KTM 1050 Adventure 2016

Na minha opinião, a KTM 1050 Adventure retoma o ponto em que a 990 Adventure parou há alguns anos: Cerca de 100 cv de potência, manuseamento lúdico e tanta ou tão pouca eletrónica como a que existe atualmente. O motor é tudo menos fraco, o ABS e o controlo de tração regulam de forma segura e discreta e o comportamento é extremamente divertido, em parte devido aos pneus relativamente estreitos. E tudo isto a um preço que só é ultrapassado por alguns concorrentes na liga das grandes enduros de turismo. Por mais triste que possa ser, as duas 1190 Adventures e, acima de tudo, a emblemática 1290 Super Adventure, subiram de preço para níveis muito elevados. E é precisamente por isso que a KTM 1050 Adventure é talvez o mais coerente dos quatro modelos Adventure.
Aprilia Tuareg 660 2022

Em suma, a bem equipada Tuareg 660 da Aprilia não é apenas uma grande enduro de turismo no verdadeiro sentido da palavra por 11.990 euros na Alemanha e 13.490 euros na Áustria, mas também - se quiser - uma "Tenere com tudo". Para isso, é preciso ir um pouco mais fundo no bolso. Mas rapidamente se familiarizará com a Tuareg, mais acessível, o que a torna uma boa escolha para quem procura as suas primeiras aventuras fora dos circuitos habituais - sem aborrecer os condutores experientes, bem pelo contrário. Em qualquer caso, a Aprilia é um enriquecimento para a Sequment e uma boa opção para aqueles que não querem prescindir de ajudas electrónicas à condução, mesmo num Reissenduro orientado para o todo-o-terreno.
