Avantages et inconvénients en comparaison
Avantages et inconvénients en comparaison
Ducati Monster 2021
Ducati a bien réussi le Monster dans son ensemble. Sur le papier, on comprend vite que Ducati a pu économiser quelques frais sur les caractéristiques / options. Mais une fois en selle, le plaisir de conduire domine. Une pure joie de vivre s'installe lorsque la machine agile s'élance avec chaleur à travers les virages. Le V2 charismatique pétarade nonchalamment et parfaitement dimensionné dans les épingles.
Yamaha MT-09 SP 2018
La Yamaha MT-09 SP est la version améliorée d'une moto naked de classe moyenne déjà très bonne. Avec de meilleurs composants de suspension Öhlins et Kayaba, une peinture plus jolie et un prix raisonnablement plus élevé, la version SP est clairement le choix le plus sportif de la gamme Yamaha MT-09. L'attaque brutale du moteur ne permet certes pas de rouler tranquillement avec la MT-09 SP, mais ce n'est pas nécessaire sur la "Special" - le plaisir est clairement au premier plan ! La Yamaha MT-09 EVO avec suspension Wilbers est une alternative intéressante, car elle est très discrète sans "peinture de guerre". Mais malheureusement seulement pour la Suisse...
