great vid. I lived in Helston for 16 years so it was great to see some familiar roads ! I'm on my third XR since 2015, now on a 21 TE but looking to swap for a 24 with the M Sport package. Did you notice any vibration in the mirrors? Mine does vibrate a bit, obsuring the view - it looked like from the video that these do not, which is good.
@@dalehorton5309 this is an oem conversion and the bike feels just the same as the standard frame. I'm not a fan of dog bones and dropping the forks. Bmw have been doing this to the GS for years. People out there are buying second hand and riding factory lowered totally unaware 😉 thanks for watching
@@trevorgarratt4101 I've already ridden the s1000r...Great bike if a little mental....the XR make for a more versatile universal bike....basically an R on stilts with a fairing....top box and panniers are super.....thanks for watching
Enjoyed the video until the end when you mentioned the price, almost 20 grand, definitely no chance.
@@ianhalliwell8604 that the main reason sub ltr bikes, 800's are selling so well. 11k not 21k....its all gone daft
Great review cracking bike all the best

@@bagwafu mirrors good...its a fantastic bike...if I only had the restraint I'd have one 😅🤣😅😆
Great review, i think you meant 780mm seat height not 680mm sea height on low chassis ,low seat
@@ollietyrrell2429 yes 780mm..... thank you
Hi Lofty. Do you think the lowered chassis effects the ergo's at all ?. Great review. All the best.
