    Hallo und herzlichen Glückwunsch! Ich kann deine Argumente nachvollziehen, bleibe aber trotzdem bei meinem X-ADV. Den habe ich mir als 2019er Modell mit gerade mal 150 km vor 8 Wochen gekauft und bin, vor allem nach dem letzten Wochenende im Harz, total begeistern. Die Honda hat jetzt 2000 km runter. Ich habe noch kein Gerät gefahren, welches so sicher, so schnell und mit so viel Schräglage um die Kurven fliegt. Dabei bleibt der Verbrauch unter 4 Liter. Das Optimierungspotenzial bei meinem Modell ist ja bekannt. Machen lassen, muss ich noch die Sitzbank. Da sind 400 km und 6 oder 7 h im Sattel eine Tortour. Für 40 andere Biker mit zum Großteil viel stärkeren Maschinen (Ducati, BMW, KTM) war es jedenfalls eine Überraschung, was das Ding alles kann und zum Glück gab es es mehr kurvige Passagen als lange Geraden. Ich freue mich jedenfalls auf weitere Touren mit der X-ADV im nächsten Jahr. Dieses Jahr müssen noch ein, zwei andere Mopeds bewegt werden. Ach ja, die Tunneltasche. Bei 30 Grad draußen und strammer Fahrt wird es dadrin gefühlte 40 Grad. Alles was da drin transportiert wird, sollte das abkönnen.
    Viel Spaß mit der BMW und mach weiter mit deinen Videos.

    I have several BMW’s well three different model GS but last year bought a C400GT and love it. Although I love riding the GS the C400 probably gets more use than the rest. It rides really well, my wife goes on the pillion and finds it really comfortable as well even at Highway speeds that it manages easily. I bought mine used two years old but with only 390 miles (627km) and looked like new. Even though I’m very happy with this one my local BMW dealer has a new one and am thinking about selling this one and getting the newer version. After watching you videos last year, the other channel I bought the Shad expandable top case and find this really useful for keeping our helmets or getting some shopping. Look forward to seeing your next trip👍

I don’t do any work myself just get serviced at the local BMW dealer. I have a friend who has the C650GT with about 50k, does all his own servicing and has not had any problems so far.

      It depends on what you want. The X-ADV is the scooter + motorcycle replacement. Its perfect for that. If you need a full on scooter or a full motorcycle then it might not be for you. The big plus for me is offroading which is a lot of fun with it.

    Im thinking of an X-ADV to replace my Africa Twin. I've had the Twin for several years and use it nearly every day. I've done Alpine trails and long road trips and its been fantastic. Problem is i mostly use it as a daily ride to work which is all short urban journeys. I'm trail riding a lot less. I'm riding with my wife a lot more and I think the X-ADV would be a better choice for the majority of my riding. I've tested an ATAS with the dct and loved that. Choices, choices...

    Hello, I did sale my X-ADV 750 3 days ago for exactly the same reason : its weight ! I am sad to have sold it (although after having owned it for 2 years) because it’s really a fantastic motorbike but, age coming (I am 73 now) I had to be more than careful at low speed in the traffic.
    The day after the sale I bought a ADV 350 which is 50 kgs less and I can ride it the same way as a bike. Of course the difference is huge, but I am now more relax and comfortable, time will help me to forget 😎

    The biggest error about the Honda X-ADV 750 is, that most people think that it is "half a scooter, half a motorcycle". Big Foot rests, a small space where normally the tank is and some storage place under the sattle, does not make it a scooter. A Harley Electra Glide has the same amount of scooter attributes as the Honda has. The "Swiss Army knife"X-ADV replaced my Africa Twin and Electra Glide and I never had that much motorcycle fun in over 40 years and now 75.000 km. Yeah it is heavy for 55 Horsepowers but still 140 kg lighter than the Harley, and yeah it is absolutely great for that kind of legal German Offroading ;-)
    Anyway I understand your position as a scooter man.

