BMW R 1300 GS 2025
BMW has developed the new R 1300 GS with a great deal of experience and expertise, which is reflected in its advanced technology and versatility. The model appeals to both experienced and new riders and offers an impressive combination of power, comfort and state-of-the-art features. It is a successful blend of compactness, power and luxury that performs both off-road and on the road. Unfortunately, the first series of the new 1300 GS is not yet 100% perfected in some areas, as several recalls as well as vulnerable components show.
Powerful engine with very sporty reponsiveness
Stable riding performance - yet the bike is agile and cornering-friendly
Handguards offer good wind protection
With minimal features, the bike appears more compact and sportier than before
Well-integrated radar cruise control
Comprehensible operating concept
wide range of ergonomics customisation options
Well-functioning and inconspicuously integrated emergency call system
Very good balance with different load conditions
A more dynamic reorientation of the boxer engine costs it the previously typical boxer invincibility when accelerating from low revs
Not every desired configuration is possible - sometimes unnecessary extras have to be selected
Suspension works at a good level - however, a truly flawless reponsiveness is not offered, nor is a really wide adjustment range
Front Collision Warning (FCW) triggers annoying false alarms in raw everyday use
The bike looks a little too compact for an adventure bike when ridden by tall riders, especially from the rear
ABS system gives too much feedback into the brake lever during sporty riding
Susceptibility of the side panelling to scratches on raw off-road terrain and when used with rough boots
Handguards with integrated indicators not suitable for off-road use
Mirrors with integrated blind spot warning system and exposed wiring unsuitable for off-road use
Seat comfort for rider and passenger only mediocre on long lengths - seat bench is too soft!
The direct reponsiveness of the powerful engine is a little tiring on long distances for two
Despite the high price level of the GS, the quality of some components, such as the plastic gear lever, leaves a lot to be desired
Triumph Tiger 1200 GT PRO 2022
Triumph Tiger 1200 GT Pro levereras med en kraftfull trecylindrig radmotor och en hel del utrustning. Det bekymmersfria allroundpaketet på två hjul kan styras med förtroende, men föredrar helt klart en lugnare takt. Om det inte stör dig kommer du att njuta av det smidiga elektroniska chassit, bra vindskydd och massor av komfortfunktioner. Den nyutvecklade Tiger 1200 är dock (fortfarande) lite grov i kanterna, vilket till exempel kan ses i de starkare belastningsändringsreaktionerna och högfrekventa vibrationerna på motorvägssträckor.
Linjär, förutsägbar kraftöverföring
Omfattande elektronikpaket
Högfrekventa vibrationer vid vissa hastigheter
ganska tröga köregenskaper
reaktioner vid lastväxling
handtagen ogynnsamt placerade för passagerarsätet
