Avantages et inconvénients en comparaison
Avantages et inconvénients en comparaison
Kawasaki Versys 1000 S 2021
La Versys 1000 S, prétendument moins bien équipée, renonce uniquement au châssis à réglage électronique de la SE - et offre ainsi presque les mêmes prestations que le modèle haut de gamme. Ainsi, la S dispose également de toutes les caractéristiques de confort qui rendent un long voyage non seulement supportable, mais aussi vraiment agréable. Les quelques kilos en moins par rapport à la SE ne sont pas forcément perceptibles, mais la S est également une compagne idéale pour les longs voyages, lorsque le confort et la maniabilité sont au premier plan.
Triumph Tiger 1200 GT PRO 2022
La Triumph Tiger 1200 GT Pro est équipée d'un puissant moteur trois cylindres en ligne et de nombreuses options. Ce pack sans souci sur deux roues se laisse piloter de manière souveraine, mais préfère clairement des allures plutôt confortables. Si cela ne vous dérange pas, vous apprécierez la douceur de la suspension électronique, la bonne protection contre le vent et les nombreuses caractéristiques de confort. Mais la Tiger 1200 nouvellement développée manque (encore) un peu de rondeur dans certains coins, comme on le remarque par exemple aux réactions plus fortes aux changements de charge et aux vibrations à haute fréquence sur les étapes d'autoroute.
