Pros and Cons in comparison

BMW F 900 XR 2020

The new BMW F 900 XR proves that it now needs no more than the middle class.

As a basis, the equipment is sufficient, but the BMW accessories programme gives enough options to put together your dream motorbike (recommendation: Gearshift Assistant Pro!).
