      @K Agree with you K. I'm also waiting out for the 2019 version but as we are now in July I don't know if BMW will indeed push out the new/revised version. I hope they do.

    Very good review, thank you very much. After 15000km with an S1000R, I can only say that it is a very versatile motorcycle, without highlighting in anything.... My Tuono v4 1100 factory MY 2018, isen´t for sure so polivalent, but when when I get off the bike I have a smile from ear to ear...and that's what I was looking for in a motorbike

    I would have loved the lower weight of the S1000R, but I decided to go with the XR due to wanting a taller windscreen to protect from wind/bugs; both excellent bikes.

    • @AlbesADV

    • @TSOL_in_LOS
      @TSOL_in_LOS 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Would have been nice if you did some hard pulls with it so we could hear that exhaust. Maybe you don't want the shop to think your beating their bike? Maybe still in break in process?

    • @AlbesADV
      @AlbesADV  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Was still in the break in period, only 200 miles on the clock, the shop has no problem with me open it up as long as it's not on the break in period. It still sounded pretty good at low RPM but my mic. Didn't quite pick it up.

    • @TSOL_in_LOS
      @TSOL_in_LOS 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Albe's Adv anyway to add an additional mic on the tail for specific exhaust notes? Thanks

    I went out today to buy this bike, and ended up with the 40th Anniversary GS. After my 700GS, I just couldnt find love for the ergonomics. The speed I ABSOLUTELY LOVED, but I'm 56 now, so I chose comfort over speed. Sad, I know lol

    I've seen this video now. 2 years later. One fact: the official power since 2014 is 160 hp, the inofficial power since 2014 is nearly 170 hp.
    The 2017 and 2018 S 1000 R has not more power. BMW has only to declare the power is 165 hp - without searching for more power.
    The job from BMW was only, to save the power for Euro 4. A very clever strategy...

    how would you compare the Bmw to the Tuono? I find the Bmw super boring to drive.

    • @AlbesADV
      @AlbesADV  6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      The BMW is close to perfect and 165 hp are rarely boring, but we drive motorcycles for thrills and perfection not always take us there, that means that to get there with the s1000r you really need to push while the Tuono with its little imperfections here and there gets you there in a hurry, besides that v4 is intoxicating, in a good way.

    • @petermurphy75able
      @petermurphy75able 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I've had both and the s1000r is better. The Tuono is a good bike but I had lots of reliability issues with my 2015 model that you just don't get with BMW. The S1000r is everything a bike like this should be.

    Only 165hp.... Lol... What's your opinion this or a 2018 triumph Street triple? I currently ride a GSXR-750 and looking for something a bit more versatile. I ride the street as well as the track.

    • @AlbesADV
      @AlbesADV  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I think the BMW is a little better on the track than the triumph, but I like the way the triumph looks way better than the BMW, I was thorn between them as well, then I ended up buying an Aprilia Tuono

    • @AlbesADV
      @AlbesADV  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      First thing I would do is check if the wheels are correctly balanced (maybe you lost the sticking weights) then check if the wheels are aligned. Otherwise try stiffening the suspension. Sorry but is really difficult to diagnose something without feeling it
