One of the best sport bikes I’ve ever owned. I’ve always owned zx10r’s and gsxr1000’s but this bmw s1000rr is nice. This bike has plenty of power compared to the others I’ve listed above. Handling is superior and comfortable Love the cruise control and the heated grips Show less

These bikes are crazy good. I've owned 4 RT's in a row and decided to try a GSA last spring. The GSA suspension is a bit taller than the normal GS, which is a bit taller than the RT's that I'm used to. I have a 30" inseam. I got the low suspension Triple Black version. I use a Sargent seat on high setting. The bike is actually about ½" lower than my 2017 RT was. No drops so far on some several high-risk adventures and no trouble with the lower ground clearance except that I have to put my toes on the inside pegs in hard turns too keep boots from scraping pavement. I live in the Chicago area. Good motorcycle roads are hundreds of miles away. My bike has to be a good tourer first. The GSA definitely qualifies. I made a solo trip to Colorado last season; I-80 to Ft. Collins, then Top o the Rockies rally camping for a few days and a slower ride home. The bike was flawless. If you're used to a full touring bike, the stock windscreen won't make you happy on the interstates without ear plugs. I got a V-Stream Deluxe touring screen and Aeroflow Aerowings on mine. I can do 100 mile rides without plugs but keep a pair in my pocket for longer stints. With this setup, I'm able to easily hear music through my helmet speakers, run with visor halfway up, no bugs hitting my helmet or face and wind noise OK for under 100 mile rides. I've changed seat and screen for all my BMW bikes since my first '99 RT. I added bar-baks on this bike. The reach is just slightly too far. I like to sit up straight on the interstate. It's easier on the shoulders and extra height allows me to stand on pegs while riding. You will not have any complaint about the power, torque or handling of this bike. It's not a lightweight but for what it is, it's well designed and easy to ride. The weight is in a good place and it really can do a lot. I spend most of my time at 2500 to 4500 RPM, but I flog it, the red line is 9000...anything above 6000 is just scary fast...in a good way. It pulls forever. I've had it in the woods a few times and went through half a dozen water crossings with it. I ran the last RT through some unpaved stuff. This bike does it better even with near street tires on it. A negative is the fuel economy at speed. It gets MPG in the mid to high 30s at 78mph with cruise on...and it uses premium. That's the worst MPG I've ever had on a bike. If you stay off interstates, MPG rises to high 40s, even if you ride it like a lunatic. I think it's just not aerodynamically good and may be geared a bit lower than an RT. It's so smooth you don't notice the extra revs, but make sure that credit card is working well before you go cross country with this one. Storage in the aluminum side cases is spectacular. I really like them, however I also think their square-flatness is part of the MPG issue. I can put tools and luggage and camping gear on this bike and go anywhere at any speed. Triple Black is a bit hard to keep clean. I've used ceramic and other special brews to coat the surfaces. They look great when clean but there are a lot of matte surfaces that just can't be made to repel dirt well. Get some good wheel brushes for the flat-black spoked wheel rims. Mine came with Bridgestone 80/20 tires...noisiest tread I've ever had on any bike...and my first bike was a Honda Trail 90 with knobbies. I put a set of Continental Trail Attack 3's (90/10) on it and ALL that noise went away. They also stick like glue on asphalt. I dinged "Comfort" one star only because of higher wind noise at speed. People using their bikes as actual Adventure bikes won't mind that. The leg room on this bike is phenomenal. If you're long of leg, this is your bike....but then don't get a low-suspension like mine. I rode a standard GS on 10,000 Alpine hairpin turns this year with Beach's moto tours. It was fantastic. The differences aren't great. The big tank of the Adventure is the largest difference and it's not much of a problem. Gives a little more wind protection riding in colder weather and you get extra range...which is handy with the thirsty nature of the bike at speed. Show less
