      Thanks Andrew, interesting question,
      I’ve rode the 2023 Triumph tiger GT but I would need to ride the new 2024 rally to do a good comparison. I did enjoy riding the GT Triumph so it would be a close call. Il see if I put something together soon on that one ☝️ 👍

      I’ve owned a 950s multi and very similar to the V2 but after owning 6 Ducatis in a row I fancy a change or though I’ve never been disappointed with any of my Ducatis. It’s great that you’ve both got a nice set of bikes. 👍

    Like many of us I watched your latest India-Adventure (only 6-7 times) on the RE, the Triumph and the KTM and the time so save some money for either the RE or the 400 X has started right after episode 1 but ... how do you think the BMW would perform on those Indian roads? I loved the idea of the lighter bikes and can only imagine how hard that trip must be on a +200 kg bike.

    • @thatbikersimon
      @thatbikersimon  Місяць тому

      Interesting question and thanks for watching. I used to own a Ducati streetfighter V4s 208bhp and I decided to do a take it on a track day one day and some kid on a 250cc track bike undertook me on a corner and I felt like I was totally incapable on the track, but many track days later I got better and got more comfortable, and I feel it’s the same. With theses bigger adventure bikes, the electronics will help you along the way as you build more confidence on the bike, so I do feel I could ride this particular bike on the India roads. My only concern would be if I can afford to drop the bike, because I will come off it at some point. In a ideal world I would have a few different bikes for different purposes. So this summer I might just surprise you and myself with bike choices. 👍🏍️💨💨💨💨

    • @dutch3000
      @dutch3000 Місяць тому

      ​@@thatbikersimon Thanks Simon, we all know that kid ... little asshole with no care in the world. Of course that little bugger is faster. 🙂I still think, these "middleclass" bikes are too heavy with too much of tech ... but that is just me beeing old and grumpy. Sure that BMW is a great ride (am I allowed to write this on YT?). Yes, you´re right, the cost of an unavoidable drop are too high with those bikes. I´m sure the RE 450 or the 400 X are the right bikes for me but who knows, a test drive on the BMW will perhaps change my mind again. Oh, we really don't need much to be happy ... just a big garage with 3-12 motorcycles.

      If you would of asked me that 12 months ago I would of said the same. I wish I could afford to have both but I won’t ride it. The multistrada is a absolute amazing bike but it’s not the sort of rinding I want to do now. I’ve decided to keep it another 6 months to get some use out off it.
