Prós e contras em comparação
Prós e contras em comparação
Kawasaki Z900 2023
A Kawasaki Z900 pode não estar à altura das características electrónicas modernas e dependentes do ângulo de inclinação, mas é relativamente barata e não se deve subestimar a base de fãs do bom e velho motor de quatro cilindros em linha - a Z900 é uma das formas mais baratas de ter um motor tão bom com pouco menos de um litro de cilindrada numa naked desportiva! O peso mais elevado é percetível, mas não é muito incómodo, porque o comportamento e a estabilidade são bastante bons. Em termos de eletrónica "ultrapassada", o mais irritante é a falta do assistente de mudanças, que nem sequer está disponível como opção. No entanto, no geral, a Z900 é uma excelente naked bike com uma óptima relação preço/desempenho.
Yamaha MT-09 SP 2021
A Yamaha MT-09 SP é baseada na MT-09 muito bem feita. Em 2021, uma safra particularmente boa! Mas a atualização vai ainda melhor! O chassis de alta qualidade proporciona um excelente compromisso entre conforto de condução e desportivismo.
