Honda CRF1100L Africa Twin 2022
L'Africa Twin est pour moi une moto d'aventure comme une moto d'aventure doit l'être. C'était déjà le cas pour le modèle précédent et cela n'a pas changé avec l'augmentation de la cylindrée et de la puissance. D'une part, parce que la puissance de 102 ch est restée raisonnable et que Honda a même réussi à perdre quelques kilos par rapport à la CRF1000L. Il lui restait donc la polyvalence, elle fonctionne aussi bien sur l'autoroute qu'en off-road. Le châssis absorbe presque toutes les irrégularités, le moteur reste souverain dans toutes les situations, l'ergonomie et le confort d'assise sont exemplaires. Une moto pour tous les jours, mais aussi pour les grands voyages - quelle que soit la destination.
Suzuki V-Strom 1050 2023
Avec le remaniement et l'extension des modèles 1050, Suzuki propose désormais à chacun le grand V-Strom qui lui convient. Ceux qui savent d'emblée qu'ils resteront presque exclusivement sur la route trouveront dans le modèle standard un compagnon de voyage fiable ou un copain pour tous les jours, ceux qui veulent se limiter dans le choix des chemins et qui veulent aussi régulièrement rouler sur des terrains non stabilisés trouveront désormais dans le DE un bon choix. L'argument principal reste cependant ce moteur qui, avec ses 107 ch et surtout son couple généreux, ne laisse rien à désirer.
