    It's time to say welcome to the first long-term test motorcycle in our fleet: the 2020 BMW F900XR. It was unveiled by BMW at the EICMA in November 2019, and just arrived to the dealer networks. This is just the first video about this bike. And it's one of our favourite parts: the Unboxing. First ride coming soon.

    great video as always guys. i ve seen all your videos so far. maybe a long term progress similar to how MCN is doing their long term catch ups will be very nice to see (including the first service, some of the things that might not work as they should in the process, etc). looking forward to see your next videos :)

    I’m very very interested in this bike, so I’m so glad to see you have it as a long term ride. It seems like the guided ride for the international launch was kept to slower speeds, so I’m curious to see a roll on from 100kmh to 160kmh, as well as handling in faster twisties. Maybe a short tour with a pillion as well and their perspective. Thanks guys, you continue to make great stuff!

    Compared with Yamaha Tracer 900 GT, which one is better for average users with few years riding experience? Appreciate if you can do a group test (F900XR, Tracer 900 GT and Tiger 900 Pro GT) or give your opinion on that. You could give me a big help for I am seriously to get one of these middleweight sport touring bikes. Please note I don’t do off road riding.

    Im riding 85-90% on asphalt & 10-15% on gravel roads & light dirt roads: should i buy this F900XR or a Tiger 900 GT ? If i put on the F900 XR : Pirelli Corsa scrambler tires MT60RS : maybe it could do the job.

    • @DriveMagRiders
      @DriveMagRiders  4 роки тому +1

      Didn't try the Tiger yet - it will happen soon. But I wouldn't take the F900XR in off-road. Not even gravel and light dirt roads. Of course, you can do it, but it's no fun with those wheels and suspension.

    • @Pisceanboi
      @Pisceanboi 4 роки тому

      @@DriveMagRiders what would be the limitation for riding on gravel as regards the suspension and wheels in your opinion?
      In many countries you come across gravel/unmade roads in the course of ones travels. I don't quite understand the need for a 'specialised' dual purpose bike like an very tall, very heavy GS/GSA to handle such basic, everyday unmade roads.
      Here in Australia, many own the GS/GSA, but don't actually take them off road, due expensive repairs if you inevitably drop it (which you will) and the difficulties in managing the weight solo in difficult true off road riding.
      So, if one only rides mainly on bitumen, and for small distances on gravel roads (say to a campsite), I would hope the F900XR would be capable of at least that, if ridden slowly and with due caution.
      Would value your opinion on this, as a gravel road is still a road, just as a wet road is still a road - neither would constitute 'off road' riding, and I would hope a decent road bike would be able to cope with most road conditions - potholes, rain, gravel, corrugations, snow, - but not true offload - as in deep mud, clay, sand, forest trails for which one does need a more specialised machine and tyres to manage the conditions more easily.
      Having said that, I love your videos and look forwards to reading your further thoughts with the long term test of this very interesting new model from BMW :-)
