KTM 1090 Adventure 2017
KTM 1090 Adventure je velik korak naprej od predhodnika 1050 Adventure k večjim sestram. Paket elektronike z nastavljivimi načini vožnje, nadzorom oprijema in ABS ostaja na že tako visoki ravni, motor pa ima zdaj 125 KM, kar je približno tretjino (!) več kot pri modelu 1050. Še pomembneje je, da se zdaj lahko prosto vrti do več kot 10.000 vrtljajev na minuto in tako ponuja bolj uporabno območje vrtljajev. V razredu še vedno cenovno ugodnih velikih potovalnih endurov boste težko našli bolj uravnoteženo kolo.
BMW R 1250 GS 2020
The BMW R 1250 GS is the logical further development of the R 1200 GS - logical above all because one should not expect such a popular motorbike to be radically changed. Accordingly, the design has been changed cautiously, and the familiar options for the chassis and electronics have been retained. The new name R 1250 GS, however, promises a new engine - and it really is something! 136 hp at 7750 rpm and a whopping 143 Newton metres of maximum torque at 6250 rpm are an absolute blast! BMW has thus renovated the big GS almost perfectly: it remains clearly recognisable, has a little more electronics as standard, a still long list of surcharges (which customers like to tick from A to Z) and a now even better and more sovereign power plant - what more could you want?!
