Ducati Panigale V4 2018
La version V4 millésime 2018 de la Panigale est devenue nettement plus accessible qu'auparavant. Le moteur, combiné au pack électronique, n'est certes pas encore aussi impeccable et stérile qu'un quatre en ligne, mais dans la pratique, c'est une véritable bénédiction pour les Ducatistes - et une bonne surprise pour les pilotes d'autres marques. Mais la Panigale V4 a également surpris par son confort de conduite supportable sur route et par son agréable niveau de stabilité. Le progrès est clairement allé dans la bonne direction. La nouvelle V4 est certes plus puissante et plus rapide, mais aussi plus facile et plus agréable à conduire.
Yamaha R1 2015
La nouvelle R1 est une grande réussite et n'a plus rien à voir avec le modèle précédent. Celle-ci était considérée comme une bonne moto de campagne et il fallait investir lourdement pour les excursions sur les pistes de course. Aujourd'hui, c'est l'inverse. La nouvelle R1 a été développée en mettant clairement l'accent sur les pistes de course. Le package électronique semble exceptionnel, les technophiles y trouveront leur compte. Les fans de Yamaha ne peuvent que sauter sur l'occasion, ils ont enfin une moto digne de ce nom. La R1 présente de légères faiblesses au freinage sur piste, où elle devient un peu instable. Ceux qui aiment acheter une moto de course prête à l'emploi, sans devoir travailler sur le châssis, ont intérêt à choisir la R1M. La suspension électronique d'Öhlins fonctionne à merveille et ne présente aucune faiblesse. Pour une utilisation purement sur circuit, il est également facile de corriger la deuxième faiblesse de la R1. Le trou de couple au milieu peut être facilement comblé par une nouvelle cartographie.
