Pros and Cons in comparison

Triumph Speed Twin 1200 2022

The Triumph Speed Twin could be the height of emotion for fans of classic Triumph motorbikes. The engine pushes like a tractor in every situation and spoils you with a wonderful sound. Chassis and brake components are of high quality and the looks are inspiring. Unfortunately, tall riders cannot enjoy the small 1200 quite as easily as riders under 1.85 metres.

powerful punch from the rev range

high-quality workmanship

sporty chassis

great looks

compact dimensions could become a problem for tall pilots

heat development of the engine

BMW F 900 R 2023

The BMW F 900 R is a full-grown motorbike. 895 cc, 105 hp and 92 Nm smell of versatility. The F 900 R fulfils this promise completely. The motorbike, including electronics and components, does a great job in every situation. But of all things, the heart of the bike, the engine and transmission unit, does not shine in premium gloss.

Great cockpit and functional connectivity

Extensive electronics can be operated logically

Very accessible but still very casual handling

Motorcycle rides bland and reserved but also wild and sporty when needed

Pleasant seating position

Wide choice of equipment and configuration options

Low and high seat options available

Suspension allows wide range of use - comfortable but also direct and precise.

Gearstick a little stiff - with and without quickshifter

Engine runs a little rough and exudes little elegance at the top

Poor splash guard at the rear
