Pros and Cons in comparison

Pros and Cons in comparison

BMW F 900 R 2024

BMW F 900 R 2024

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

Suzuki GSX-S1000 2023

Suzuki GSX-S1000 2023

The new GSX-S1000 is an old acquaintance in terms of basic design - the engine and chassis are still from the predecessor. However, the machine has been modernised in many areas and presents itself at an extremely high level, especially visually. Although the engine cannot compete in the league of the super-potent Hyper Nakeds, it functions very harmoniously and powerfully enough. The conventional chassis also strikes a successful compromise between sportiness and comfort. The hammer arguments are definitely the successful design, the standard quickshifter with blipper and, last but not least, the comparatively low price.

superior engine

excellent shift assistant including blipper

balanced handling

bold design

driving-friendly seating position

good price

Electronics package not very comprehensive

no 6-axis IMU, no cornering ABS

instruments on the handlebars somewhat antiquated

display not particularly easy to read
