Pros and Cons in comparison

Pros and Cons in comparison

BMW R 1300 RS 2026

BMW R 1300 RS 2026

The BMW R 1300 RS combines the powerful 1300cc boxer engine with precise, semi-active suspension and state-of-the-art electronics. Compared to its predecessor, BMW’s sports tourer has become significantly more dynamic and sporty. It really comes into its own on winding roads, but it’s also more than capable of handling journeys of any length.

Excellent feel for the front wheel

a dynamic and powerful engine

precise suspension with high stability and versatility

sports brakes that are easy to modulate

versatile riding modes and electronics

a nicely front-wheel-oriented, yet not overly radical, riding position

Adjusting the windscreen is a bit fiddly

slight turbulence around the helmet for taller riders

the knee angle is a bit acute for riders with long legs

BMW S 1000 RR 2017

BMW S 1000 RR 2017

The well-balanced universal talent will also be at the forefront of many comparison tests in 2017. It still scores with the outstanding engine and the universal and complete equipment.

On request with complete electronic equipment. All features available in high quality

Strong engine - powerful and easy to control

Comfortable seating position even for taller riders

Good chassis on the road and at trackdays

Brake fade on the racetrack under high load

Ride quality high enough for trackdays but not good enough for racing

Looks greyed out even though it is technically up to date
