Honda CRF1100L Africa Twin 2020
L'Africa Twin est pour moi une moto d'aventure comme une moto d'aventure doit l'être. C'était déjà le cas pour le modèle précédent et cela n'a pas changé avec l'augmentation de la cylindrée et de la puissance. D'une part, parce que la puissance de 102 ch est restée raisonnable et que Honda a même réussi à perdre quelques kilos par rapport à la CRF1000L. Il lui restait donc la polyvalence, elle fonctionne aussi bien sur l'autoroute qu'en off-road. Le châssis absorbe presque toutes les irrégularités, le moteur reste souverain dans toutes les situations, l'ergonomie et le confort d'assise sont exemplaires. Une moto pour tous les jours, mais aussi pour les grands voyages - quelle que soit la destination.
Suzuki V-Strom 1050 2020
La V-Strom s'est améliorée sur plusieurs points en 2020. L'optique correspond désormais mieux à la superbe moto et distille également plus d'amour du détail. La pièce maîtresse, le moteur, procure toujours autant de plaisir qu'auparavant. Un moteur formidable ! Il n'est pas trop exigeant, mais procure beaucoup de plaisir de conduire ! Elle est adaptée à un usage quotidien, mais elle offre aussi beaucoup de charisme !
