Avantages et inconvénients en comparaison
KTM 1290 Super Duke R 2020
Avec la nouvelle Superduke 1290 R, KTM a tout fait correctement. La position de conduite plus sportive qui résulte du nouveau cadre est parfaite pour les attaques rapides, le moteur n'a rien perdu de sa violence malgré l'Euro 5, mais il est aussi devenu plus raffiné en combinaison avec une électronique plus sensible.
Indian FTR Sport 2023
L'Indian FTR Sport n'attire pas l'attention uniquement par sa sportivité, son moteur ou son look de flattracker. Elle se distingue plutôt par son ensemble unique. On ne trouve nulle part ailleurs un V2 américain puissant dans un design flattrack néo-rétro chic et une ergonomie de moto naked. Si vous êtes fan de cette combinaison particulière, vous devez presque choisir la FTR et vous ne le regretterez pas. Les éventuelles faiblesses vont de pair avec les particularités. Seuls un Quickshifter et un réservoir un peu plus volumineux auraient pu lui être ajoutés.
