BMW S 1000 XR 2024

BMW S 1000 XR 2024

The BMW S 1000 XR offers a pleasant touring motorbike on the basis of a supersports bike. It sounds like a compromise - but it rides like a precisely targeted development. The bike is practical and mature. Wind and weather protection are very good, the integration of the mobile phone is well tested and intuitive and the engine is simply always a joy to ride. Although the suspension adapts well to the load, it is never sensitive or really comfortable. The seating comfort is good, but the knee angle becomes a little sharp when touring for long distances. Nevertheless, it's a great bike for sporty riding but also for long distances.

Riding modes change reponsiveness in practice

great revvy four-cylinder engine with a wide usable torque curve

well-balanced vehicle - even with a pillion - thanks to electronic suspension with automatic load condition detection

good brakes

Knee angle a bit tight for tall people when touring long distances

suspension does not dampen sensitively enough - no really comfortable setup possible

high fuel consumption

Triumph Tiger 1200 GT Explorer 2023

Triumph Tiger 1200 GT Explorer 2023

The Triumph Tiger 1200 GT Explorer is a typical premium touring enduro, with very comprehensive equipment and real long-distance qualities. With regard to the competition, it may lack a bit of a unique selling point and also has some minor shortcomings, but no other big enduro offers such a good price-performance ratio. Buy it, put it on and ride off is the motto. The GT Explorer doesn't need dozens of ticks in the accessories catalogue, everything you need is already there.

Silky, yet powerful engine

Semi-active chassis with wide adjustment range

Excellent brakes

Comfortable ergonomics

Extensive equipment with many comfort features from standard.

Quite limited lean angle clearance

High-frequency vibrations at cruising speed

Slightly sluggish turn-in behaviour with standard tyres
