What do you think of the new S 1000 XR? 🤔
Interesting, critical of your customer service, but instead of getting in touch, you delete...
I just picked up one of these, Gravity Blue TE and the heel hitting the center stand is a thing. Mine is not lowered. But the bike is such an awesome machine that it is soon forgotten. Awesome bike!
I rode this bike at Lind a few weeks ago. Great staff there. Bike was great but i felt like the seat was tipping me forward into the tank. I've not ridden the old one. It's a very energetic bike wants to be reved.
Thank you for your comment. It is great to hear your feedback on the bike from your recent experience riding it at LIND Motorrad!
Ordered mine a month 1/2 ago, getting it tomorrow !
M package + all other packages & options.
Road test vs. GS1300 and Tracer 9 GT: the best for my needs and taste (as well as the wife and kids) was the XR ❤
Let us know your first impressions plus what the boss thinks Ash I’ve still got two more weeks for mine
@@onaroad4505 Will do :)
8 years since I last had a bike (did not even have ABS back then...). Can't wait!
Homie is taking it just today. Congratulations 😊❤
Got it yesterday night!
Of course it was raining, so was not 100% confortable with brand new tires under the rain 😂
150km since then, it’s all I hoped for now ❤
Just to clarify you can order a S1000XR with M package with low chassis and low seat on the configurator but you have to enter the options in the M package no cost options not later on just double checked and you can hope that helps your sales Ash
It was always a nice bike. I am glad that now the seat is better. :)
There's no point in getting the m package because you'll never exhaust the 170Bhp on track or road for mere mortals. Unless you have more money than sense.
That was my thinking too so I am getting the S but doesn’t that M1000 XR look absolutely fantastic❤
Great review. Love the blue color on the new XR. The 2024 XR has been nicely updated.
Thank you so much for your comment. We agree, it really is a stunning new motorcycle with a striking blue paint scheme 😊
Yes great bikes test rode it ordered it but I see you are running a high seat on a low chassis model which you can’t order on the configurator ( right hand bike) ? I’ve just ordered one and will have to buy another seat to get a high one ? Ash
Any idea on ground clearance? As this is like a sports tourer one may go with a pillion too.
Love the colour, hoping there’s some better colours when the r1300rs comes out
Have bmw made it more grunty low in the revs as my 22 plate was gutless in the bottom end
The question is, is it worth 4.5k more than a slightly used 'older' XR TE Triple black 2023, 3k miles..
I have a back to back test ride booked for the older one and newer one.. I already know the price isn't worth it, but the seat does look a lot better..
Yes that’s always a difficult decision whether to buy new or nearly new you get the latest tech and full term warranty with new With used you save all the vat and duty and dealer mark up so it’s down to how the bike rides and is the latest tech important to you These two models are not a drastic change in spec let us know ?
@onaroad4505 The differences are seat, 5hp, colour change, and 3 year warranty.
2023 XR TE, 4-5k cheaper. 2 year warranty, not 3, -5hp. Exactly the same tech, so the 'older' model makes more sense, a custom seat can be made, a tune is highly advertised from the guys over in the UK XR page.
I've had a else made custom seat done on my gen 2. Totally transformed the ride!
@@andrewhey84 Did it increase the seat height much?
@inked-96 yes I had a 12mm raise on the front of the seat to stop sliding towards the tank. Comfort gel inserts and retrim. His work is outstanding!
How tall is the presenter on the left? I'm 6'2",
Would the bike be too small?
I'm 6'2 and haven't had any problems with the S 1000 XR models previously.
I'm a shade under 6 feet
For some reason those ant headlights doesn’t appeal to me-looks too thin perhaps and angled too low… 👍
The vibration is terrible, don't buy one without riding it for two hours minimum.
I had to sell my XR it crucified my hands.
What year?
@wl660 It was a 2017. However I tried the 2024 model and it's still the same. I really wanted it to be OK too
@@BIGGGESTAL I heard about the vibes, not tested it yet, but thought it might have been fixed. I’m just aware I don’t spot these things when test riding…Thanks for replying…
@wl660
They keep saying it's fixed but in my opinion, it's not. As I said give it a good ride. 5 to 7000 seems to be where it's worst. Right in the sweet spot
