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.
BMW F 900 XR 2021

Uma moto desta classe de desempenho provavelmente não pode ser mais acessível. A XR oscila de forma divertida nos raios e inspira imediatamente confiança no selim. Mesmo as viagens longas são fáceis e o condutor sente-se sempre descontraído quando sai do selim. No entanto, o aspeto desportivo da BMW também desperta o desejo de um pouco de emoção. No entanto, a unidade de potência não consegue satisfazer estes desejos. O motor, a caixa de velocidades e a alavanca de mudanças são, no geral, demasiado mansos e poderiam ter um pouco mais de desportivismo.
