Kawasaki Versys 1000 2016
Kawasaki Versys 1000 ni povsem nov model, čeprav je oblikovno videti kot tak. Videz je bil spretno prilagojen trenutni agresivni Kawasakijevi liniji z dvema koničastima žarometoma in številnimi robovi spredaj. Po drugi strani pa je bil tehnično previdno nadgrajen - vendar precej smiselno. Dva dodatna konjaka sta moč povečala na 120 KM, ki je zaradi čudovitih lastnosti vrstnega štirivaljnika odlično vozen. Podvozje ustreza športnim zahtevam Kawasakija, ergonomija in udoben položaj sedenja pa omogočata dolga potovanja - kot pri velikem enduru. Z uporabno dodatno opremo, kot so komplet torbic, zgornji kovček, ogrevana držala in dodatni žarometi, Versys 1000 postane resen turni motociklist na dolge razdalje - zaradi razmeroma nizke osnovne cene so ti pripomočki povsem dostopni.
Honda CRF1000L Africa Twin 2016
The legend is back, Honda claimed wholeheartedly - but the mission has succeeded to the highest degree, the Africa Twin with the rather bulky name CRF1000L Africa Twin is a very agile and excellently rideable enduro that works well on all surfaces. This also applies to gravel and single trails, where easy handling is of course very important. With 95 hp, it is a proud 65 hp short of the Elite, but you don't need more for such balanced handling. In one respect, the CRF1000L Africa Twin is completely unrivalled - it can be ordered with a DCT (Dual Clutch Transmission).
