We accompany the double Moto E champion along the Ruta del Silencio in Aragón with the Honda ADV 350
The great opportunity to travel with a great motorcycle champion to the Motorland circuit in Alcañiz to witness the Grand Prix of Aragon only happens once in a lifetime. This just happened to us
Jorge Torres, from Zaragoza to Alcañiz, through the spectacular Ruta del Silencio, still recovering from a fall at the Le Mans circuit where he broke his fibula. This charismatic rider, Moto E World Champion in the 2020 and 2021 editions, volunteered to join us on a tour at the controls of the new Honda ADV 350 that we took the opportunity to test.
This friendly and original pilot, marked by long, sharp sideburns that reach below his chin, delighted us with his endless verbiage and commented on his present and future after the serious injury that ended all his hopes for the world titles of previous years. years to renew.
The 35-year-old, born in Rubí, currently competes within the Pons Racing 40 structure in Moto E. When asked about his injury, which prevented him from competing in the last six races in ideal Moto E conditions, Jordi told us : «In the second race I broke and I was not able to participate well because of the injury I still have,
although I was already in the leading group in the last two racesbut very little aggressive and very conservative.”
Facing the near future: “Continue in MotoE. It’s a good championship and has a good promotion. We are continuously developing and later this will all be transferred to production bikes. You can make an electric competition motorcycle, put a license plate on it and take it to the streets.
How do you see it in Moto GP from the outside: “A good championship is being created, there are many candidates to win, not like before, and with the return of Márquez we will see what happens. I think that with this ‘reentry’ everything will change. Before it was all against Márquez and now that he hasn’t been, there is a lot more equality.
Márquez to see what level he is at. Will Marc be there to win races? “Hopefully, but it is not known, we will know the day after tomorrow (it only lasted one lap and had to leave). The Honda works as Márquez demonstrated in free practice today. In four or five tenths are the top ten.
You came to this Grand Prix on a Honda scooter. What did you think of the Honda ADV 350 you took with you?: “When they suggested I do this trip with a scooter, I didn’t see it clearly. Only with 30 kilometers of travel do you realize that it is a good travel companion. I’m racing more and I like cornering and I don’t like this journey. It has good stability, good brakes, all enough to enjoy a very pleasant ride. Good attitude and very comfortable to do many miles. In short, I had a great time and arrived great in every way.
The truth is that the tour with this nice champion was a real pleasure. We accompanied Jordi Torres with an identical Honda ADV 350 and confirmed the rider’s feelings.
The ADV 350 is an almost perfect companion for long trips. We only found one ‘but’ autonomy. With just under 12 liters in the fuel tank and despite the low fuel consumption. In the test we got to just under four and a half liters at a good pace on all types of roads.
This scooter has a good and modern look, good driving comfort in almost any condition or terrain, great payload under the seat with the addition of the available trunk, a propeller that offers enough power and good driving speed from the start and all this at a price of 6,450 euros
