Pros and Cons in comparison

Pros and Cons in comparison

BMW G 650 GS 2011

BMW G 650 GS 2011

His little one has been perfectly introduced to life as a journalist press vehicle. Nothing can shake it now. The thing about the careful running-in on the first kilometres should not be overrated, the GS apparently also copes with the hard instant variation.

Ideal, fully-fledged entry-level motorbike

positive riding experience

optimum chassis

plenty of comfort.

Fuel consumption could be slightly lower.
