KTM 1290 Super Adventure R 2017
A 1290 Super Adventure R é suposto ser o novo porta-estandarte todo-o-terreno da gama Adventure da KTM - e é! É espantoso como é fácil mover 240 quilos fora de estrada com o depósito cheio. O modo todo-o-terreno também é bastante convincente. Por outro lado, tal como na 1290 Super Adventure S, os 160 cv e 140 Newton metros de binário, bem como todas as características de conforto (exceto a suspensão ajustável eletronicamente) estão disponíveis na versão R: Quatro modos de desempenho (Sport, Street, Rain e Offroad), ABS em curva, controlo de tração, cruise control, sistema race-on sem chave e gestão de telemóvel "My Ride". Isto significa que a KTM 1290 Super Adventure R combina, de facto, quatro motos numa só - justificando assim o seu orgulhoso preço.
BMW R 1200 GS 2017
Durante mais de 35 anos, a BMW tem continuado a expandir a gama boxer e está constantemente a trabalhar na evolução da GS. Para além da atualização EURO4 do motor com novo catalisador e mapeamento, existem agora ainda mais características como o Dynamic ESA Next Generation com compensação automática da posição de condução, que melhora ainda mais a estabilidade e o conforto do condutor. Com o seu esquema de cores subtil, a versão Exclusive destina-se aos amigos de uma aparência elegante e discreta e, ao contrário da variante Rallye mais vistosa, foi concebida mais para a estrada. Muitas características têm um custo extra, mas os clientes da GS normalmente não se importam - 90 por cento são encomendados com o equipamento completo.
