BMW R 1250 R 2021

What could be better than getting even more power and torque in an already powerful naked bike! The predecessor, the R 1200 R, with its 125 hp and Newton metres of torque, could already be ridden very sportily, but the enlarged R 1250 R, now with 136 hp and a massive 143 Newton metres, pushes the boxer power to its current peak. The special thing about the R 1250 R, as with its predecessor, is that thanks to the extensive range of accessories it can also convince on tours. The new engine with ShiftCam valve control is not only more powerful but also more refined. The chassis and brakes are also convincing, and the seating position is pleasantly upright, allowing a wide range of riding styles, from sporty push-off to long-distance touring.

The Suzuki GSX-S125 feels more grown-up than the identically constructed GSX-R125. It is slightly wider around the tank and does not need a fairing for a maximum speed of about 120 km/h. Technically, it is identical to the GSX-R, but with higher and wider handlebars and thus a more upright position. Technically, it is identical to the GSX-R, but it is more fun with the higher and wider handlebars and the resulting more upright riding position. A wheelie is pretty easy to do, so you can do without a few km/h of top speed.

strong acceleration for 15 hp
