Pros and Cons in comparison

BMW R 1250 GS 2019

BMW R 1250 GS 2019

The BMW R 1250 GS also presents itself as a very complete bike in 2022. Confident and well-balanced, it impresses on intensive rides. The bike scores points with its superb engine, great ergonomics and practical riding aids including great app integration. However, in a direct comparison with other top-of-the-range touring enduros, it shows its first weaknesses in terms of features and components. In direct comparison, however, the 136 hp from the boxer engine is convincing in every situation.

Extremely high-torque boxer engine

comfortable seating position, suitable for long distances

great app integration

sophisticated operating concept

great ergonomics

many customisation options

great handling with strong confidence in the front

easy to ride

Shifting at low revs is choppy

seat too slack

brakes and suspension no longer at the level of the strong competition

Voge DS900X 2025

Voge DS900X 2025

The Voge DS900X has some strong fundamentals – a very comprehensive range of features at an attractive price – but it doesn’t quite feel fully set up when riding. The engine, handling and electronics need some fine-tuning before it can be considered a well-rounded adventure touring package.

Powerful engine at higher revs

comfortable riding position

high-quality feel

good braking system

comprehensive touring equipment

The engine tuning is uneven in the lower third of the rev range

the steering response is sluggish due to the steering damper being set too stiff

flashing radar systems are a nuisance whilst riding

the quickshifter does not operate smoothly enough
