Both motorcycles have double disk brakes at the front, but the BMW S 1000 XR 2021 has larger diameter disks at 320mm compared to the Kawasaki Z1000SX 2019's 300mm. This can result in better braking performance and shorter stopping distances.

On the other hand, the BMW S 1000 XR 2021 is praised for its riding modes that can change the response behavior suitable for practical use, its rev-happy four-cylinder engine with a broad usable rev band, and its well-balanced vehicle dynamics, even with a pillion passenger, thanks to its electronic chassis with automatic recognition of load condition. It is also praised for its good brakes.
In terms of weaknesses, the Kawasaki Z1000SX 2019 is criticized for being electronically rather rudimentary and having instruments that are not optimally readable in direct sunlight.
The BMW S 1000 XR 2021 is criticized for having a knee angle on long tours that may be a bit narrow for tall people, suspension damping that is not sensitive enough, making it difficult to find a really comfortable setup, and a high fuel consumption.
Overall, both the Kawasaki Z1000SX 2019 and the BMW S 1000 XR 2021 are capable sport touring motorcycles, but the BMW S 1000 XR 2021 offers more advanced features, better performance, and a slightly more comfortable riding experience.

Kawasaki Z1000SX 2019
The nakedbike genes of the original Z1000 have fortunately been retained in the right areas, but the bike has been consistently tuned for touring suitability. An adapted seating position with a clearly comfortable seat (also and especially for the pillion rider), a finely controllable engine and sufficient wind protection provide the optimal basis for long, extensive and not least sporty rides. The rather compact knee angle might cause some of you to take an early break on long rides. In return, however, you get an upright riding position in which you can freely develop your upper body. The Z1000SX is a reduced to the essential touring bike with a top price-performance ratio! One thing in particular stood out: you don't always have to have all the electronic "helpers" on board to create a sporty bike that rides very well - a TOP sports tourer at a favourable price compared to the other two bikes!
BMW S 1000 XR 2021
The BMW S 1000 XR offers a pleasant touring motorbike on the basis of a super sports bike. Sounds like a compromise - but rides like a spot-on development. The motorbike is practical and mature. Wind and weather protection are very good, integration from the mobile phone is well tested and intuitive, and the engine is simply always a joy to ride. The chassis adapts well to the load condition, but it never becomes sensitive and really comfortable. The seat comfort is good, but the knee angle becomes a bit acute on long tours. Nevertheless, this is a great motorbike that you like to ride sportily, but also very far.
