Prós e contras em comparação
Prós e contras em comparação
BMW S 1000 XR 2020
A BMW S 1000 XR oferece uma agradável moto de turismo na base de uma moto super desportiva. Parece um compromisso - mas é um desenvolvimento perfeito. A mota é prática e madura. A proteção contra o vento e as intempéries é muito boa, a integração do telemóvel é de classe mundial e o motor é simplesmente sempre um prazer de conduzir. O chassis adapta-se bem às condições de carga, mas nunca se torna sensível e é realmente confortável. O conforto do assento é bom, mas o ângulo dos joelhos torna-se um pouco agudo em viagens longas. No entanto, esta é uma excelente moto para uma condução desportiva, mas também para longas distâncias.
KTM 1290 Super Duke GT 2020
Precisa de 175 cv ou mesmo de controlo de arranque numa moto de turismo? Claro que não. É divertida? Sem dúvida! Embora a Super Duke GT não consiga esconder os seus genes e seja inegavelmente uma Duke em termos de agilidade e potência em curva, apesar dos seus 209 kg de peso a seco, ainda é possível passear de forma descontraída, assumindo sempre uma certa "maturidade" com estes dados de desempenho, claro. Porque ao contrário da Super Duke R ou mesmo de uma 890 Duke R, não me sugere constantemente a faca entre os dentes, mas sim uma sensação de soberania, livremente de acordo com o lema "eu posso, mas não preciso". E tudo isto vem equipado de série, como seria de esperar de uma moto que custa 22.499 euros na Áustria ou 19.053 euros na Alemanha.
