Pros and Cons in comparison

Pros and Cons in comparison

BMW R 1250 GS 2022

BMW R 1250 GS 2022

The BMW R 1250 GS presents itself as a very complete motorbike even in 2022. Confident and well-balanced, it convinces on intensive rides. The motorbike scores points with its wonderful engine, great ergonomics and practical riding aids including great app integration. However, in direct comparison with other touring enduros in the top league, it is now showing its first weaknesses in terms of equipment and the components installed. However, the 136 hp from the boxer engine is convincing in every situation.

Extremely torquey boxer engine

Comfortable seating position, suitable for long distances

Great app integration

Sophisticated operating concept

Great ergonomics

Many customisation options

Great handling with strong confidence in the front

Easy driveability.

Shifting is awkward at low revs

seat too lax

brakes and suspension no longer on a par with the strong competition.

Honda CBR 600 F 2011

Honda CBR 600 F 2011

The CBR600F remains just under the magic 10,000 mark and certainly doesn't disgrace Honda's mid-range. For a modest 520 euro surcharge until the end of May, it also comes with a tempting additional package consisting of a dark-tinted windshield, painted pillion seat and rear wheel cover, tank cap decor, tank pad and crankcase decor set.
