Pros and Cons in comparison

Pros and Cons in comparison

BMW S 1000 R 2018

BMW S 1000 R 2018

The BMW S 1000 R impresses across the board and is much more than just a naked version of the S 1000 RR. With its own character, more torque in the mid-range and first-class electronics, it sets new standards in the high-performance Naked segment. The overall package of brutal performance, excellent suspension and practical everyday use makes it one of the best naked bikes ever - and at a surprisingly fair price.

Brutal performance with 160 Horsepower

Outstanding DDC suspension

Amazing stability at high speeds for a naked bike

Perfect electronics with sensitive DTC

Good price/performance ratio

Character despite perfection

Driving mode display font too small

Too extreme appearance for BMW traditionalists

Without equipment packages, important electronic features are missing

The price advantage is lost with full features

Yamaha R1 2010

Yamaha R1 2010

The current engine in the R1 scores points above all with its unmistakable sound, very transparent response and linear power delivery. In terms of peak power, however, Yamaha had to cut back a little.

Strong engine

sophisticated engine character

optimal braking system

comfortable seating position.

Suboptimal suspension elements

low peak power

slightly weak traction

high weight.
