Avantages et inconvénients en comparaison
BMW R 1250 GS Adventure 2023
La grande GS Adventure est et reste une excellente moto pour tous les terrains, même pour les épingles les plus étroites. Le centre de gravité bas du moteur boxer, le vilebrequin monté longitudinalement, la position d'assise droite et le couple puissant, mais bien contrôlable, venant de très bas sont une force. La version Adventure a certes une selle plus haute pour un poids plus important, ce qui représente une difficulté décisive, surtout pour tourner ou manœuvrer, mais en termes de performances, le moteur a tellement de punch, même dans la grande GS Adventure, que l'on peut s'éclater de manière incroyable. Le système de freinage de la BMW est solide et parfaitement dosable, et les caractéristiques ainsi que l'électronique peuvent être mises à niveau de manière conséquente - pour autant que l'on coche les cases dans la liste de commande. Cela fait évidemment grimper le prix, mais cela ne dérange visiblement pas les nombreux fans de la grosse GS Adventure.
KTM 1290 Super Adventure S 2017
La KTM 1290 Super Adventure S est plus qu'une moto d'aventure sportive - c'est une machine de sport qui peut aussi faire des randonnées. Le moteur de 160 ch n'est pas seulement extrêmement puissant, il est aussi très facile à utiliser et donne envie de rouler de manière sportive. Les nombreux systèmes d'assistance électroniques comme le contrôle de traction, la suspension semi-active, les différents modes et l'ABS en virage contribuent également à ce que l'on se sente parfaitement à l'aise sur la 1290 Super Adventure S. Enfin, l'énorme écran TFT et d'autres gadgets comme le système Race-on ou My Ride sont tout à fait convaincants.
