Avantages et inconvénients en comparaison
Avantages et inconvénients en comparaison
Suzuki GSX-S1000 2023
La structure de base de la nouvelle GSX-S1000 est une vieille connaissance - le moteur et le châssis proviennent toujours de la précédente. Cependant, la machine a été modernisée dans de nombreux domaines et se présente surtout visuellement à un niveau extrêmement élevé. Le moteur ne peut certes pas jouer dans la ligue des hyper-nakeds super-puissants, mais il fonctionne de manière très harmonieuse et suffisamment puissante. Le châssis conventionnel est également un bon compromis entre sportivité et confort. Les arguments de poids sont définitivement le design réussi, le Quickshifter de série avec blipper et enfin le prix relativement bas.
KTM 1290 Super Duke R 2015
La KTM 1290 Super Duke R est sans aucun doute une bête de par ses caractéristiques - 173 ch, 144 newton-mètres de couple, 189 kilos à sec sont des valeurs avec lesquelles on peut faire impression sur le quart de mille. C'est presque un miracle que l'Autrichienne soit si souple et agile malgré ses 1301 cm3 de cylindrée. Sur la route, elle est donc très amusante, mais sur la piste de course, il faut avoir un style de conduite très précis pour ne pas avoir à travailler beaucoup sur la Super Duke R - mais c'est une très belle forme de travail ! De plus, la coûteuse Special Edition marque des points sur le plan visuel avec ses nombreuses pièces de puissance et sa belle peinture.
