Aprilia Shiver 900 2017

C'est bien connu, les morts vivent plus longtemps, les moteurs bicylindres de la gamme Aprilia n'ont pas tous été victimes de la norme Euro4, la classe moyenne continue à vivre - et comment ! La Shiver 900 dispose non seulement d'un couple plus élevé grâce à une cylindrée plus importante, mais aussi d'un système Ride-by-Wire parfaitement adapté. A cela s'ajoutent d'autres caractéristiques électroniques comme trois cartographies ainsi qu'un contrôle de traction et un ABS réglables et désactivables. L'aspect intemporel ne change guère, mais pour les exigences les plus modernes, un écran TFT couleur est désormais utilisé.
Yamaha MT-09 SP 2018

La Yamaha MT-09 SP est la version améliorée d'une moto naked de classe moyenne déjà très bonne. Avec de meilleurs composants de suspension Öhlins et Kayaba, une peinture plus jolie et un prix raisonnablement plus élevé, la version SP est clairement le choix le plus sportif de la gamme Yamaha MT-09. L'attaque brutale du moteur ne permet certes pas de rouler tranquillement avec la MT-09 SP, mais ce n'est pas nécessaire sur la "Special" - le plaisir est clairement au premier plan ! La Yamaha MT-09 EVO avec suspension Wilbers est une alternative intéressante, car elle est très discrète sans "peinture de guerre". Mais malheureusement seulement pour la Suisse...
