    Well done! Yes, those 1,5 roads can be tricky. 2 weeks ago I meet a young dude in a hugh Audi. He did some fantasy speeds in that corner. A left corner for me, so looking into his headlights I decided to go on the edge as much as I could. Passed the speedfreak, but came to close to the roadedge and the wheels went into the soft side and I was all of a sudden sitting in the ditch.
    So I'm glad I can sit here today with my "double" knee and watch your films!
    So all you guy's out there, you might be a skilled rider who can handle both bike and road...but you might encounter a young piebrain in dads fast car.
    Take care!

    Even though I typically had/ rode BMW Boxers, the in-line 4 S1000XR was one of my favorite do-it-all motorcycles (mine was the first generation). For "me" its "ONLY" downside was that it beckoned to be ridden fast all the time and at 69 years old I sold it to get something more laid back to better suit my age/ less need for speed.

    @malcolmabram2957 День тому

    Lovely bike, great review. However, a major factor with most road bikes above 750 cc (6even 00 cc?) is that their road performance is pretty much the same. I ride a BMWR1250R and its acceleration is even faster up to 100 km/h (acceleration times), and it is superb in the twisties (my style of riding), But differences of 0.1, 0.2 seconds are irrelevant. This bike, I am sure would leave my bike standing on a track, but then I ride roads, not a track, and there are speed limits. Still a great bike.

      Yea, this was a demo bike that the dealer just got, had like 200km on it, so they made me promise not to rev it past 8k RPM. And they usually make the person taking out this bike put down a 1,500 euro (cash or credit card) deposit, in case something goes wrong. But they know me and what I'm doing it for, video, and I've never crashed one of their bikes, so it's my reputation with them...so I get to take these bikes out, no questions asked 👍👍😊

    Very nice bike. Honestly I demoed the 2023 XR. it has about 170hp amazing power/acceleration/torque and amazing brakes. Issues: A little tall. I am 5"10 and I am not flat footed. Heat: engine produces too much heat and rider is not well shielded from it. seat had a ball shape I think 2024 they may removed it. Exhaust sound I don't like. It's not loud but it sounds weirdly metalic. and a bit of vibration at high rpm. But it's expensive compared to Japanese bikes. a 22k+ for a motorcycle come on. it's just a motorcycle not a toyota corolla lol Bikes are fun toys. 22k+ for a toy! come on!

    It's too bad BMW hasn't figured out how to dampen the vibration. Every review mentions the vibes and how that would detract from using it for touring. I really would consider it provided the vibes would be tamed so you could have a performance tourer. So far the Pikes Peak wins.

    Question, when you were comparing the BMW with the Ducati V4's, why do they all have the same side profile and look very similar? It might be fast but it is also ugly and doesn't look like a BMW in my mind.

    Too bad that BMW was cheap in how they made the transmissions for this bike.. Very UN BMW like.. but yet, here we are. Bad clutches and cracking cases.. resulting in wheel drop because the trans case is part of the frame.

    I don't understand the market/need for a comfort/touring bike with a sport derived engine and comfort (high-rise bars) ergonomics. I used to ride sport bikes R6, CBR1000RR, then moved on to a combo of a touring bike (R1250GSA) and a scooter (T-max). Sport touring bikes are useless, they can handle high speeds but with the way the bike is designed - the turbulence at speeds over 200km/h make them totally unrideable for 1-2hours+, meaning - the speed is wasted on this type of bikes. Not to mention fuel consumption etc with usually is X2 vs normal touring bikes like the GS/GSA and the likes.
    S1000RR is amazing, Ducati V4S etc... (regular supersport bikes) have their place.
    The BMW R1*** GS/A, KTM's super adv etc - have their place.
    These weird abominations so called sport-touring are simply oversatuation of the market. Just IMO.
