And the obvious comparison - how does it fare against the V-Strom? Ie: power and torque delivery, weight and balance? The Strom is a tall bike. Is the 900 talk as well? And what goes in where those two blanket plates are above the dash?
Feels like so much more grunt than the Vstrom (but 6hp more, 10nm less torque and 13kg lighter), it's also a tall bike. I was flat footed at 179cm but only just and the enduro version is taller again as the bike will sit higher in the stroke. Balance is much better too. There's not much to dislike about the bike.
@@THENKDRCR since seeing this vid, a few reviews of the bike have popped up in my YT feed. I wonder if the missus would agree to me having two bikes....
I saw another in the wild. It was the first thing I checked, and it seemed fine, so I'm guessing this one was just an issue with the dealer assembly. Mine arrives in 44 days, but who's counting 🤣

The BMW 900 looks like a rebadged Voge Valico DS900X, they are both made by the same people.
Your video was useful to understand about this bike 👍🏼
@amanandhistiger3278 thanks mate 👍
Looks like the forks are twisted in the yoke.Non issue,just straighten.
I think that was the issue, after seeing another F9GS in the flesh, it was the first thing I checked 👌
