Pros and Cons in comparison

BMW F 800 GS 2024

The new BMW F800GS impresses as a versatile adventure bike with balanced handling, a powerful engine and beginner-friendly accessibility. It offers riding pleasure and comfort in equal measure and is a stand-alone choice for all-round fans.

harmonious handling

practical engine

well-balanced setup

low seat height

versatile

beginner-friendly but not boring

wide range of customisation options

good balance between comfort and dynamics

Limited freedom of movement on benches with low seat height

brakes fatigue under extreme loads

sporty riders miss some dynamics

BMW S 1000 XR 2015

The BMW S 1000 XR does its job as a sporty touring machine very well. 160 hp and 228 kilos ready to ride already hint at agile handling, but in the saddle it looks even better. Just like the naked heavyweight S 1000 R, the XR cannot deny its kinship to the S 1000 R superbike. Added to this is an impeccably comfortable riding position and a wide handlebar that makes zipping through hairpin bends a pleasure. The electronics inspire unrestricted confidence and the brakes can be applied as if on a super sports bike. Only the screeching four-cylinder exhaust noise and the vibrations in the mid-range don't really suit a tourer. Otherwise, the S 1000 XR is completely convincing.

sharp engine

cool design

high-quality workmanship

stable road holding

ABS and ASC standard

comfortable seat

successful ergonomics even for tall riders

Vibrations in the mid rev range

wind protection could be better

screeching exhaust sound
