BMW S 1000 XR 2021

BMW S 1000 XR 2021

The BMW S 1000 XR offers a pleasant touring motorbike 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, integration from the mobile phone is well tested and intuitive, 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 that you like to ride sportily, but also very far.

Riding modes change response behaviour suitable for practical use

great rev-happy four-cylinder engine with a broad usable rev band

well-balanced vehicle - also with pillion passenger - thanks to electronic chassis with automatic recognition of load condition

good brakes

Knee angle on long tours a bit narrow for tall people

suspension damping not sensitive enough - no really comfortable setup possible

consumption high

Ducati Diavel 1200 2012

The Ducati Diavel 1200 is a successful prestige object that really leaves no one cold. In the Cromo version, this dignified, elitist flair that defines a Diavel comes across particularly well, without becoming obtrusive or even embarrassing.
