Prós e contras em comparação

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.
BMW R 1250 GS 2019
A BMW R 1250 GS é o desenvolvimento lógico da R 1200 GS - lógico sobretudo porque não se deve esperar que uma moto tão popular seja radicalmente alterada. Assim, o design foi alterado com cautela, e as opções familiares para o chassis e eletrónica foram mantidas. O novo nome R 1250 GS, no entanto, promete um novo motor - e é realmente algo! 136 cv às 7750 rpm e uns impressionantes 143 Newton metros de binário máximo às 6250 rpm são uma explosão absoluta! Assim, a BMW renovou a grande GS quase na perfeição: continua a ser claramente reconhecível, tem um pouco mais de eletrónica de série, uma lista ainda longa de sobretaxas (que os clientes gostam de assinalar de A a Z) e um motor agora ainda melhor e mais soberano - que mais se pode querer?
