Good, but not cheap
So you can imagine enjoying day trips or the ferries of everyday life on normal routes with the BMW G 310 GS. For the big tour she is rather too unrelaxed. BMW is calling for around 6,050 euros for this model. The question then arises as to who should buy this. Sure, it is suitable for beginners qua law. But as a pure beginner bike a bit expensive.
BMW's 310 series has clear qualities. If you can do without the rather limited touring ability anyway, you should take a look at the already mentioned G 310: Here you can save another 700 Euros.
The test bike was provided to us by Bergmann and Söhne in Pinneberg near Hamburg.
Conclusion - it continues
Children as time passes. Barely eleven years old and you can sort a motorcycle in good conscience into the non-existent category "Classic Sports Tourer". In the 0-100 km/h test she turned around nicely at the back, modern bikers are no longer used to the absence of a traction control.
Here you still drive yourself beautifully. If you are looking for something like this, you can strike here. The Honda CBF 1000 comes with fresh inspection and also the wear parts are not yet ... Well, yes... Worn. Thanks to the quality, it should bring joy to its new owner for a long time to come.
