Very enjoyable review. I am tempted with an XR after owning 2 GS and currently on a 1250 GSA. I fancy a change and the XR is an itch I may need to scratch. I am torn between the M1000XR and an s1000XR TE with the M Package. the benefit of the later is that you can attach luggage which you can't on the 'M1000XR. I know I don't need 205bhp and the 170bhp S1000XR is more that enough but can't help loving the idea of the 'M'...
Thank you for your comment! I will say having reviewed the M1000xr, the S1000rr and the s1000r, they all have significantly less torque than the r1300gs. Now I do love the m1000xr, but I think you are right about the luggage! My issue with all the 4 pot 1000cc bikes is the power is just too high up in the rev range. But I do feel your pain about being torn!! Would be great if you’d consider subscribing!
@@RRGS78 Thank you for your response. Absolute common sense would dictate that I stick with my trusty GSA and enjoy the lovely low down torque. Ay Idea where I can get some common sense??? Just about to click on the bell.
Stunning bike and having a 170bhp K1200S I looked at the XR as I fancied a change but whilst I liked it I thought losing shaft for chain wasn’t a price I was willing to pay so I went R1200RS instead and find ‘only’ 125bhp is enough without needing those silly play times big power gives you 😂😂😂😂 ruclips.net/video/YvIoBemdgxc/видео.htmlsi=2c8csvYOXsQJM1Wv I think it’s my forever bike with the high bars , nice can …. I can’t see me changing unless the XR eventually comes with a shaft 🤷🏻♂️
Nice video, i think the r1300rs when it come out will be a weapon! I have yet to ride either a 1200 or 1250 RS, but hopefully soon. Would be great if you would subscribe!
That catalytic converter looks absolutely disgusting! What a shame to ruin the looks of such a beautiful bike. Again, it is Berlin! I gave up and enough said!
Stunning looking bit of engineering. I’ll consider one in 12 years when they get to my funds level 😂 BMW always have great ranges but think they are knocking it out the park now

I've just bought a used 23 XR for 13.5k, had it mapped, around 172bhp. Still can't eve utilise it's power. Why would someone then spend an additional £8000 or £13000 for the carbon version over a standard slighrly used S1000XR? It's mental..
Visually a really nice bike, but unfortunately it doesn't really have many advantages in everyday life, because on passes and in the mountains the thing is definitely not faster than my mt-09sp and I would say that I even have an advantage in the curves
Ich äußere grundsätzlich meine Meinung erst nachdem ich etwas ausgiebig getestet / erlebt habe.... offensichtlich sollten Sie lernen die Meinung anderer zu akzeptieren
Finally I found what am looking for as a review Mate WHAT DO YOU THINK I have 2023 GSA1250 and S1000RR M PKG am replacing both bikes with this beautiful bike M1000XR competition package black I love the RR seating I wish it’s a wise trade
The one I had was restricted as it had not yet had its first service, so not sure. The issue with a lot of BHP as it’s only any use at the top end where you can really use it. Thank you for your comment!
Great review! I appreciate this video not being just a list of the specifications. I can get that from a PDF 😁

I think you’re right, I believe across the complete range they make the best bikes on the market, and it’s not even close.
I totally agree , its stunning and i want one , will have to dig deep into my funds but hey you only live once right

It is an amazing machine, I went for the high seat; even more comfort but luckily I am 6”1’. The market is for the likes of me, old gits…

Why would anyone want to buy a Rolex when Seiko has good watches as well?

I found the power unusable, it’s all at the top of the rev range
You reckon you probably haven’t ridden one

@@Pseudo_Placebo well if you haven’t ridden one how can you say it’s faster then an mt-09sp I own both your opinion I’d respect if you had ridden both

I think it’s a good trade, my only issue with the bike the amount of usable power!
I think the competition is stunning, but is it something to put a lot of miles on….

I rode the carbon one at Dick Lovett on an events day,i had it in dynamic but it didn't feel ballistic, does it only give full power in race mode?.
The one I had was restricted as it had not yet had its first service, so not sure. The issue with a lot of BHP as it’s only any use at the top end where you can really use it.
Thank you for your comment!
@@RRGS78 True,I was only able to get it up to 10k revs due to the route we took so I think I just missed it about to go nuts
My one had its red line at 8k,
