Caractéristiques techniques KTM 690 Duke 2018 par rapport à Yamaha MT-07 2023
Avantages et inconvénients en comparaison
Avantages et inconvénients en comparaison
KTM 690 Duke 2018
Si l'on considère le point de départ de la famille KTM Duke, la 690 Duke représente un progrès incroyable. Le moteur est extrêmement raffiné et en même temps très puissant pour un monocylindre homologué pour la route. Malgré toute la technologie embarquée, elle reste une moto très légère et peut presque être considérée comme un jouet (dans le bon sens du terme). Seule sa position de conduite divise les opinions, car les supermotos d'autrefois sont devenues avec la Duke 4 en 2012 une naked bike presque docile avec une position de conduite orientée vers la roue avant. L'avantage : le quotidien et les longues randonnées ne devraient pas poser de problème sur la Duke actuelle.
Yamaha MT-07 2023
En cette année modèle 2023, la MT-07 est toujours une bonne moto universelle. Son problème, c'est la concurrence féroce. En comparaison directe, le moteur semble aujourd'hui un peu mou et les caractéristiques / options un peu vides. La bonne position d'assise et la maniabilité sans complications sont toujours appréciables.
