Cheers buddy! Hope you are keeping well. See you at a bike night soon! 👍

I'm 173 cm or 5´8" and 84 kg/185 Pounds the normal seat height was no problem for me. I could flat foot the left and keepting the right still on the peg at red lights. All in all I really liked this bike for what it is. I didnt even think the bike feelt that heavy and I'm coming from a super light KTM Duke 890R

If I had the money I would have one in my Garage! I loved it! 👍 cheers buddy!

It's a fine looking machine. I would imagine it would be less of a handful off road compared to the 1300 GS.

Good morning Richard. Yes, I am sure the 900gs would be much better off road. So much fun to ride in the twistiest! The engine is so much fun. Hope all is well with you and Carol. 😃👍

Have you ridden the new TransAlp? I know the price bracket isnt the same but im cross shopping both! How does it compare?

Good morning Vincent. Thank you for your message. Unfortunately I am kind of new to doing reviews and some brands won’t let me ride their bikes. As I understand it the Honda costs less to put onto the road. Thank you for watching 😁👍 Murt

Really great looking bike, shame about that pesky mic! That engine really does sound awesome

Thank you! Xx

Great review bro. Enjoyed it. I test rode the F900xr that has basically the same engine and it was fun to ride. :) I found that only on some boxer BMWs the gearbox was a bit clunky, but this wasn't the case on the F900xr. I already booked a ride for this one. :) Drop by to check my content bro, sure, when you can. Ride safe. Cheers.

@@the_mad_leprechaun Thanks a lot Murt. I am your subscriber for quite some time now. :) Keep the good work you too bro. :) I think that I will soon get my hand on this BMW. :)

You are saying cruise control is an extra extra. Wtf does that mean? Is it a 3rd party attachment or can you get it from the manufacturer?

Is not part of the extra list! So it’s extra on top of the extra’s! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Ah ok interesting. Thanks you for that!

good review but there was some annoying music being picked up by the mic whilst you were talking. Maybe watch the missenden flyer for some tips.

Thanks Murt. I’m 6’4” and was wondering how it ‘fitted’ you?

@the_mad_leprechaun

@philby99 it fitted me very well. Seat was narrow compared to what I’m used to. It all really depends on what you intend to use the bike for. I was very impressed! Could have stayed on it for longer. 👍
