BMW F 850 GS Adventure 2022

BMW F 850 GS Adventure 2022

Packed with technical features and additional equipment, the "small" Adventure is a high-tech machine. The many functions work well, and our testers were particularly impressed by the electronic chassis and the silky-smooth running of the engine. The Asian origin of the engine is not noticeable. The larger tank of the Adventure version and all the accessories drive up both the weight and the price. At 244 kg, the BMW F 850 GS Adventure is a bulky lump, which doesn't please everyone. But the ergonomics are top-notch, and the seating position in the wide fairing conveys a feeling of safety and protection.

Silky-smooth engine

top ergonomics and comfort

absolutely suitable for touring

suitable for off-road

technically very mature

High price with additional equipment

engine exudes little emotion

fork not adjustable

quite high weight

Honda CRF300 Rally 2021

Honda CRF300 Rally 2021

As a classic dual-sport bike, which unfortunately is all too rare these days, the lightweight Honda works very well both on and especially off the paved roads. In contrast to its predecessor, the CRF250 Rally, it has gained about 10 percent in power, but another 10 to 15 hp would be good for it. However, because the lower gears are now shorter, you can feel the increase in power, and the longer sixth gear allows for more relaxed cruising at higher speeds.

Real off-road capability

ample suspension travel and ground clearance

low weight

agility

Low power
