Great detailed review. Great camera work of the bike transitions on the track and the fine details of the controls and buttons. Your English is better than many Americans lol. New Sub!👌🏽🏁
Hello. It is interesting that you say that you feel vibrations because I’m looking into buying this bike and have been asking around about it and everybody says there isn’t any vibrations at least not that it is bothering to the hands or feet. Could you elaborate a bit more about the vibrations please? 🙏 thanks
There are two nit-picks and one serious complaint about this bike. The nit-picks, which will vary from person to person are these: small-ish gas tank (would have preferred a 5+ gallon tank, and the windscreen (a little too much wind buffeting). The main complaint-and I realize that I need to toughen-up my butt a bit, is the rock hard seat! Otherwise, I really like this motorcycle. I just think for the price and mine is the base model, it should come with a more comfortable seat for longer rides! Nuff said! Cheers everyone!
Thank You for perfect review. I have question maybe You will suggest me something. I bought that F900XR gold version with high front glass, I'm a 192 cm height, what seats for me you suggest? I'm ask because like you said I have a huge problem with wind protection.
Not a seat, but try something like the MRA Vario screen. I have the red one with the small screen and I’m not as tall as you but I suspect I had similar issues to you which this screen eliminated.
@@jasonk7072 Few days ago I was ordered new wind shield Wunderlich "Maraton", I hope it fix my problem. But in that situation I thinking, What is the right position on this bike?
A fairly honest review of the bike, thanks. I appreciate you spending so much time on the suspension, one of the bike's major weak spots IMO, as in no (easy) adjustability of the forks. Sure they can be adjusted by breaking them down and changing spring rates and valving (and fluid viscosity and levels) which I'm guessing options will be made available through the aftermarket, but not to have even pre-load adjusters is a big let down IMO as even a 1/8 turn in them can make a big difference. But BM does this on their mid-level bikes because apparently they can get away with it. Another issue for me is the small fuel tank. 15 litres is simply not enough to consider this a serious sport touring bike IMO. Less of an issue but still on my radar screen of issues, is the engine. A bit down on power, and made in China. But thankfully there is an easy cure to all the above, it's called a Multistrada 950which losses out to the BM in only one category: it's not as beautiful.
I'm old school and BMW to me is, tele-lever, shaft & boxer. This looks more Chinese than German to me and a Loncin engine somehow doesn't appeal. Looks a nice bike though and a great review, excellent work as ever!.
Focused, unbiased and in-depth review. A lot of quality info and food for thought. Great video! Thx.
Well done for all videos made in English! Also, loved that macro-shooting of suspension and controls. Never seen that before in other videos!

Good review(s). You deserve more subscribers!
I have one and agree with your review but am surprised you didn’t mention how uncomfortable the seat is.
Is it really? I was considering an upgrade from my CB500X to this one, which has a very comfortable sitting position and seat.
@Georgi Petkov they make the stock seat hard so you will buy the comfort seat, simple marketing....
Best all-around bike out there. Love it!
Very Nice review.Well explained.
Good evening!
A motorcycle is the best!

good job. thanks!
How would that go against old KTM 990 SMT?
The KTM would destroy it in almost all departments, except fuel consumption and comfort.
It would be nice to know your height and inseam to judge the true size of the bike.😊
190 cm - 6'3". Inseam - I don't know. :-)

When you sit or ride it, it always seems like a small scooter.
Hahaha I'm only about 5'6 (169cm)
