Pros and Cons in comparison
BMW R 1250 GS 2019
The BMW R 1250 GS is the logical further development of the R 1200 GS - logical above all because one should not expect such a popular motorbike to be radically changed. Accordingly, the design has been changed cautiously, and the familiar options for the chassis and electronics have been retained. The new name R 1250 GS, however, promises a new engine - and it really is something! 136 hp at 7750 rpm and a whopping 143 Newton metres of maximum torque at 6250 rpm are an absolute blast! BMW has thus renovated the big GS almost perfectly: it remains clearly recognisable, has a little more electronics as standard, a still long list of surcharges (which customers like to tick from A to Z) and a now even better and more sovereign power plant - what more could you want?!
Suzuki GSX-S1000GT 2023
The Grand Touring variant of the GSX-S combines the supersport genes of the model series with an amazing amount of touring potential. The top chassis and the bombastic engine guarantee riding pleasure. At the same time, the ergonomics are versatile enough to make relaxed stages possible. As a genuine sports tourer, the Suzuki takes both sport and touring seriously and manages this compromise extremely well. Only the gear ratio could be a little shorter for country road use and technocrats might miss lean angle-dependent systems. Apart from that, however, the GSX-S GT offers lavish features and a well-rounded overall package.
