Prós e contras em comparação
Yamaha R1 2020

A Yamaha YZF-R1 está madura e faz a felicidade de inúmeros pilotos de pista. O motor brilha com leveza e agilidade, a posição do assento surpreende positivamente e o manuseio é radical, mas ainda "adequado para as massas". A máquina imediatamente se destaca visualmente e também por causa do som de aquecimento do coração. Especialmente na estrada rural, a moto pontua com os seus pontos fortes bem conhecidos: grande motor, grande eletrónica, grande pacote! Um verdadeiro prazer de conduzir!
Kawasaki Ninja 650 2020

Salve a sport tourer! Com a Ninja 650, a Kawasaki criou uma representante exemplar desta classe e (espera-se) resolveu o problema da nova geração. O chassis estável e os dois cilindros decentes farão as delícias dos principiantes e dos pilotos avançados, mesmo a um ritmo mais acelerado. O travão dianteiro é um pouco bem intencionado demais, faltando-lhe um ponto de pressão transparente, apesar do bom desempenho de travagem. Outra vantagem é o ecrã TFT, que não encontramos na concorrência neste momento, bem como o aspeto adulto, que está fortemente orientado para os modelos Ninja maiores.
