KTM 1290 Super Adventure 2015
A 1290 Super Adventure é corretamente apresentada pela KTM como um porta-estandarte da aventura. Equipada com eletrónica sofisticada e quase tudo o que se pode precisar numa grande enduro de turismo, recomenda-se como esperado para o longo prazo. No entanto, o que não se vê imediatamente pela sua aparência volumosa é que a Super Adventure, tal como as suas irmãs 1190, é uma máquina incrivelmente divertida. Especialmente em curvas apertadas, é uma diversão inacreditável. A eletrónica controla a tração, o chassis e a gestão do motor de forma tão discreta que se pode concentrar totalmente e, acima de tudo, com segurança, na aceleração. Nas rectas intermédias, os 160 cv de potência asseguram que a 1290 Super Adventure também pode cumprir os requisitos desportivos e, portanto, dificilmente é ultrapassada em termos de universalidade.
Honda CRF1000L Africa Twin Adventure Sports 2018
Para muitos, a nova Honda CRF1000L Africa Twin Adventure Sports é a verdadeira Africa Twin, que, com um tanque maior, maior viagem de suspensão e para-brisa mais alto, leva a longa jornada ainda mais a sério do que a Africa Twin normal já faz. O chassis funciona como uma maca, a posição do assento permite centenas de quilómetros de distância - de acordo com a Honda 525 com um depósito de combustível. No entanto, a agilidade e a manobrabilidade da Africa Twin normal sofrem. Com a aparência mais atraente da Adventure Sports, a Honda acertou novamente no alvo: não há atualmente nenhuma moto de aventura mais bonita.