    Hallo ScooVenture, ich bin ein neuer Follower aus Belgien und fahre die diesjährige Honda Forza 350. Ich stimme Ihnen voll und ganz zu, dass die 750er Forza Modelle ziemlich schwer sind. Sie sind fast besser dran, wenn Sie eine Africa Twin kaufen. Die meisten Kilometer, die ich fahre, sind immer Landstraßen und Nebenstraßen und da ist meine 350er Forza mehr als zufriedenstellend, leicht im Handling, ganz zu schweigen vom Kraftstoffverbrauch. Sie geben ab Werk einen Durchschnittsverbrauch von 3,3 bis 3,4 pro 100 km an, bei meinem Fahrstil komme ich auf 2,6 pro, wenn ich gemütlich auf den kleinen Landstraßen fahre. Glückwunsch zu deinem neuen BMW, übrigens eine gute Wahl 👍 und ich freue mich auf die kommenden Videos. Grüße Erwin

    Yikes! 18000 euro that was a lot of money for something that is not giving you what you want. I am glad you have found the machine for you. I came to the XADV from a traditional motorcycle background so it gives me the motorcycle feeling with the comfort of a scooter (now I am getting older). Having tried many scooters and as my wife is the pillion she also had a say in what was purchased and the XADV was found to be the most comfortable, so that was that! Enjoy your riding.

    I (aged 63) tested the honda NC750X, the X-ADV, the Forza 750 and the NT1100 DTC in one day with my wife as a passenger (aged 67) at an expo. The most comfortable was the Forza 750 for me and my wife. But the most efficient was the NT1100. When accelerating the NT1100 felt vibrations. Not at all with the 750s. Honda's pricing policy is sometimes strange because the full option X-ADV costs the same as the NT1100. I had an Africa Twin DCT 1000cc for two years, but it was too high for my wife and too abrupt for me during acceleration. The DCT sometimes dared to chock during acceleration. The NT1100, on the other hand, is much smoother when accelerating. On the X-ADV there, the seat was thinner and the passenger footpegs were way too high than on the Forza. This is because the Forza 750 has a lower exhaust. Regardless of the Forza's thicker seat, the scooter is lower than the X-ADV. Which probably gives the feeling of more comfort but also more stability. It is a pity that BMW no longer has a 650 cc scooter in its range. The 400cc is certainly a nice scooter but a class too light for me. Enjoy your new acquisition.

    This made me recall when I sold my brand new BMW GSA 1250 after 6 months, the bike is 200% fantastic but I had no good feeling ridding it but scary just because it is bulky. Then I bought HD Pan America 1250 which I loved it as I have been ridding HD for more than 20 some years.

    I can completely understand your decision. I've lived in Germany for 9 years and if you really don't go off-road you don't need a bike like X-ADV. On the other hand, in Croatia, the roads are not as nearly as good as they are in Germany, especially in the cities, and this is one of the main reasons I will get the Honda, it's a perfect commuter for me personally, except the price, which is really high and a reason for me to go slightly used.

      Probaste la Voge sr4max? Es como la BMW C400x, pero más barata y con más espacio debajo del asiento.
      Y la beverly 400? Yo tengo la beverly 350 y estoy muy contento. No sé si cambiarla por la beverly 400 o por la voge sr4max.

    The question would be " didnt you imagine that all those accessories could make heavier your xadv? I mean, what did you expect with almost 30kg extra? Did you consider to remove things that you claimed to not be necessary?For me weight is not a big deal, if you stay vanilla as i prefer. I don't go off-road neither but i love the possibility to push a bit more and i like to have more bullet in a gun when i go for an adventure trip, even if it is planned to be zero-off road.
    By the way, c400 is a great scooter and if you enjoy it, if you ride it happy and relaxed, i am glad for you and i wish you a safe and joyfull driving. Congratulations for you new bike

    But the storage under the seat for the BMW is somewhat misleading. With the under seat storage in the flex position you cannot start the scooter as it needs to be up or else it will rub against the rear tire. Am I wrong about that?

Für mich passt der Honda X-ADV sehr gut. Hatte ich vorher doch eine Harley Road-King gefahren, die war 100 kg schwerer🙂 Bin mitlerweile 71 Jahre und suchte etwas leichteres und wegen meinen Knien, ist die Honda ideal. Auch von der Leistung, weil ich mit Freunden und Kollegen auf Touren fahre, da komme ich gut mit. Weiterhin gute Fahrt auf der BMW! Liebe Grüsse aus der Schweiz.

Then after buying you still bought alot of acceossries. And you want comfort. Bmw scooter is best for you. Looks boring! X adv looks alot better. But for practically on your situation then I can see why you chose bmw scooter.
