BMW S 1000 R 2017
Le talent universel de BMW s'est également amélioré en 2017. La BMW offre la plage d'utilisation la plus large et un moteur particulièrement raffiné, une boîte de vitesses parfaite et le meilleur assistant de changement de vitesse du peloton. Elle se conduit facilement mais rapidement. On est plutôt bien assis dans le véhicule.
KTM 1290 Super Duke R 2021
La KTM Super Duke R a parfaitement évolué au fil des générations : Le moteur est puissant, a un couple énorme et fonctionne parfaitement dans sa version actuelle, même à bas régime. Mais la performance globale de la grande Duke est due à l'excellente interaction de tous les composants. La position d'assise active est confortable et incroyablement agréable à conduire, le châssis est de haut niveau, les freins sont efficaces et l'électronique est à la pointe du progrès. Même l'esthétique plaît à de plus en plus de critiques. Dommage que le génial assistant de changement de vitesse avec blipper doive être payé en plus.
