BMW F 850 GS 2018
On ne le voit peut-être pas au premier coup d'œil, mais la nouvelle BMW F 850 GS est en fait une construction entièrement nouvelle. Le châssis en acier et la transmission ont été modifiés, le moteur a été agrandi à 853 cubiques et conçu de manière encore plus puissante avec un déport de 90 degrés des manetons. La nouvelle F 850 GS se présente ainsi plus souveraine qu'excitée et convainc aussi bien sur la route qu'en off-road. La particularité de la BMW est la possibilité de la configurer exactement en fonction de ses besoins personnels grâce à une vaste gamme d'accessoires - il n'y a en fait aucune caractéristique actuellement disponible que l'on ne puisse obtenir sur sa F 850 GS. Mais cela fait aussi grimper le prix.
Triumph Tiger 800 XC 2016
La nouvelle édition de la Tiger 800 XC peut être considérée comme tout à fait réussie. La version "traditionnelle" peut déjà faire beaucoup plus que son prédécesseur grâce au système Ride-by-Wire et au contrôle de traction et à l'ABS de série (tous deux désactivables). Mais ceux qui s'aventurent plus souvent en off-road, ce qui est tout à fait dans l'esprit des constructeurs grâce aux grandes roues et aux jantes à rayons, devraient choisir la Tiger 800 XCx, plus chère de près de 1000 euros. Grâce aux modes de conduite librement sélectionnables, la version x peut être configurée de manière optimale en fonction du terrain. Elle est en outre équipée d'une barre de protection du moteur, de clignotants à retour automatique, d'un régulateur de vitesse, d'une béquille principale, d'une protection anti-encastrement, d'une prise 12V supplémentaire et de protège-mains - ce qui justifie sans doute amplement le supplément de prix.
