BMW F900XR Your questions answered
+ Ninja 1000SX & GSX-S1000F tested
Based on the F850GS, it was interesting to see how BMW’s all-rounder would perform. Could a re-hashed adventure bike really be more than the sum of its borrowed parts and challenge Yamaha’s Tracer 900? And from just £9825, would the expected BMW ‘premium’ feel be intact? The answer to both is a definite yes. Riding the new F900XR at its launch and doing hundreds of (pre-lockdown) UK miles showed it to be fabulously agile, easy to ride, high quality and amazingly rounded. And performing so well in tests has lead to a stream of questions from readers, so it’s time to answer the biggest ones...
