After considering many different bikes to replace the Tuono with, a decision was made. 
Авто/Мото
I also traded the Tuono for a S1000R. Not regrets at all. The BMW was better in every way than the Tuono except for the sound and midrange. But I missed the sound and ended up with a '22 MT10SP. The BMW is better in many ways, the ergonomics are more sporty so handles better in tight and twisty stuff. The suspension is more compliant. The electronics package is great. The MT is more comfortable and upright but lacks the feel and sportiness in tight stuff. There are more small things but BOTH bikes are better, more reliable and nicer to ride than the Tuono!
Thanks for commenting! I wish I liked the look of the MT10 more lol. It kinda fills that middle ground of rawness that the Tuono had that the S1000R is lacking. It is funny how on paper all these bikes are pretty similar but riding characteristics and how they are in real life are vastly different. The technology on the S1000R is great in comparison to my base Tuono V4. Perhaps an M1000R would give me even more performance, but I still don't think that bike has the midrange the Tuono had. All 3 are great bikes and you can't go wrong with any of them.
mt10sp rides better than a tuono? Sounds like the reliability has soured you.
Nice bike but I think you get more grin factor with the Tuono time will tell
Just coming onto this video now. How’s the reliability of the Bmw been so far? I am deciding between this and the Aprilia as well.
could you please share the links for the new parts.thank you
It’s Beautiful Bro. Smart trade up. My thought process is that it will start, run and not overheat. Shinny side up.
Having a hard time deciding between the Tuono and this Bike. My mind says BMW my heart says Tuono.
Honestly, after owning both I would say the Tuono appeals way more to the heart lol.
Strange? I've seen more BMW's on the mechanics lift than any other bike. They're notorious for being unreliable. Most long-term studies showed that Ducati, BMW, and KTM's are pretty poor when it comes to reliability. Heck, that's one of the reasons I ended up with an Aprilia. Triumph was my first choice, but imo you can't sport tour with the newer Triples.
Looking forward to a long term review.
Take care ✌️
Just curious, are you in America or a different country? This seems to vary a lot based on location.

Good morning!
I live in the US.
Congrats dude! Knew it had to be a S1000 of some kind. Cycle Werks is also pretty good with support. I threw the Arrow full exhaust and Brentune on my '21 XR---it's a completely different animal. Might let my RS 660 go for another BMW.
Ohhh I'm jealous of the exhaust haha. I am thinking of doing the same to mine. I just did the servo cable delete but definitely need more noise still.
I traded a Tuono Factory 2019 last week for a 2021 S1000R, no regrets at all. Loved the Tuono so much, but I think the S1000R is more usable in general, way better electronics/confort. I think the chasis of the tuono is unbeattable but in overall S1000R is way better and smooth.
Thanks for sharing! I feel very similar to what you are saying, haha.
Did you by any chance consider the speed triple 1200 rs, any reason for not choosing that ?
Curious as i am in the market for a nice litre class and was considering 1200rs over the competitors.
Triumph reliability on their sporty bikes kinda scared me away. haha
@@FocusedGarage Just wondering how bad is it really ?
I mean i have been using Duke 790 since 4 years and besides some niggles here and there it been a great bike, and i done 20000 plus kms on it.
Am now in the market for a bigger bike and Tuono was on the top of my list but the reliability and service network pushed me away. Streetfighter V4 with it super low ground clearance and 100 km tank range also put me off.
Leaving speed triple and s1000r, S1000r is at least 25% more expensive than Speed Triple in India, which made me gravitate towards the Speed.
