BMW R nineT 2018
O que mais pode ser dito sobre a BMW R nineT? Desde o seu lançamento em 2014, tem sido um verdadeiro favorito perene na cena da personalização e também na própria BMW. Os seus ingredientes, no entanto, são de alta qualidade e explicam porque é que o resultado é tão coerente. O motor boxer, cheio de carácter, é uma verdadeira alegria sempre que se carrega no acelerador e, graças ao maravilhoso som, nunca se torna aborrecido a longo prazo. Apesar do peso relativamente elevado, a BMW é agradável de conduzir graças ao chassis de alta qualidade e encontra uma mistura equilibrada entre a cruiser e a naked desportiva. O visual é, obviamente, uma questão de gosto, mas os números de vendas sugerem que a BMW deve ter feito algo certo. E mesmo que não goste do visual de série, os acessórios são uma dúzia.

A KTM é e continua a ser a moto naked mais brutal do mercado. A posição de assento vertical combinada com a potência selvagem da V2 fazem-na parecer mais brutal do que é no papel. Foi melhorada precisamente nos seus pontos mais fracos. O motor funciona agora de forma mais suave, o assistente de mudança de velocidades proporciona calma na fase de aceleração e o chassis foi melhorado. Continua a gostar mais da perseguição selvagem do que da alta velocidade em curva em curvas longas.
