Kawasaki Z650 2017
Dans la catégorie moyenne, la Kawasaki Z 650 est le tuyau pour les pilotes de petite taille. Sur ses dimensions compactes, les géants ne se sentiront probablement pas plus à l'aise. Des sentiments qui réchauffent le cœur se dégagent toutefois du moteur, qui enthousiasme par ses reprises très régulières. Du côté du châssis, on a opté pour une configuration ferme typique de Kawasaki, qui trouve un super compromis au quotidien. L'écran négatif est très lisible et rappelle celui de la précédente ER-6n - très joli !
Aprilia Tuono 660 2021
Dans les épingles à cheveux, la Tuono tient les promesses de son nom. La nakedbike sportive se conduit avec précision et on apprécie la course sportive dans les virages. En sortie de virage, on aimerait toutefois ressentir plus d'émotions et d'adrénaline. L'attente sportive naît bien sûr aussi de l'apparence rapide et de l'allure insolente de la Tuono. Mais cette attente n'est malheureusement pas entièrement satisfaite une fois en selle.
