BMW S 1000 XR 2017

A S 1000 XR, com a sua unidade de potência Supersport, agora com 165 cv, combinada com a geometria e o conforto de uma Bigenduro, é uma das motos mais rápidas na estrada pública. A vasta gama de acessórios torna-a ainda mais rápida ou mais confortável, consoante as necessidades. No entanto, com uma altura de assento de 840 mm e um arco de entrepernas longo, é apenas condicionalmente adequada para condutores mais pequenos. O assento com 790 mm de altura, no entanto, resolve este problema. Os travões são tão fortes como o motor, a XR convence pela precisão e acima de tudo pela estabilidade.
