Pros and Cons in comparison

Pros and Cons in comparison

Yamaha R1 2021

Yamaha R1 2021

The Yamaha YZF-R1 is mature and makes countless racetrack pilots happy. The engine shines with lightness and agility, the seating position surprises positively and the handling is radical but still "suitable for the masses". The machine immediately stands out visually and also because of the heart-warming sound. Especially on the country road, the bike scores with its well-known strengths: great engine, great electronics, great package! A real pleasure to ride!

powerful engine

clean response

great but not intrusive sound

stable chassis

high-quality electronics

wonderfully noble overall impression

Brake not 100 per cent satisfactory on the race track

BMW S 1000 XR 2022

BMW S 1000 XR 2022

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
