The GS also impressed us with its versatility during the test in November 2021. We rode the bike on a wide variety of terrain and were once again very satisfied. The motorbike convinces in every situation with its easy handling and practicality. On the other hand, it can also be ridden delightfully irrationally.

The engine is a delight to every test pilot with its wonderfully linear power delivery. This characteristic is marred in the hunt for seconds by a too softly tuned chassis.

Strong engine

convincing stability

efficient wind protection

appropriate performance.

Poor suspension strut

too softly tuned chassis

slight inertia

gearbox could be better
