Avantages et inconvénients en comparaison
Avantages et inconvénients en comparaison
KTM 1290 Super Duke R 2020
Avec la nouvelle Superduke 1290 R, KTM a tout fait correctement. La position de conduite plus sportive qui résulte du nouveau cadre est parfaite pour les attaques rapides, le moteur n'a rien perdu de sa violence malgré l'Euro 5, mais il est aussi devenu plus raffiné en combinaison avec une électronique plus sensible.
Ducati Streetfighter V4 S 2021
Le problème de la Streetfighter V4 S avec moteur Euro4, à savoir l'absence de puissance à bas régime et l'explosion à haut régime, a été largement corrigé lors de la mise à jour vers Euro5. Certes, les 208 ch aberrants ne sont toujours disponibles qu'à 13.000 tours, mais la SF V4 S se comporte désormais de manière acceptable à bas régime également. La suspension électronique Öhlins se montre sous son meilleur jour et les freins Brembo Stylema célèbrent à nouveau le goût pour la piste de course. L'ergonomie et la maniabilité sont également réussies, sauf sur la piste de course où l'on souhaiterait un guidon plus bas en raison de la puissance démesurée. C'est donc une moto de poseur parfaite, qui fonctionne aussi sur la route, et de toute façon sur la piste de course. Seule la sonorité trop forte devrait être un peu freinée.
