BMW R 1250 GS 2019
La BMW R 1250 GS est l'évolution logique de la R 1200 GS - logique surtout parce qu'on ne peut pas s'attendre à ce qu'une moto aussi populaire soit radicalement modifiée. En conséquence, le design est modifié avec précaution et les options connues sont conservées pour le châssis et l'électronique. Le nouveau nom R 1250 GS promet cependant un nouveau moteur - et il a effectivement de quoi faire ! 136 ch à 7750 tours et pas moins de 143 newtons-mètres de couple maximal à 6250 tours, c'est une véritable bombe ! BMW rénove ainsi presque parfaitement la grande GS : elle reste clairement identifiable, dispose d'un peu plus d'électronique de série, d'une liste de prix supplémentaires toujours aussi longue (que la clientèle aime cocher de A à Z) et d'un moteur encore plus performant et souverain - que peut-on demander de plus ?
Suzuki V-Strom 1050 XT 2020
Même si le prix de la nouvelle V-Strom 1050 est passé dans une ligue où elle doit se laisser comparer à la concurrence plus qu'auparavant, elle est restée fidèle à elle-même ou plutôt une moto simple, prête pour le grand voyage, malgré les caractéristiques de sécurité les plus modernes. Son terrain de prédilection est la route, qui peut être mauvaise et cahoteuse grâce au bon châssis, les passages offroad ne posent pas non plus de problème, mais ceux qui recherchent régulièrement des terrains plus difficiles auront tendance à ne pas choisir la Suzuki en raison de son poids imposant. Mais dans les épingles goudronnées, la masse se laisse conduire avec une rapidité et une facilité étonnantes. Le moteur addictif, le design rétro réussi et l'aptitude extrême à la randonnée font de la Suzuki V-Strom 1050 XT une moto de pointe pour les grands voyages.
