ser um problema na atual Duke.
KTM 1050 Adventure 2016
Na minha opinião, 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.
