In conclusion, while both the Ducati Monster 797 and the Yamaha MT-09 are powerful and stylish naked bikes, the Yamaha MT-09 offers superior performance and additional features such as traction control and a quickshifter.

Avantages et inconvénients en comparaison
Avantages et inconvénients en comparaison
Ducati Monster 797 2017

La Ducati Monster 797 est une excellente entrée dans la famille Monster. Un son V2 exceptionnel et un look superbe font de cette moto un membre à part entière de la famille Ducati Monster. La position de conduite est très sportive, ce qui rend la chasse aux temps sur le circuit de la maison très agréable. Mais au quotidien, il faut se contenter d'un châssis de qualité. La configuration est très dure et les bosses sont directement transmises au pilote. C'est très fatigant à la longue.
Yamaha MT-09 2017

En conclusion, après plusieurs arrêts tout au long de la saison, je peux dire que le résultat est excellent. Notre MT-09 est parfaite, tant en termes de performances que d'esthétique. Le châssis a probablement été notre point le plus important. Alors qu'il y avait auparavant beaucoup (trop) de mouvement à l'arrière dans les virages rapides, il a été repassé sans sourciller. L'amortisseur STX 46 monté est assez ferme dans sa conception de base, mais il se débrouille sans problème au quotidien sans être désagréable. Grâce aux possibilités de réglage généreuses, il y a de toute façon encore de la marge pour les préférences individuelles et l'utilisation. La fonction de la cartouche NIX 30 est également impressionnante. La réactivité s'est nettement améliorée, surtout en charge. De même, il y a maintenant beaucoup plus de réserve disponible lors du freinage sur piste. Là où, avec le réglage d'origine, la fourche se bloquait et déclenchait l'ABS en cas de freinages violents, le freinage se poursuit désormais efficacement. De plus, la MT-09 suit désormais la ligne visée dans le rayon de virage comme si elle était seule - un vrai plaisir. La vue et le son du système complet Akrapovic sont également un pur plaisir, et le fait qu'il en résulte encore quelques chevaux de plus se ressent surtout dans le tiers supérieur du régime. La roue avant s'élance encore plus volontiers dans la galerie en 2e et 3e vitesse.
