yes donkeys stand out also doesn't mean they are pretty unless u are a dragon.

Too heavy, too expensive and overkill for our roads. Makes sense for western markets. In india its more of a status symbol than a genuine need. 99% of owners go out on weekend breakfast rides on these bikes which are meant to be used for "adventure". Very few people use it for what its made for. Anyway, if you have money to spare, why not. Im very impressed by the weight loss and the 900 looks so much better than their 850.

[@powerdriftofficial]

It sells quite well in India btw

Varun, How does it compare with the Tiger 1200 or even the 900 variants (factoring in the price difference with capabilities)?

[@powerdriftofficial]

Glad to help!

[@srk_mithipati]

What about the other models of the GS 900, 850, 800, and 750. Big and bulky vs lean and agile. 1300 Is just an overkill for most.

Still present! The 1300 is a flagship

Headlights to me looks funny😂although it is subjective. I would rather prefer the mighty japanese giant "Honda Africa twin" over this german beast. There is hell lot of electronic feature which makes the bike so very complex & complicated & at the same time sophisticated too. Africa twin's instrument cluster is a touchscreen unit

[@AjitPawar7]

At 20L this is a steal! Can't believe I'd ever say this but great job on the pricing BMW! I'm just getting started on Adv bikes and learning a lot on my 390 Adv but I know now that this is the category of bikes for me. I wish to own this holy grail of adv bikes one day. Also Varun if you get this is Pune then take it to sadashiv peth, laxmi road and dagdusheth 😅 it would look so out of place there and it would be hilarious to see everyones reaction on this large machine.

[@powerdriftofficial]

Yeah! The 20L bit is a surprise

[@vivejk4443]

Wait till they add road tax and accessory packages. This bike will easily cost 30L

Telle something like a scrambler or off roader like crf300 which can be afforded.. Where on earth will u take all this bulk and stress unless u r doing a cross country. It doesn't do justice to buy it for statement and take it for breakfast or 600kms ride 😊😊
