BMW Motorrad expanded into the adventure-sport motorcycle category with its original S 1000 XR. Based off the German brand’s ultra-high-performance S 1000 RR superbike, the redesigned 2020 XR borrows a tweaked version of the S 1000’s recently overhauled liquid-cooled 999cc inline-four (read the 2019 BMW S 1000 RR First Look) with a lighter and more sharp-handling chassis designed for added agility as outlined in the 2020 BMW S 1000 XR First Look Preview. In typical Motorrad fashion, electronic improvements and a plethora of options came on our testbike raising MSRP to $22,640 as tested. Watch this video and see what the Bavarian brand’s top-of-the-line adventure-sport bike is like to ride on the road.

These MC Commutes are some of my favorite motorcycle videos. Adam is entertaining to listen to and watch. He obviously does his research on each bike and delivers interesting narrative during the ride. I don't have the skill or guts to ride as aggressively as he does, so it's fun to watch Adam split lanes and "give it the beans".

@silv3rArrow 4 года назад

Not having the shift cam is a good thing in my opinion. Power delivery is not as linear with it :/

@user-cx2bk6pm2f 3 года назад

Agree it's good NOT having it... but it's a reliability thing for me. The electronic controller is buried in the head, subject to extreme heat cycles, and will eventually fail. What then, will the bike even start?

@kuhndj67 4 года назад

regarding the touchscreen... IMO touchscreens are a bit of a fad wrt bikes, good handlebar controls are FAR more important so you don't have to take your hands off the bars. Touch could be handy when stopped but with good bar controls even that is kindof pointless. I've always like the S1000XR performance but found it less capable for touring compared to the Ducati Multi and KTM SA. Strikes me more as a "tall guy's hypernaked". One big improvement is getting rid of the pannier scaffolding and going with a better integrated mounting solution... makes the bike look MUCH better without bags.

@Mr.ZiggedWhenHeShouldaZagged 4 года назад

Pilots HATE touch screens in planes, used to feel buttons n levers, now you have to focus on where things are on a screen n try to tap it while bumping in turbulence, it’s horrible and shouldn’t be on any vehicle either

The hypernaked category is seeing a lot of action lately... I'm sure the next S1000R will be a fully up to date beast.

@user-cx2bk6pm2f 3 года назад

Regarding TFT... BMW is at a weird spot in time where only the very high end and very low end do not have it. The G310 as Adam mentioned but the K1600 doesn't have TFT either.

Yeah I feel like that is a signature bmw parallel. I test drove an xr, f800gs and a r1200gs. Although the r1200gs has also a buzz at 5k but it feels much more natural because of the clacky boxer. That why I ended up with 1200gs

There is a HUGE difference between Rain and Road. You will notice it after the revlimiter has been removed. Dynamic allows for power wheelies which are prevented in Road mode and later ABS intervention. Dynamic Pro allows for stunts if you're into that (stoppies, ...) and disables almost all assistance.

@ YWT Stewart : depends on you but here some ideas : Kawasaki Z900, KTM 790 Duke, CB650R Neo Sports Café to save money. NC750X or NC750S in DCT to save fuel and easy handle in traffic jams. KTM Super Duke R, BMW S1000R, Kawasaki Z1000 for the fun. Ducati Diavel S or XDiavel S for cruising and accelerations. Kawasaki Ninja H2 and Z H2, Yamaha VMAX, if you want to die on the road (joking) Or for allrounders : BMW S1000XR, KTM Super Duke GT, Ducati Multistrada Grand Tour, Honda Africa Twin Sports Adventure ES DCT (electronic suspension). But these allrounders cost more money. Good luck finding the ride you like.

Hi, could you do a video about the best performance on specific mileage of engine oil? This question has confused me for many years, I feel like the engine would always perform better after few hundreds of mileage than just changing new motor oil. Some of our local racers also agree with the opinion, they sometimes run the motor oil to specific mileage and breed it out for stocking, keep it till the track day and reuse the oil again for best engine performance. My question is "why the engine won't perform best when the oil is new? what makes it performed better after a few hundreds of mileage of engine running?". Thank you very much for reading my question.
