Avantages et inconvénients en comparaison
Avantages et inconvénients en comparaison
BMW R 1200 GS 2015
Une GS est à l'aise presque partout - mais sur la piste de course, elle ne l'est que dans une certaine mesure. C'est un plaisir de ressentir la puissance du bicylindre boxer partiellement refroidi par eau à la sortie des virages - 125 ch ne semblent que sur le papier beaucoup plus faibles que 150 ou même 160 ch chez la concurrence. Avec un couple de 125 Newton-mètres, l'attaque par le bas est de toute façon magnifique et la GS, avec ses 238 kilos prête à rouler, ne traîne pas trop de poids malgré son allure imposante. Dans les virages très serrés, le centre de gravité bas a un effet positif - la BMW R 1200 GS est très difficile à casser ! Même la suspension avant Telelever, qui supprime le tangage de la roue avant lors du freinage, s'intègre parfaitement à l'ensemble de la GS et ne peut que légèrement atténuer son caractère sportif.
Aprilia Caponord 1200 Rally 2015
L'Aprilia Caponord 1200 Rally se présente incontestablement comme le modèle haut de gamme de la gamme Capo : un set de valises noble, une barre de protection, une protection moteur, des phares supplémentaires à LED et un jeu de jantes à rayons extravagant flattent énormément l'œil. En termes de performances, la Rally, avec son contrôle de traction, son ABS et son Temopomat, n'est pas très éloignée de sa sœur Travel Pack "normale". Et le moteur, avec ses 125 ch, reste lui aussi un compagnon puissant, qui séduit surtout par sa sonorité de V2 rauque et ses bonnes reprises. Il faut aimer le châssis confortable - tandis que les fans de la ligue des gros bras feront la moue, tous les autres se réjouiront du châssis actif génial qui absorbe même les coups les plus rudes. La roue avant de 19 pouces, équipée d'un autre type de pneu, pourrait certainement être utilisée pour quelques sorties tout-terrain.
