BMW reviews

A short adventure dual sport. Runs on any gas will go anywhere. It has switchable abs from a 2007 and EFI. It not the fastest dual sport or the slowest but it is fun. The heated grips and adjustable suspension make this bike super easy to tour with. Get about 50 to 60 mpg and that going at 70mph. It tops out at around 90mph. But loves to sit at 60 to 70mph. Would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable daul sport Show less

Only rode the bike twice it has been kept on my showroom floor inside my facility. Practically brand new. This is a great deal! New owner will appreciate the top notch condition at the price and low miles. Show less

Love this adventure bike for it’s nimbleness, reliability, comfort, and style! I especially love that the seat is low for people with short legs and that the gas tank is under the seat and bringing the center of gravity lower. Show less

This review for 2006 BMW K 1200 R . The drop down menu does not have my model. The motorcycle has been been own by me for the last 15 years. Beside regular maintenance such as motor oil, driveshaft fluid , and tire changes , the only repairs it needed were the valve cover gasket , and driveshaft cover gasket replacement. I suspect these items were worn due to relative low usage in the last few years. The rubbers got less flexible and start leaking oil. Overall, I would describe the bike reliability and quality as very good. The bike riding takes time to get used too due to duolover front suspension. The bike does not do a "nose" diving when braking. Initially, its feels strange but after a while you get used too it and it is actually feels great. The engine power is endless. The bike handling is great. It takes some skill to get into corner with it, however at the corner it fells stable and even mid corner breaking does not affect bike handling. Breaks are top notch, the only thing that the front break gets squeaky sometimes. The riding position is comfortable overall. However , at go and stop traffic it gets somehow tiresome. Show less

I have ridden this motorcycle all over the western US, Canada, and Alaska. It is a great touring bike and great off road. It has been an extremely reliable bike. It has great features, with included Garmin GPS. Show less

This is the pinnacle of sport touring motorcycles. It is the second BMW I've owned and I like it better than the two Harleys, the Moto Guzi, and the Japanese bikes I've owned. I use it as my daily drive because its comfortable, gets through traffic, and easy to park. I can fit a decent amount of groceries, work materials, etc in the locking, waterproof saddlebags. Its so fun to ride that I don't mind the commute. My wife loves to sit behind me and go for long trips. Its comfortable around town as well as on long trips. Its the preferred motorcycle for the police because of its performance and durability. The only downside is the modifications are expensive. The factory seat is terribly uncomfortable and the windscreen isn't large enough for long trips. You have to buy cylinder head protectors for the boxer engine because if the bike falls, it falls on the engine cylinder heads. Once you have the seat, windscreen, and engine protection you like, this bike will easily last over 75K miles. BMW wants you to service it every 6K miles, but the oil changes are easy and many owners service the bike themselves. You will never regret owning a BMW R1200RT. Show less

I have three road bikes in my garage all are ridden thousands of miles a year. The BMW R1200 RT is my go to ride for those long days in the saddle. Fuel milage is controlled at your wrist. I can get 240 miles per tank or 190 miles. it is all about speed This platform has never failed me, i have ridden with HD motorcycles from east coast to west coast and almost north, Niagra Falls to Virginia w/o fail. Also the associated costs ie insurance are reasonable. Show less

The 2016 BMW R1200 GS has been my favorite motorcycle and I've owned more than 40 motorcycles. It's light, nimble and just plain fun to ride. It's never given me any trouble and the maintenance is simpler than most of my bikes. Show less

I have been riding my BMW motorcycle for the past few years. I love how the lightweight and nimble it is for city traffic. The torque is strong and its fun to ride. I have always been getting compliments every time i ride it. This is a unique experience and not for everyday use, its a powerful ride, an I mostly used it on the weekends. All the services are up to date including oil changes and maintenance. This is a great value for the price. Come and see it for yourself! Show less

Extreme Comfort, great technology, amazing power, surprising cornering, Best motorcycle I've ever owned. Great fuel mileage. With folding armrests for the passenger, I have had them fall asleep with the great suspension which can be electronically adjusted.. Show less
