BMW R nineT Urban G/S 2018

BMW R nineT Urban G/S 2018

As one of 5 different R nineTs, the Urban G/S is also a successful variation of the air-cooled boxer, which, as in the other models, produces 110 hp and leaves nothing to be desired in terms of more power. The brakes are also on the same high level as those of the original R nineT, only the chassis has to make concessions. ABS comes as standard, ASC at extra cost. You don't need much more to be happy. The only thing we wouldn't want to do without are the wire-spoke rims, because together with the TKC80 they complete the look.

terrific, authentic G/S look

powerful brakes, powerful engine

Enduro-typical reduced to the bare essentials

custom bike ex works

Wire-spoke rims not standard

Fantic Caballero 700 2023

Fantic Caballero 700 2023

The Fantic Caballero 700 is a bit of a cheat - but a really clever one! The engine of this smart Italian comes from Japan, where it is known as the CP2 and powers successful models such as the MT-07 and Tenere 700. Accordingly, the Fantic is agile and lively, weighing 188 kilos ready to ride. Add to that pleasantly easy handling and a comfortable riding position paired with a ravishingly authentic look - and you have a really good scrambler. Since the tyres basically work well and only the larger 19-inch front wheel prevents even more agile handling, sticking to the scrambler style is also perfectly fine here.

Agile and reliable CP2 engine from Yamaha
