Prós e contras em comparação
Prós e contras em comparação
KTM 1050 Adventure 2016
Na minha opinião, a KTM 1050 Adventure retoma o ponto em que a 990 Adventure parou há alguns anos: Cerca de 100 cv de potência, manuseamento lúdico e tanta ou tão pouca eletrónica como a que existe atualmente. O motor é tudo menos fraco, o ABS e o controlo de tração regulam de forma segura e discreta e o comportamento é extremamente divertido, em parte devido aos pneus relativamente estreitos. E tudo isto a um preço que só é ultrapassado por alguns concorrentes na liga das grandes enduros de turismo. Por mais triste que possa ser, as duas 1190 Adventures e, acima de tudo, a emblemática 1290 Super Adventure, subiram de preço para níveis muito elevados. E é precisamente por isso que a KTM 1050 Adventure é talvez o mais coerente dos quatro modelos Adventure.
BMW R 1250 GS 2021
A GS também nos impressionou com a sua versatilidade durante o teste em novembro de 2021. Conduzimos a moto numa grande variedade de terrenos e ficámos mais uma vez muito satisfeitos. A moto convence em todas as situações com seu fácil manuseio e praticidade. Por outro lado, também pode ser montado deliciosamente irracionalmente.
