Pros and Cons in comparison

Pros and Cons in comparison

BMW F 900 GS Adventure 2024

BMW F 900 GS Adventure 2024

The small Adventure looks really big even next to an R 1300 GS. The bike offers a high level of riding comfort combined with accessible handling. However, due to the huge tank and the ponderous front end, it loses a significant advantage of the F 900 GS - it is not a lighter-footed alternative to a large Adventure.

The BMW R 1250 RT simply feels superior when touring. The heavy bike sits compactly in the hand and wags nimbly through the bends. A great touring motorbike.

Great wind and weather protection

Great boxer engine

Powerful acceleration

Easy engine modulation

Well-designed controls

Great integrated luggage

High stability even at high speeds

Somewhat cumbersome when manoeuvring

gear changes at low revs a little choppy
