KTM 790 Adventure 2020

Na minha opinião, a KTM é a mais desportiva de todas as enduros de turismo de gama média. Se está à procura de uma máquina de turismo que seja brutalmente ágil em estrada e fora de estrada, vai encontrá-la aqui. Ao mesmo tempo, porém, o chassis e o motor oferecem conforto e boas maneiras suficientes para evitar que o piloto enlouqueça mesmo em etapas de ligação mais longas.
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.
