Kawasaki Versys 1000 2016

Kawasaki Versys 1000 není úplně nový model, i když tak z hlediska designu vypadá. Vzhled byl chytře přizpůsoben současné agresivní linii Kawasaki se dvěma špičatými světlomety a mnoha hranami na přední části. Po technické stránce byl naopak opatrně modernizován - ale poměrně rozumně. Dva koně navíc zvyšují výkon na 120 k, který je díky skvělé charakteristice řadového čtyřválce výborně ovladatelný. Podvozek odpovídá sportovním nárokům Kawasaki, ale ergonomie a pohodlná poloha sedadla umožňují dlouhé cesty - stejně jako u velkého endura. S užitečným příslušenstvím, jako je sada brašen, horní kufr, vyhřívané rukojeti a přídavné světlomety, se Versys 1000 stává seriózním dálkovým cestovatelem - díky relativně nízké základní ceně jsou tyto vychytávky poměrně dostupné.
Honda CRF1000L Africa Twin 2016

Legenda je zpět, tvrdí Honda s plným srdcem - ale mise se podařila na jedničku, Africa Twin s poněkud objemným názvem CRF1000L Africa Twin je velmi agilní a skvěle ovladatelné enduro, které funguje dobře na všech površích. To platí i pro šotolinu a single traily, kde je samozřejmě velmi důležitá snadná ovladatelnost. S výkonem 95 koní mu sice na Elite chybí hrdých 65 koní, ale pro tak vyrovnané jízdní vlastnosti víc nepotřebujete. V jednom ohledu je CRF1000L Africa Twin zcela bezkonkurenční - lze si jej objednat s dvouspojkovou převodovkou DCT (Dual Clutch Transmission).
