                  Based on 120 kms riding experience
                  Very comfortable for 6 feet tall riders, the triangle positioning is rightly placed. The weight ratio and angle of view is perfectly balanced forthe riders who are experienced. Acceleration and not being jerky on gear shifts are the vital contributors to the riding experience as well as overtaking with such a wide and heavy bike also feels confident and under control.

                  The overall the bike has
                  The bike provides excellent comfort overall, thanks to the impressive engineering of BMW, in which they have balanced the bike so well that you don't feel its weight on the move, the looks and the street presents may intermediate but once on the saddle it's is very friendly . The Marshall speakers offer decent bass and surprising loudness, which is particularly impressive given the condition of India's roads. The sound quality is clear, with great vocals and music. The 10.2-inch infotainment screen provides a high level of detail and clarity. However, the bike does have a few disadvantages when it comes to maneuvering in city traffic and making u-turns. Nevertheless, having a reverse gear on a bike weighing over 300kg is a great advantage, and we have. Chears to BMW for such a bike.
