Prós e contras em comparação
BMW R 1200 R 2015

A antecessora já era capaz de ser conduzida de forma desportiva, bem como convincente em passeios, a nova R 1200 R pode fazer ainda mais - graças ao sistema de pannier (claro que a um custo extra), viajar ainda não é problema, mas domina o desporto ainda melhor. Graças ao motor boxer de dois cilindros, agora parcialmente arrefecido a água, é maravilhosamente ágil - 125 cv podem não parecer muito no papel, mas o motor empurra incrivelmente e comporta-se de uma forma cultivada. O chassis e os travões também têm uma pontuação elevada e a posição de assento é desportiva e direita, cobrindo um amplo espetro desde a diversão maravilhosa até às viagens de longa distância. Infelizmente, a BMW também entende perfeitamente o truque com a lista de sobretaxas. O modelo básico está bem equipado com ABS que pode ser desativado, controlo de tração que também pode ser desativado e dois modos de condução, mas muitos truques interessantes são quase obrigatórios - e, claro, fazem subir muito o preço.
Triumph Speed Triple R 2016

Tal como a sua antecessora, a Speed Triple R encanta com a sua suspensão Öhlins de alta qualidade e de resposta sensível, bem como com a sua aparência deslumbrante. O design mantém-se fiel à sua linha - o que só pode agradar aos muitos fãs. A travagem e a capacidade de resposta do motor dificilmente podem ser reclamadas, mas a falta de potência em relação à concorrência e o comportamento algo lento podem certamente ser perdoados, afinal de contas, a Speed Triple é um clássico com história e o design é lendário - o que é muito mais importante para os verdadeiros fãs do que um ou dois cavalos extra.
