If you overlook this, getting around with the BMW is a very enjoyable hobby. Let it be with the hustle and bustle, the appropriate movement of the BMW automatically leads to a flowing driving style, without corners or edges. The faster you drive, the more steering momentum would be needed, so at some point you let it be easy – well.
Compared to the competition, the BMW convinces with its bullish start and the gnarled, authentic nature. She is equal with the consistency of her design as well as the crisp sound and loving details. Although the comfort on long distances may not be the best, you are well dressed with the BMW everywhere.
Although the BMW nineT Scrambler is actually 1,900 euros cheaper than its heritage sister, who would have thought that, you shouldn't do without an extra: The beautiful spoke wheels (395 euros) are excellent. BMW was the last to ride the Scrambler wave for the time being, but with a convincing model.
Was there anything else? Oh yes, the off-road suitability. Oh no, there was nothing – just like the Scrambler models of the competition.

First class means that the British primarily mean high driving comfort. And first-class attachments such as the sensible extras or very powerful brakes. If you understand that, the tigers open up all the better. It's not suitable for best times, but who is?
Travel instead of racing. This is not even written down, but a clear recommendation. Whose riding style tends more in the direction of calm and fluid, can buy a bike tailored to him or her. By the way: The tigers are also suitable for short-legged ones thanks to the adjustable seat height, only weak-breasted the interested parties may not be – 271 kilos is not subject to entertainment tax as I said.
However, a test drive is still necessary, because there is something that Dietmar and I could not agree on: He – rather short upper body - found the windshield to be great, I – rather long torso – as not working. Once again it turns out that there is no one, the good wind protection for all despite electrically adjustable disc.
