Avantages et inconvénients en comparaison
Honda CRF1000L Africa Twin 2018
La nouvelle Africa Twin est arrivée exactement comme les fans l'attendaient : Bien contrôlable, peu nerveuse et une excellente compagne de voyage. Le fait qu'elle soit également extrêmement réussie sur le plan esthétique était un bonus agréable. Il n'y a donc pas de raison de changer radicalement l'Africa Twin, ce qui était bon reste bon pour la nouvelle - et beaucoup de choses ont été améliorées. Grâce à Ride by Wire, on bénéficie désormais aussi sur l'Africa Twin de modes de puissance, le contrôle de traction peut être réglé sur 7 niveaux (au lieu de 3 auparavant) et désactivé. La DCT en option est toujours une grande réussite et procure beaucoup de plaisir, mais elle coûte aussi beaucoup.
Ducati Multistrada 950 S 2019
La Multistrada 950 S combine habilement plusieurs modèles Ducati en une moto d'aventure de classe moyenne supérieure. Elle reprend l'esthétique de la grande Multistrada 1260, ce qui lui confère bien sûr un énorme prestige. Le moteur de 114 ch provient de la série Hypermotard et bien que la petite Multi S doive transporter 30 kilos de plus que l'Hypermotard 950, elle peut être conduite de manière très rapide. Il devrait être évident que le confort est très important sur une moto d'aventure. Équipée d'une électronique riche, elle est capable de faire tout ce qu'une moto de tourisme moderne doit faire et offre en plus une option extrêmement raffinée avec la suspension Skyhook à réglage électronique.
