Powerful engine with breathtakingly good reponsiveness
Very stable riding performance - yet the bike is agile and cornering-friendly
Very practical configuration options
Handguards offer surprisingly good wind protection
With minimal features, the bike appears more compact and sportier than before
Well-integrated radar cruise control
Comprehensible operating concept
Wide range of options for ergonomics adjustment
Great functioning and inconspicuously integrated emergency call system
Very good balance even with very high loads
Not every desired configuration is possible - sometimes unnecessary extras have to be selected
suspension works at a high level - however, a really flawless reponsiveness is not offered, nor is a really wide adjustment range
Front Collision Warning (FCW) triggers annoying false alarms in raw everyday use
with a very sporty riding style, you get a slight rolling motion in the vehicle
bike looks a little too compact for an adventure bike on tall riders, especially from the rear
ABS system gives too much feedback into the brake lever when riding in a sporty manner
susceptibility of the side fairings to scratches in raw terrain and when used with rough boots
handguards with integrated indicators not suitable for off-road riding
mirrors with integrated blind spot warning system and exposed wiring unsuitable for off-road riding
seating comfort for rider and passenger only mediocre on long lengths - seat is too soft!The direct reponsiveness of the powerful engine is a little tiring on long lengths with two people.
