Pros and Cons in comparison

BMW F 800 R 2017

With a EURO4 engine, new riding modes, new instruments and new colours, the F 800 R starts the new season. It is recognisable at first glance only by the end cap on the stately stainless steel exhaust. It is one of those full-grown motorbikes that, despite its considerable sporting potential, was designed for the widest possible user group. Therefore, it is absolutely beginner-friendly (throttled), but can also inspire an experienced audience. Its character remains somewhat pragmatic, but the unmistakable, hollow sound of the inline two compensates for this.

strong brakes

upgraded equipment

low weight

accessible geometry

characteristic sound

somewhat pragmatic

effervescence is a little lacking

Honda X-ADV 2019

Honda has done it again. The new X-ADV continues to present itself as a versatile work tool that attracts a lot of attention. Improvements have been made in the right places to make it more accessible, more practical, but also more refined. While its extravagant concept will always attract sceptics, proud owners swear by it and can enjoy thousands of kilometres in the saddle.

Real all-rounder

Improved drivetrain

More powerful sound

More accessible than predecessor

High level of comfort

Sublime feeling in the saddle

Running boards a little too narrow

chain drive for scooter/adventure operation requires high maintenance

extroverted appearance not for everyone
