Pros and Cons in comparison

BMW R nineT 2015

BMW R nineT 2015

Strategically perfectly implemented, accompanied by great marketing, it then does exactly what it is supposed to do on the road: It rides right into the heart. A cool motorbike with little frippery that rides great. Due to the somewhat rough engine and the cafe racer seating position, it is not easy to ride for the first few metres. But once you've settled into the saddle of the nineT, you won't want to change it.

Simple and earthy motorbike with a modern overall package

Hearty sound

Even "non-motorcyclists" recognise the special flair of the bike in front of the café

Not just for posing: Thanks to the high-quality chassis, it's also great to ride.

High price

Long waiting time when buying (will improve in the course of 2015)

Touring length is somewhat limited by lack of wind protection

On the first few metres, I briefly thought that the power was a bit lacking. However, after a while it quickly became clear that power is not everything and that ultimate driving pleasure can be guaranteed even with little horsepower. In the US, there are traffic rules called "lane splitting", which means moving forward between cars when there is a traffic jam. Before the traffic lights, for example. I have to admit that I didn't feel so comfortable here at the beginning. A Porsche on the left, a Dodge on the right, you really don't want to swerve with your bike. However, the handlebars of the BMW G310R are rather narrow and you can really cheat your way forward through the queues of cars without a second thought! The only shortcoming I noticed right at the start is the brake pedal. Unfortunately, it's a bit far down. The rear brake was also a little late in engaging. But that can certainly be optimised with an adjustment. All in all, it is a very successful bike. It is super versatile, really fun in every area and you feel comfortable from the first moment! Depending on the rev range you are in, you can adapt the bike to your riding style. Cruising at low revs and super sporty riding at high revs! The perfect all-round roadster at a great price.
