BMW S 1000 R 2019

BMW S 1000 R 2019

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 R125 2009

In the course of our 125cc special, we tested the Yamaha YZF-R125 together with "Psycho Philipp" on the kart and supermoto track in Wöllersdorf. This year we were already on the road with Yamaha's eight-litre supersports bike at the Pannoniaring at the Gripparty and were able to convince ourselves that it can even stand up to its full-grown peers. On the miniature ring of the "Actionsracers", the little super sports bike was then really in its element.
