BMW S 1000 R 2021

BMW S 1000 R 2021

It's really impressive how BMW always manages to make good motorbikes even better. The sporty S 1000 R with M package and carbon rims looks a bit threatening at first. But even in 2021, the S 1000 R serves up high-tech and performance in a grandiose, usable dosage. The machine rides precisely, handles well but is not tippy. The engine fires out of the corners, but does not overtax. A damn fast motorbike!

Powerful engine

good brakes

comfortable ergonomics

high-priced but high-performance optional extras

simple operation but still very fast

great all-rounder.

Quickshifter good, but not perfect, sound still a bit intrusive

still with vibrations in handlebars

If you like the look of big bobber bikes with powerful V2 engines, the Hyosung GV125 S Aquila is an interesting 125cc alternative. The look is really successful, the proportions are right and the Bonsai V2 is a real V2! However, the engine does not stand out noticeably from the usual single-cylinder competition. This may also be due to the comparatively high weight. Nevertheless, the GV125 S Aquila is a very agile and, thanks to the comfortable seating position, also very easy to ride bobber. A real recommendation for novice riders with an A1/B111/B196 licence.

Gorgeous bobber look

a real V2 engine

very comfortable seating position

low saddle height

very manoeuvrable despite higher weight

CBS brake as a safety feature

Engine rather unspectacular

CBS takes some getting used to
