BMW M 1000 R 2023

BMW M 1000 R 2023

The M 1000 R is definitely well done and the whole package fits. Even though it is certainly aimed more at sporty riders, the bike can also prove itself well on longer country road rides with minor restrictions in terms of riding comfort. The lower, straight handlebars and forward seating position in combination with the higher footrests automatically result in a sportier dynamic that does not give rise to couch feelings, especially on longer rides. On the other hand, there is good contact with the front wheel and sufficient lean angle freedom. In combination with the powerful drive, the Hyper Naked definitely plays in the top league. Apart from slight vibrations, the powerful RR engine is a force to be reckoned with in the naked segment. The new electronics help even less experienced riders to release the concentrated power in a controlled manner with conservative settings.

powerful and at the same time well controllable motor

great and adjustable electronics

good feedback from the chassis

stable brakes

Surprisingly manoeuvrable when desired

Standard cruise control and heated grips top for country road use

Honda CBR1000RR-R Fireblade SP 2020

Honda CBR1000RR-R Fireblade SP 2020

The fans demanded it and Honda delivered: The new CBR1000RR Fireblade SP is the sportiest Blade ever. For the first time, it now has a clear focus on the race track. Many of its strengths, such as the wonderfully stable and direct handling or the braking performance, can of course also be exploited on the country road. But especially in the engine chapter, Honda took a clear path: no compromises, power and lap time come first. This is reflected above all in the fact that below 6000 revs, the power output is rather meagre, which in turn is not quite optimal on the country road. But if that doesn't bother you, you'll be happy with the new Fireblade. Honda took no risks and simply brought the best partners on board for the SP: Akrapovic, Öhlins and Brembo were the congenial partners of the Honda crew. Of course, all these components also have a corresponding price tag.

Incredibly powerful powerplant

super-sporty geometry yet good ergonomics

state-of-the-art electronics package

super crisp feedback from all components

transparent and powerful braking point

electronically adjustable Öhlins suspension.

the engine's transmission and power delivery are primarily designed for the racetrack, not much happens up to around 6000 revs

no cruise control
