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.
Kawasaki Z650 2020

É simplesmente maravilhoso o que a Kawasaki juntou num pacote completo com a nova Z650. Os componentes técnicos podem não impressionar individualmente, mas em conjunto formam uma mota agradavelmente neutra que todos irão apreciar. Não há idiossincrasias desagradáveis - simplesmente uma mota naked que funciona muito bem em estradas rurais sinuosas. Claro que o ecrã TFT, que não encontramos na concorrência neste momento, é uma mais-valia, tal como o aspeto adulto, que está fortemente orientado para os modelos Z maiores. Apenas o ponto de pressão do travão dianteiro poderia ter sido mais claramente definido - mas não se pode ter tudo nesta gama de preços.
