Prós e contras em comparação
Prós e contras em comparação
KTM 690 Duke 2018
Considerando o ponto de partida da família KTM Duke, a 690 Duke é um incrível passo em frente. O motor é extremamente refinado e, ao mesmo tempo, robusto para um monocilíndrico de rua. Apesar de toda a tecnologia a bordo, continua a ser uma moto muito leve e quase pode ser considerada um brinquedo (no bom sentido). Só a sua posição de assento divide as opiniões, porque com a Duke 4 em 2012, as antigas supermotos tornaram-se numa moto nua quase domesticada com uma posição de assento orientada para a roda dianteira. A vantagem: a vida quotidiana e as longas viagens não devem ser um problema na atual Duke.
Kawasaki Z650 2017
A Kawasaki Z 650 é a ponta da classe média para os pequenos condutores masculinos e femininos. Com as suas dimensões compactas, provavelmente não se sentirá confortável como um gigante. No entanto, as sensações reconfortantes vêm do motor, que se delicia com uma tração muito suave. Do lado do chassis, foi escolhida uma configuração apertada típica da Kawasaki, que encontra um ótimo compromisso na utilização diária. O ecrã negativo é muito fácil de ler e faz lembrar a sua antecessora, a ER-6n - muito bonito!
