BMW R nineT 2020

BMW R nineT 2020

What more can be said about the BMW R nineT? Since its release in 2014, it has been a real perennial favourite in the customising scene and also at BMW itself. Its ingredients, however, are of very high quality and explain why the result is so coherent. The boxer engine, full of character, is a real joy every time you pull the throttle and, thanks to the wonderful sound, it never gets boring in the long run. Despite the relatively high weight, the BMW is pleasant to ride thanks to the high-quality chassis and finds a balanced mixture between cruiser and sporty naked bike. The look is of course a matter of taste, but the sales figures suggest that BMW must have done something right. And even if you don't like the standard look, accessories are a dime a dozen.

The XSR is the perfect everyday bike for me. It is visually a feast for the eyes, has an incredible amount of power, but is still light and agile. The seating position allows longer rides, as the luggage can be carried on the back without any problems. The XSR itself doesn't know exactly what it wants to be now. But I find the resulting mix quite exciting. So if you don't want to (or can't) have different bikes in the garage, the XSR is a very good choice. served very well. It has everything you expect from a motorbike. In a hotel, one would speak of an all-inclusive offer. It is perfect for It is perfect for the daily ride to the office, for weekend excursions and smaller tours to the south. Even with a pillion, the bike is very easy to move. As usual from Yamaha, the bike makes a very solid impression. Everything simply works here. The exhaust is pleasantly quiet, but from 5000 rpm it produces a very appealing and throaty sound. The rear end is a matter of taste. Personally, I would rebuild the rear and remove the plastic elements. I also find the standard mirrors a little large. The retro look was not quite carried through here. However, this can be changed very quickly and easily thanks to the many accessories. The instrument panel is basically easy to read. However, a lot of information is space. Here, design and functionality clash a little. Summarised in one sentence: The perfect bike for every challenge.
