Prós e contras em comparação
Prós e contras em comparação
Kawasaki Z900 2018
No disputadíssimo segmento das motos naked, a Z900 joga mesmo na frente. Acima de tudo, o seu motor é absolutamente fantástico, funciona de forma incrivelmente sedosa e oferece uma potência rica em todas as rotações - como convém a um quatro cilindros japonês. O seu aspeto desportivo e agressivo corresponde a isto. Não necessita de sinos e assobios electrónicos, mas ainda assim transmite muita confiança quando segue as curvas, trava e acelera. O assento baixo é especialmente benéfico para os condutores mais pequenos, mas os condutores mais altos podem sentir falta de um ângulo de joelho mais plano em longas distâncias. O baixo peso e a compacidade tornam a Z900 particularmente ágil e fácil de manusear. Um canhão desportivo que também é extremamente apelativo em termos de preço
Yamaha MT-09 2023
Se olharmos para os principais dados da MT-09, incluindo o seu equipamento de série super completo, "moto naked de gama média" quase soa um pouco pejorativo. Os engenheiros japoneses introduziram melhorias exatamente onde elas eram necessárias. O chassis oscilante é agora uma coisa do passado e as reacções de mudança de carga também foram eliminadas do motor de três cilindros revisto. A potência adicional aliada a um pouco mais de pressão na gama média proporciona uma sensação de condução soberana. A MT-09 oferece muito equipamento e um enorme prazer de condução a um preço muito atrativo.
