Avantages et inconvénients en comparaison
Avantages et inconvénients en comparaison
Husqvarna Norden 901 Expedition 2023
Le modèle de base du Norden de Husqvarna a déjà beaucoup à offrir, mais la nouvelle "Expedition" réussit à en rajouter une couche avec son châssis amélioré et ses options supplémentaires. Elle est aussi polyvalente qu'un couteau suisse. Il n'y a guère de tâches qu'elle ne semble pas capable d'accomplir. Précise et sportive sur la route, elle est tout aussi robuste et inspire confiance en off-road. Un véritable appareil do-it-all ! Compte tenu du grand nombre d'équipements supplémentaires, le prix semble également correct par rapport à la base Nord. En jetant un coup d'œil à la KTM 890 Adventure R, la sœur du groupe à l'orientation encore plus sportive, il faut noter que chez Husqvarna, on reste aussi un peu plus fidèle à l'idée de confort avec l'Expedition.
Honda CRF1100L Africa Twin 2020
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.
