Great review. The feedback on the bike's manners in traffic was especially useful, since I spend most of my commute in slower traffic, and the Ducati I ride now has similar issues.
-
I have to ask, do you prefer this over the r nine t? Thanks for all of the great reviews...it helps those of us that can't ride these bikes.
-
Since everyone is adding quick shifters to their expensive bikes, it is probably time manufacturers start reconsidering the idea of an automatic transmission. I like shifting but having the other brake control on the handlebar would be an awesome advance in motorcycle driving.
-
Nice review. Do you know if the XR has the modulating headlight and brake light? Thanks!
-
Looks like the stock exhaust to me. Nice review.
-
I know slightly different, but between this and the GS1200 which would say is your favorite overall?
-
Thanks Bryan... Great Bike
-
this or the double r??
-
I enjoyed your review, you touched on all the flaws of the bike (not many :P) and pointed out the things I enjoyed when riding it.
I knew within 5 minutes of test riding, that this was the bike for me. It's like sitting on a couch that does 160+ and handles like a dream. Not the cheapest bike out there but that hasn't stopped me from putting a deposit down today haha. These next 10 days will take forever! -
I would call this bike Jonah Lomu. Big and fast as hell.
-
Very thorough review! Thanks for sharing. 👍
-
Outstanding review, you solved the "buzzing" issue with this bike in minutes into the demo, something all the other reviewers I have seen from around the world could or would not do.I would love to hear your thoughts on a BMW 1200GS. I believe this is BMW's best seller and a comparison between the two (S1000XR & 1200GS) would be interesting and with all your reviews it would be informative.
-
How would you compare this to FJ-09 in terms of power/torque and fan factor?
-
Amazing BMW release............I hope it is a reliable bike. Enjoy !
-
I think this is one of the most detailed and accurate reviews I've ever seen! Thank you! The vibration in the handle-bar doesn't bother me at all, some say it's something you can't handle.
-
Thanks Bryan. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to find and review a 2015 BMW RT1200. I'm thinking of buying one and would like to hear your thoughts.
-
Nice review. I'd like to see a video on the new Multistrada. I'm considering both bikes and would like to hear what you think of them after you've ridden both.
-
Nice, heard these are awesome....any feeling on the special angle specific ABS this bike has? Seems like a great safety feature (the Multistrada has the same thing)
-
Nice review.

My next bike,great review
This 2016 bmw s1000xr is a HOT ROD in all regards. Take the BMW literbike and combine it with adventure DNA - you get this beast. An absolute pleasure to ride, this engine just SCREAMS with seamless power and performance. Both due to the silky smooth power delivery, gaining in strength as you climbing the RPMs - and because of the video game slick quick shifter. There is no blip, no hesitation, no perceptible feel at ALL using it, it really is incredibly slick. You have to be tall and want the adventure segment suspension though, it's not going to be for everyone. Visit http://TwoWheelObsession.com for all the new content!
