BMW S 1000 XR 2020

The BMW S 1000 XR offers a pleasant touring bike on the basis of a super sports bike. Sounds like a compromise - but rides like a spot-on development. The motorbike is practical and mature. Wind and weather protection are very good, the integration from the mobile phone is world class and the engine is simply always a joy to ride. The chassis adapts well to the load condition, but it never becomes sensitive and really comfortable. The seat comfort is good, but the knee angle becomes a bit acute on long tours. Nevertheless, this is a great motorbike for sporty riding, but also for long distances.

Great connection and integration from mobile phone to vehicle - including good navigation software

great revving four-cylinder engine with a wide usable rev band

pleasant engine tuning

riding modes change response behaviour in a practical way

well-balanced vehicle - even with pillion passenger - thanks to electronic chassis with automatic detection of load condition

good brakes

good wind and weather protection

windshield adjustable with one hand

good quickshifter

plenty of choice in

Knee angle on long tours a bit narrow for tall people

suspension damping not sensitive enough - no really comfortable setup possible
