KTM 1290 Super Duke R 2018
Le surnom de "Beast" n'est pas totalement usurpé, la KTM est et reste une naked bike brutale - 177 ch issus de deux pots d'une cylindrée totale de 1301 cm3 n'ont rien d'anodin. Pourtant, elle est étonnamment facile à maîtriser, grâce à sa position de conduite droite combinée à une bonne maniabilité, elle semble presque docile. Par rapport à son prédécesseur, elle a été améliorée avec précision sur ses principaux points faibles. Le moteur tourne désormais plus calmement, l'assistant de changement de vitesse apporte de la sérénité lors des phases d'accélération et le châssis a gagné en qualité. Mais elle aime toujours plus la course effrénée que la vitesse élevée dans les longs virages.
Triumph Speed Triple R 2016
Comme son prédécesseur, la Speed Triple R séduit par son châssis Öhlins haut de gamme et sensible, ainsi que par son look époustouflant. Le design reste fidèle à sa ligne - ce qui ne peut que réjouir les nombreux fans. On peut difficilement se plaindre du freinage et de la réactivité du moteur, mais on peut tout à fait lui pardonner son manque de puissance sur la concurrence et sa maniabilité un peu lente, après tout, la Speed Triple est un classique avec une histoire et son design est légendaire - ce qui est bien plus important pour les vrais fans que quelques chevaux supplémentaires.
