Pros and Cons in comparison

BMW G 310 GS 2017

The BMW G 310 GS is the perfect counterpart to the naked bike. The range under 500 cc now has two great motorbikes to offer from BMW. Both onroad and offroad, the small GS is a dynamic motorbike and versatile. For the experienced GS specialists among you, it may not be the right bike. But for all those who still want to become one and are looking for the right entry level, definitely. Definitely recommended for the ladies, too. It's so light, easy to turn and gives a great feeling of security. It's a bike for the world!
