Prós e contras em comparação
Harley-Davidson Touring Road Glide Special FLTRXS 2020
A Road Glide Special é uma boa prova de que é possível combinar muito bem a tradição com a modernidade de uma forma muito discreta. Visualmente, é claro, o "Sharknose" chama a atenção - quer se goste ou não, é único. No interior, por outro lado, está instalada a mais moderna tecnologia: Um travão ABS combinado, controlo de tração, faróis LED, um potente sistema de infoentretenimento e o potente motor V2 de 114 polegadas cúbicas (1868 metros cúbicos), que bate maravilhosamente, como deve ser para uma Harley. O espesso Murl permite uma condução a baixa rotação e o enorme binário de 163 Newton metros proporciona pressão suficiente em qualquer situação. Apenas o peso elevado e a falta de marcha-atrás podem por vezes causar problemas nas paragens e manobras.
BMW R 18 Classic 2021
A BMW R 18 Classic apresenta-se como a segunda fase de expansão da magnífica boxer cruiser e oferece um pacote completo e bem equipado. O equipamento específico para a Classic eleva o conforto e o carácter prático da R 18 sem diminuir o encanto desta moto mecânica. Um grande golpe da BMW em mais do que um sentido!
