BMW S 1000 XR test ride 

Every bike has its nuances to the experienced rider....which is why we have more than one motorcycle 🏍 awesone review. The xr is a finely crafted german engineered machine... and a pleasure to own.

Finally a review that focuses on the most imporant aspects of considering a new purchase. Love your honesty. Thank you a lot for this video

I have same noise with my endurance chain in S1000XR 2022, I thought it might be the central stand but I figured it's the chain instead. Great review bro!

I had the Gen 2 and the moment the gain is a little lose the slap happened, now owning the Gen 3 with high performance chain and no far no issues 😊

Vidim cesta mi poznata, kad od jednom skužim da je video snimljen u Zagrebu. Koje iznaneđenje. S1000XR najvjerovatnije moj sljedeći bike.

I just took delivery of a new 2024 Gravity Blue XR. I have about 100 miles on it so far, no chain slap or banging over bumps like your experience.

Hi love the video. 700 miles on my 24 XR and yes and chain slap noise over rough /bumps more noticeable when slowing down ( I suppose less noise from the engine then ) or could the guy have a point ref front brake pad click. slight engine vibration more of a buzzzzz from the 4 cyl but already a lot less after 700 miles went for the M raised comfort seat very good it is on the firm side but still good and you don’t slide into the tank such an amazing bike Ash

Throttle took some getting used to but once you get used to the bikes characteristics its bearly noticeable. For me at least

On my 22 XR it happens when going over bumps but the sound is more like the centre stand than the chain. Happens so infrequently that im not too bothered.

Its the centre stand thats making the knocking sound not the chain👍

Drago mi je da vidim ZG, poseticu ga za mesec i po dana. Odlican review, tacno je sve sto je receno. Taj udarac je najverovatnije od centralne nogare koja klepece pri udarcu, desi se i kod mene ponekad, mozda je na nekim modelima opruga malo slabija pa se cesce desava. Od skoro sam vlasnik XR 2023, odlican motor ali sediste ne mogu da svarim kako su tako lose napravili. Probao sam da stavim M sediste od 2024. modela i iako ne pashe, moze se na silu nabiti. Bolje je dosta ali daleko od savrsenog, a i ovde u Kanadi je $1200. Ne znam sta raditi, ali moram resiti problem ako zelim na dalja putovanja.

BTW, I also have a 1250 GSA and traded a 1250R for this XR. The twin has a huge amount of torque, instant throttle response, the inline four will not.

I bought a new XR in 2022. Chain slap from the first day riding. I searched for other reasons for the noice over small bumps but ended up with the chain. I tried to adjust but still the same. Also after service at the dealership. I also have to say the mechanical noice from the engine, especially when cold is annoying.

Hey it’s this color an original color from the dealer ? I thought they do them only in blue, white , and the m colors Regards Good job 👍🏻

The low speed throttle response lag is because some genius in the EU has decided that there needs to be a a small amount of throttle twist slack in new bikes. I will ask about the vibration- is it still there in seat, bars or foot-pegs?

I still don't 👀 the 2024 Black Metallic ⚫️ version in the 🇺🇲.

Same metal sounds on brand new xr 2024, i think this is breake pads from front and or small tool set under seat.

Maybe the centre stand not the chain.
