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.
Aprilia Tuareg 660 2022
Au final, la Tuareg 660 d'Aprilia, bien équipée, n'est pas seulement une moto d'aventure au sens propre du terme pour 11.990 euros en Allemagne et 13.490 en Autriche, mais aussi - si l'on veut - une "Tenere avec tout". Pour cela, il faut mettre un peu plus la main à la poche. Toutefois, on se familiarise rapidement avec la Tuareg, plus accessible, et elle représente donc certainement un bon choix pour ceux qui cherchent leurs premières aventures en dehors des routes goudronnées - sans pour autant ennuyer les pilotes expérimentés, bien au contraire. En tout cas, l'Aprilia est un enrichissement pour le sequment et une bonne option pour ceux qui ne veulent pas renoncer aux aides électroniques à la conduite, même sur un Reissenduro orienté offroad.
