Pros and Cons in comparison

BMW S 1000 RR 2024

For me, the most noticeable of all the innovations were the electronics and the steering geometry. Thanks to the additional information of the new steering angle sensor and the revised riding aids, the new S1000RR now has an electronic package with which you can not only ride safely, but also quickly, which will especially please the faster faction. But with a few additional features such as Slide Control, the average rider also has the opportunity to try out the riding style of the pros without risk, in order to cut a good figure in riding photos. And apart from that, it's also fun. The new steering geometry brings a little more calmness to the front and improves feedback, which is an invaluable advantage, especially at the limits. So the next round in the hunt for the best superbike is reopened.

Very good electronics or control systems

Good feedback

Good stability

Engine vibrations

BMW R 1300 GS 2024

BMW has developed the new R 1300 GS with a wealth of experience and expertise, which is reflected in its advanced technology and versatility. The model appeals to both experienced and new riders and offers an impressive combination of power, comfort and state-of-the-art features. It is a successful blend of compactness, power and luxury that performs both off-road and on the road. Unfortunately, the first series of the new 1300 GS is not yet 100% perfected in some areas, as several recalls as well as vulnerable components show.

Powerful engine with very sporty reponsiveness

Very good traction

Very stable riding performance - yet the bike is agile and cornering-friendly

Handguards offer good wind protection

With minimal features, the bike looks more compact and sportier than before

Well-integrated radar cruise control

Comprehensible operating concept

easy-to-read display

wide range of ergonomics customisation options

Well-functioning and inconspicuously integrated emergency call system

Very good balance with different load conditions

Not every desired configuration is possible - sometimes unnecessary extras have to be selected

Suspension works at a good level - however, a truly flawless reponsiveness is not offered, nor is a really wide adjustment range

Front Collision Warning (FCW) triggers annoying false alarms in raw everyday use

The bike looks a little too compact for an adventure bike when ridden by tall riders, especially from the rear

ABS system gives too much feedback into the brake lever during sporty riding

Susceptibility of the side panelling to scratches on raw off-road terrain and when used with rough boots

Handguards with integrated indicators not suitable for off-road use

Mirrors with integrated blind spot warning system and exposed wiring unsuitable for off-road use

Seat comfort for rider and passenger only mediocre on long lengths - seat bench is too soft! The direct reponsiveness of the powerful engine is a little tiring on long distances for two

Despite the high price level of the GS, the quality of some components, such as the plastic gear lever, leaves a lot to be desired
