BMW F 650 GS 2012

BMW F 650 GS 2012

When it comes to optional extras, accessories and driver equipment, BMW is the benchmark for us. The driver can have his vehicle configured exactly to his wishes and also order the matching clothing at the same time.

Manoeuvrability

agility

low seat height can be reduced again

heated grips

comfortable seat

resale value.

Wind protection somewhat suboptimal compared to the F800.

BMW S 1000 R 2014

BMW S 1000 R 2014

Brutal power, smooth, almost perfect, electronics, it only gets better with the HP4. Now BMW dominates the 1000cc naked bike class after the superbikes.

Sporty chassis

extreme power and performance

very good electronic helpers

terrific price/performance ratio

fast and comfortable on the racetrack and on country roads.

Slightly rough engine running

DDC works well, but still rather on the "hard" side overall

seat relatively high

tempts to overdrive

design a matter of taste.
