- BEST Naked Bike Ever!?
In the commuter category,
The F900R’s riding position is very upright and comfortable, and the seat is very cushiony. your feet are positioned straight down and your arms are at chest level. This earns the F900R a 9 out of 10 in riding comfort.
In the fuel range/ features, the F900R has a 3.4 Gallon tank and gets about 40 miles per gallon, giving it roughly 150 miles of range per tank. In comparison, the Kawasaki Z900 has an additional 1 Gallon capacity and the same MPG making it go farther on the same tank but also weighs slightly more. The BMW comes with a great segmented fuel gauge which is typical of naked bikes these days. this earns the F900R an 8 out of 10 in the fuel range/ features
As far as the commute-specific tech goes, the F900R comes with a 6.5 inch TFT screen with phone connectivity allowing you to pair your phone for navigation and media use. It has cruise control and quick-shifter both up and down, riding modes so when the weather changes during your commute, you can simply switch the mode and ride comfortably. It comes with grip heaters and is equipped with keyless functions. It has intelligent ABS making your rides extra safe. It's a very well-equipped bike which earns it a solid 10 out of 10 in the commute-specific tech and features.
Storage is little, typical of many other modern naked bikes. Gets a 1 out of 10. You would definitely need to bring along that backpack.
A good commuter bike should be cost-effective, reliable, and have a strong dealership network. The bike I reviewed with its packages costs roughly $12K MSRP, which is average for a naked bike. I believe it is the best bang for your buck kinda bike. BMW bikes are pretty reliable and you can tell that from their strong resale value. Number of BMW dealers is far fewer than its Japanese rivals, and it is more inline with the number of Italian manufacturer dealers. The F900R gets a 7 out of 10 in affordability, reliability and dealer support.
For a pretty good total score of 35 out of 50 points for the commuter category.
Now onto the Performance/Dope Factor Category.
In the race riding position category, The F900R can be used both as a race machine and a road machine. it sits you comfortably, but it can also be an agile bike if you just hold on to the bike a little tighter. Definitely not a super-sport level of aggressive riding position, but can get the job done. This earns the F900R a 5 out of 10 in the race riding position.
The horsepower- slash-torque figures are sub-average for a naked bike in this CC category. The Z900 from Kawasaki makes about 15 more horsepower and torque. This makes your transition from a smaller displacement naked bike more smoothly, but it isnt as capable as rivals. The torque on this bike is 67 pounds-feet and has around 80 to the rear wheel horsepower earning the F900R a 3 out of 10. Some of you were wondering how I calculate the Rear-wheel Horsepower/torque category score. I simply add up the horsepower and torque numbers and divide the sum by 2 which gets me the Horsepower/Torque average. If the average is 0 to 25, it gets a 1, 26-50 gets a 2, and so on and so forth.
As for the weight, the F900R is slightly lighter than its rivals at around 465 pounds wet. Since my score considers a 375 lb or lighter bike a 10 out of 10, and every increment of 25 lbs. deduct a score, the F900R at 465 pounds gets a 6 out of 10 in the weight category.
Regarding the race-track oriented rider aid’s feature, you get ABS pro with Brembo brake calipers, race configured TFT display with lap timer when you switch into the race mode, engine brake control, traction control, and launch control. This gets the F900R a 10 out of 10.
As for the design choices and marketplace, it’s got a modest look yet handsome, quality parts and BMW’s reputation. The market place I’d say is above Japanese rivals, but slightly below Italian naked bikes like the Ducati streetfighter and MV Agusta dragster. This earns the F900R an 8 out of 10 for the overall design and marketplace.
This gives the 2023 BMW F900R a total score of 32 out of 50 in the Performance/Dope Factor Category.

This is the best review on the F900R I've seen on youtube 👏
Thanks for watching!
Best review, thanks! 🫡👌
Thanks for watching!
Great review!
Thanks for watching!
I bought my 2023 for $9,400 with the additional parts 6 year warranty. Love the bike so far; it’s much quicker than I would’ve imagined, and I love that it’s not made in Taiwan 😂
I'm interested in buying an f900r but I heard the engine is made in China or taiwan.. does the motorcycle have a placard saying where it was built?
What bike should I review next? Leave your bike suggestions below!
In my opinion, the f900r is a good beginner motorcycle...its very humble, not jumpy and smooth.
Daug Demuro of motorcycles
Hey guys. This motorcycle has been on my shortlist for a while now. For the ones already having this model, I only have one question which I could not find an exact answer to: If you connect your phone to the screen, are you able to pull the maps/navigation on the bike screen? (I see people mentioning it in the videos, but never seen them showing if it works properly)
I would love to have this as my second bike!!
It’s definitely one of the best naked bikes I have tested (evident from my Emi score)
Everywhere except the US, including Canada, this bike is rated at 105hp. Something about fuel ratings.
I have noticed! Some comments tell me my Hp numbers are inaccurate even though I get them from BMW USA website. Has to be something about emissions perhaps restricting the bike.
سلام خیلی از اجرای شما لذت میبرم. ای کاش اطلاعات کلی و اصلی مثل توان، گشتاور، حجم موتور، قیمت و حداکثر سرعت رو روی صفحه نمایش بدی.
Will add the requested features to future videos! Thanks for watching
Is the quick shifter clunky? I have seen some reviews of the 2021/2022 models that said it was really clunky compared to the competition. I'm hoping they have improved it.
It’s not as smooth as Kawasaki for example, but it gets the job done.
I have a -22 f900r and it’s really clunky, especially at low gears and low revs. Compared to the mt09 quickshifter which is butter smooth.
@@PleniKreti-jd4kf Do you ever get false neutrals or anything like that?
I have a 2021 with 6k miles. The quick shifter was very clunky in first and second. After my 1 year service I had it adjusted and now it as smooth as any quick shifter.
عماد جان bmw رو خیلی نیستم با اینکه خیلی فنسی و پنسی هست و کلی امکانات داره مگر پرچرم داراشون .من ترجیحم هنوندا هورنت هست
Unfortunately the Hornet is not in the US Market. We have the MT07, MT09, and MT10
13L tank bit daft.
True, not really a touring bike though.
