Prós e contras em comparação
Suzuki V-Strom 1000 2017
O que a Suzuki V-Strom 1000 conseguia fazer muito bem antes, a nova V-Strom 1000 e a V-Strom 1000XT também conseguem fazer muito bem: uma moto bem equilibrada que não foge à condução desportiva com boa capacidade para longas distâncias. Além disso, existem agora características ultramodernas, como o ABS de ângulo de inclinação e o sistema de travagem combinado, que tornam a condução ainda mais segura e rápida. A Suzuki leva as críticas a sério, o para-brisas foi aumentado e, de acordo com a tendência, a V-Strom 1000 vem agora numa versão XT ligeiramente mais off-road com jantes de raios de arame, que não só aumentam a estabilidade, mas também o aspeto fresco - especialmente com as jantes douradas da pintura amarela. Para além de todas estas vantagens, o preço baixo continua a ser o argumento decisivo para a Suzuki V-Strom 1000 / XT.
KTM 1090 Adventure 2018
A KTM 1090 Adventure é um grande passo da sua antecessora, a 1050 Adventure, em direção às suas irmãs maiores. O pacote eletrónico com modos de condução ajustáveis, controlo de tração e ABS mantém-se no nível já elevado, mas o motor tem agora 125 cv, cerca de um terço (!) mais do que a 1050. Mais importante ainda, agora pode acelerar livremente até mais de 10.000 rpm e, portanto, oferece uma faixa de rotação mais utilizável. Dificilmente encontrará uma moto mais equilibrada na classe das grandes enduros de turismo, ainda com preços razoáveis.
