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.

Elegant and fast
And so we have it: The Triumph Tiger 900 Rally Pro is an incredibly smooth motorcycle. She's cool, very confident. And it also has a penchant for details: the side stand is made of high-quality aluminium. No one has ever thought about how valuable a side stand can be, but it's stylish.
Ups - Grace, Pace and Style. Fits easily.
