Pros and Cons in comparison

Pros and Cons in comparison

BMW F 900 GS Adventure 2024

BMW F 900 GS Adventure 2024

The small Adventure looks really big even next to an R 1300 GS. The bike offers a high level of riding comfort combined with accessible handling. However, due to the huge tank and the ponderous front end, it loses a significant advantage of the F 900 GS - it is not a lighter-footed alternative to a large Adventure.

Practical features

high range

pleasantly controllable engine

great electronics package

great riding comfort

pleasant ergonomics

easy handling

Off-road and when manoeuvring, the bike feels tiring and heavy

the bike looks cumbersome and clumsy

Suzuki GSX-S1000GX 2024

Suzuki GSX-S1000GX 2024

The Suzuki GSX-S1000GX does a damn good job as a crossover bike. The range of possible uses is huge. You feel equally comfortable in the saddle when riding in a sporty style and when travelling comfortably. A very practical bike with which you can have a lot of fun and enjoy touring long distances.

insanely good engine

great reponsiveness, great torque curve

Very good integration of the quickshifter including perfect shifting

Very high-quality overall impression - the bike is very reliable

Very stable riding performance in all situations

Good electronic suspension enables a very wide range of use

The bike looks authentic both as a comfortable touring machine and as an aggressive sports bike

Pleasant seating comfort

Accessible and logical operation of the electronics

Very harmonious riding performance

Hardly any vibrations and no disturbing noises - the bike presents itself very confidently

automatic mode of the suspension adapts optimally to different road conditions

The maximum payload is 198kg. For a touring motorbike, this is a little too tight

The extensive standard equipment in this price range lacks a centre stand and heated grips Integration of sat nav is cumbersome - no suitable mounting point available, standard software not a fully-fledged solution

Standard tyres seem unwieldy and spoil the great impression

Windscreen can only be adjusted with tools