@@bharadghost I myself have owned the 890 Duke r for the past 3 years. It’s actually the best bike I’ve ever owned, so easy to carve up some twisty roads. For reasons unknown to most men, I want a newer, bigger bike. I’ve watched every video on the Tuono, BMW s1000r, Kawasaki S1000x, Speed Triple… Every single one of them have some kind of issue or issues that make me want to just keep the 890 because I have zero issues with it. But I want a newer bigger bike! 🤦♂️ Anyway, the BMW and the speed, like yourself, are on my short short list. For me the Speed has better grunt low to mid, better comfort, and better looks. The BMW I would feel more confident in its quality control. So I’m hopefully gonna get the Speed in that orange color before next spring. Unless I change my mind again! 😂
You bought the throw rods bike.... good luck with that! LOL
Not a single rod thrown yet!
I had the m1000 and wanted to go for the Aprilia !
Did you do it?!
Why did you sell the Aprilia?
Full video explaining it here: ruclips.net/video/dun4eXEUDL0/видео.html
Short story is, too long of wait on replacement parts when stuff was failing. Had a few warranty claims.
Just don't do stage 2 brentune unless you want to be going through ignition coils.
I thunk about this one too, would match my m2 nicely. But then decided to forget about it after trying the XR, just didn't like the engine at all (0 throttle response or power until 8k rpm or so on the stock tune), easy to ride fast, but not fun and very sterile/digital feeling (r is probably better than xr in sensation of speed and engagement due to ergos and less wind protection), awful brakes, meh suspension. Although on paper it ticked all the boxes. Maybe I would've liked the SR more.
Thanks for the heads up about Brentune. Is there any one in particular you do recommend? Funny you mention the M2, I was looking to buy one after I picked this bike up. The XR is the Tracer 1000 I want but know that Yamaha will never build lol. I did ride the XR before buying this R. It was a good bike but this R felt so much lighter and more nimble. I can buy the more comfortable bike later in life, lol.
@@FocusedGarage we just need n+1 bikes. Ideally at least a comfy usable modern daily and road trip bike and a fun light/analog/powerful/high performance/maybe old school and special fun bike.
Would be nice if Yamaha made an mt10 like tracer.
Brentune is fine if you only go stage 1 instead of stage 2.
@@volodymyrshoniia2424 I'll keep the stage 1 piece in mind. Thanks! I am dreading installing the headers lol.
What is the issue with the stage 2 from Brentune?
You said the M package but I thought the M package had winglets?
That would be the M1000R that has winglets. This is an S1000R with the M package which gets forged wheels, an M livery, and a few other odds and ends.
OK thanks for the clarification.
dont forget the ceramic wheel bearings and clutch!
Didn't know of those!
what do you mean? what about them?
I went in the opposite direction. I sold my 2022 S1000R for a 2021 Aprilia Tuono V4. Both bikes were identical to yours 😆
That is hilarious. What do you think of the Tuono so far? Sounds better and more raw haha.
@@FocusedGarage I just traded it for a S1000XR... 😁 I love the character of the V4, but I agree with your assessment of the build quality.
@@nmbueller1313welcome back to BMW! I can't wait for the full release of the M1000XR.
@@FocusedGarageme as well. My current XR may be an “interim” bike until the MXR comes out. 😂
Don’t get stuck at traffic lights - watch the temp gauge keep rising
That bike...BIKES SO HARD
In the blink of an eye this motorcycle reaches the top speed. This it is because the top speed is very low. You are not going to reach 140 mph without some electronic modifications.
The top speed of this bike is over 140. It will not have the stability of the Tuono at that speed, but it will do it.
No need to watch the video. Return it while you can. 😂
BMW issued a stop sale on all bikes in America shortly after buying this 🤣
@@FocusedGarage Dude, that genuinely sucks. But ….it is what it is…..a BMW…
The stop sale was over in a week. Plus, at least BMW fixes things rather than lets owners figure out fixes on their own.
You sold a 21 Tuono and got an S1000R? Aprilia to BMW? Reliability-wise that's a total sidegrade. Parts availability? Sidegrade. Cost to maintain. Sidegrade. (I know. You probably haven't had any issues...........yet.) Good luck, man. Enjoy the bike this summer.
