BMW R 1200 GS 2016
A GS is at home almost anywhere - but only to a limited extent on the racetrack. It's a pleasure to feel the power of the partially water-cooled boxer twin cylinder on the exit of the bend - 125 hp only seems much weaker on paper than 150 or even 160 hp on the competition. With 125 Newton metres of torque, the acceleration from the bottom is superb anyway and the GS, at 238 kilos ready to ride, does not carry too much flab despite its bulky appearance. In very tight corners, the low centre of gravity also has a positive effect - the BMW R 1200 GS is very hard to crack! Even the front telelever suspension, which suppresses the front wheel's tendency to sink in under braking, fits perfectly into the GS's overall package and only slightly detracts from its sporty character.

Segment potovalnih endurov je postal precej mehkejši, kar zadeva motorje - poleg tipičnih dvovaljnih motorjev so na voljo tudi štirivaljni motorji v obliki črk R in V, Triumph pa si mora zdaj edinstveno prodajno prednost vrstnega trivaljnega motorja deliti z dvema drugima proizvajalcema (MV Agusta Turismo Veloce in Yamaha Tracer 900). V modelu Tiger Explorer XRt je velik trivaljni motor s prostornino 1215 kubičnih centimetrov zelo zmogljiv, vendar dosledno izpopolnjen. Že zvok sporoča, da prihaja nekaj drugačnega, s 140 KM pa veliki Tiger nikakor ni premalo zmogljiv. Zaradi dobre odzivnosti pa kljub impresivni masi zelo ozki ovinki ne predstavljajo težav. Glede udobja odlično opremljeni različici XRt ni mogoče ničesar očitati; na voljo je celo električno višinsko nastavljivo vetrobransko steklo.
