2024 BMW F900 GS • First Dates

[@Adventure_blac]

I’m 5’7 but with a 30” inseam. I find very manageable still. That initial run through/spec commentary was spot on. All the info needed. Also thanks for clearing up that the enduro pro suspension doesn’t get taller. Other reviewers have been saying it increases travel. But I could find any literature saying so.

I always look forward to your reviews. It amazes me how much you can capture in such a short test ride. My review would comprise of "This one's white, and i like it" 😂

[@RikkyTang]

Thanks mate, well it's a case of having to! I get a bike for one or two hours - three hours if I'm lucky. If I want to make a reasonable video I have to figure shizzle out double quick!! It does mean that sometimes my first impressions have to change if I get another chance to ride a bike but anyway, I do what I can. Thanks for watching 😁

[@JustTheWayItIs-Carl]

It’s a nice looking bike 👍. Nice detailed review, is it something you are interested in 🤞 And you’re very close to 4K… ❤ Best wishes Carl

I found it to vibrate a lot. A lot more than other similar bikes. At 5000rpm the rear mirrors was just a blur.

[@chrisbarnes9260]

Great review thanks Ricky 😊

[@RikkyTang]

Thank you Chris 👍

[@simonhousam1989]

Hi Ricky you mentioned the handbar vibration was it bad or just a fleeting experience.

[@kjetilros]

Compared to my Tenere the bmw vibrates a lot

[@loftysaltmarsh69]

Looks like top gear is shorter. It’s definitely revving higher at 70 than my old 850.

[@RikkyTang]

Nice observation 👍 Thanks for commenting! Might have look into the final drive gearing for both bikes

[@sudhinkumars7940]

Hi mate, is it vienna?

[@RikkyTang]

Do you mean the location? No this is the UK

[@dvdh4937]

Quick shifter? its relax motorcycling...no need for the hurry shifter, its not a race....

[@RikkyTang]

It's funny that I have another comment with different opinion to yours about using the quick shifter. The thing is I'm testing the bike to give other people an feeling of how it rides, so I will ride with and without the q/s to describe how the bike behaves in both situations.

[@captainbarnicle8548]

Stop using the clutch mate. It has a quick shifter! You only need it taking off and coming to a complete stop.

[@RikkyTang]

Another comment is saying the opposite thing to you about using the quick shifter... The point here though is that I'm testing the bike so I will ride it with and without using the q/s to explain to the viewers how it feels. Having said that, if I own a bike that has a quick shifter, sometimes I'll still use the clutch just because I enjoy it! Some bikes haven't got a good q/s and it's ofen better to use the clutch anyway, like my 390 Adventure for example.
