Pros and Cons in comparison
BMW R 1200 RT 2015
It was predictable that the new R 1200 RT would perform even better with the new partially water-cooled boxer engine. Although 125 hp and 125 Newton metres of torque have quite a bit to haul with the 274 kilos ready to ride, the RT retains its unbelievable effervescence from below. This makes it extremely agile, especially on corner exit after a hairpin bend. In combination with the gearshift assistant Pro (which is, of course, available at extra cost), the gears just flow and you involuntarily move more sportily than you might have intended. The big bonus points of the R 1200 RT are its good workmanship, the simple and easy-to-follow operating principle and, last but not least, its small turning circle.
Harley-Davidson Pan America 1250 2021
The Pan America 1250 is Harley-Davidson's first attempt in the segment of large touring enduros and it has definitely succeeded! Apart from a few, rather negligible flaws, the Pan America 1250 Special is an all-round good adventure bike that even pleases with its off-road qualities. The Revolution Max V2 engine has a sporty character, placing it perfectly in the luxury enduro bike class. With innovative features such as the Adaptive Ride Height System, the Americans could even manage to acquire a larger number of new customers for whom the usual suspects in the big enduro bike segment are all too high.
