Scott, I really enjoy your no-nonsense approach to bike reviews. It’s not so journalistic in nature, covering specs and features like a bike launch, but more of a “real-rider” review with aspects regular riders care about. This approach mixed with a bit of light cynical humor makes for a delightful viewing experience. Thanks for what you do, sir!

I just picked up a 2024 S1000XR in this exact spec, Gravity Blue TE. And OMG what a bike! Coming from super/hypernakeds like MT-10 SP and KTM SuperDuke i’m amazed at this bikes capabilities. I think it’s going to be a happy ownership experience.
@aluisious
@aluisious Ай бұрын
Years back I was eyeing the SuperDuke, but I test rode one and was not happy with how badly the engine stumbled under 4k RPM. IMO, an engine that is only smooth over a range of speed that's 2x (from 4k to 8k RPM) is not really useful. I ended up getting a 2016 Multistrada, the bike that inspired the XR, for the smoother and more usable engine, better suspension, and touring/passenger capability. It has almost all of the same gutpunch of torque the Superduke had, but more versatile and comfortable.

At least in the US, BMW bikes have a best-in-class 3-year warranty, which is important and valuable. Fully spec'ed, the XR has TPMS, which I find to be a very important feature. The XR paniers and top box system are top notch. I rent the XR when I go on Euro tours and I love how it all works. I'm not sure about the GX.

Nice comparison Scott. I considered the Suzuki before chopping in my 2022 XR for a new 2024 XR. I must say the 2024 has been improved subtly across the board. It’s smoother, has better fuelling at low speed and the seat is more comfortable over the 2022. I’m sure as you say the Suzuki will come down in price over time and also improve with feedback and development. 👍

I’ve had lots of BMWs over the years with very little trouble. My 2022 XR had a sticking indicator switch when I pulled it out of the garage after winter but that was quickly fixed under warranty. I did 10k miles on it with no other issues. I’d recommend the XR no question. Only had a couple of Suzukis (sv650 and a Busa) both reliable but reckon the build quality of BMW is superior not to mention the better resale value.

Late to the party. Never buy the inline 4 from BMW if you plan to keep the bike more the. 2 yrs. My XR had two cam replacements and a valve broke and imploded the cylinder. I am going with the Suzuki GX or the BMW R1000 R or RS. I owned the RnineT and had zero problems. Both replacement cams took 6-12 months to deliver and install. BMW had zero stock due to many cam issues with their inline 4s. I ‘ve owned 8 Japanese motorcycles and never had major engine issues.

The dealer price difference is a lot more than the 2k where I'm at already, Midwest USA. I'm currently cross shopping the two but my price delta is 6k, USD. The GSX is 16k before taxes and the XR is 22K before taxes. Is the BMW worth $6,000 more? I'm guessing not, if the 2k difference is so close, but this review has been the most helpful for comparison.

I traded my 23 S1000XR for a 24 S1300GS. XR is an incredible bike, but the buzz at 80mph (interstate riding in the US) made the mirrors useless. Also, cruising in 6th, the RPMs were just a little too high & frantic for me. I've never liked the looks of a boxer motor, but talk about endless low-down grunt. I took one test-drive on the 1300GS and was convinced. It's actually smoother and not even trying hard at 80mph. For sportier back roads, the XRs brakes and shifting are much better. For 2-up short trips, the GS is king w/ adaptive cruise control, ride height, blind spot monitoring, and rear pre-load. My wife prefers the GS... but, it did cost $6k more!

Presumably that luggage cost includes the panniers and topcase you cannot get, even as an option on the GX? Along with many more included extras, the actual price difference is much smaller. Plus the low suspension option and a wide range of seats and a ton of accessories. The XR is an evolution in its third generation. The GX is new and they haven’t thought the bike out properly yet. It has a lot to catch up. I know what I’d buy, every day of the week.

Checking at launch and still on the Suzuki site it is £14799 not including luggage (£1390) or heated grips (£300) or centre stand (£470). Seems despite it only just being launched they’re already throwing it all in with the + version and dealers are already discounting further. This is what got Suzuki into to dire financial trouble 15 years ago. Fast forward a year or two and I suspect they will be struggling to give them away.

@MH-xd2nd Never got of their website. Dealers. Like my local one have them in at £13,199, with panniers, 13,999. Heated grips thrown in for free. Ultimately, it's personal preference. A used 2023 XR TE with say 3k miles is around 13-14k and cones with 2 year warranty, a brand new GX is the same but had 7 year warranty.. If you keep your bikes for 2 years and then change, go bmw. If you want it longer term, then the GX..

Thanks for the comparison Scott. Also worth mentioning is that the Suzuki does not have a factory top-box as an option. This, and that fact that the Suzuki's windscreen is non-adjustable while riding are two negatives that are hard to overlook. The price difference is interesting, depending on which part of the world you live in. Here in NZ the Suzuki with panniers but no centre stand or heated grips (extra cost options) is NZ$29k. The BMW, which has just launched here, fully optioned but without luggage is NZ$39k. Panniers and a top-box would take it to about NZ$42k. Is the BMW the better bike? Probably. Is it worth the more than thirty percent extra cost? Probably not.

Here the suzuki is around 5k less as a base version. The XR is not sold as a base model, stock bikes have the dynamic and touring package, and can't order something with no packages. Imo, the suzuki is an overall better bike, especially street-wise, and I've owned an XR for 5 years now. Both wobble above 135 mph, but the GX includes fork preload adjustability while the XR does not. Which is just bad design. The electronic suspension implementation is overall better on the GX as well. The quickshifter is better on the GX imo, although you seem to think otherwise I notice. Centre of gravity seems lower on the Suzuki, contributing to it feeling less top heavy. GX is a bit less gutless down low. The XR needs a map to be reasonable, while the GX feels more usable without one. Great bikes, but I'd rather spend the extra money on mods for a GX than on fixing stuff and design issues on the XR, which I've done once before. If the difference was 2k, I'd probably get another XR. It's not though.

The reasons to get the Suzuki are always: reliability, lower cost of repairs and DIY. However with more complexity, it becomes harder to work around the cost cutting measures. The front brake, for example, is very hard to upgrade on your own, because it’s tied to cruise control. It’s just too much hassle to get it right off the show room floor.

MotoGiant's bike crushed his leg. No amount of leather or boots will save you from a 500lb bike falling on your leg at 75mph.

Today's comparison, suzuki is just about 20k and bmw is 32k in Turkish market. I don't know. A lot of price difference to select bmw.

Thanks for the excellent comments. Here in Korea, BMW 1000XR costs 10 Grand more than Suzuki 1000GX. My choice here in Korea is Suzuki.

4:04-5:05: Lack of grunt out of cruising RPMs and outright preference of Suzuki motor leaves me feeling OK with my Pikes Peak. I can roll on the throttle in any gear accelerate from same/legal speeds to illegal speeds--no fuss. Yes--overpriced. I'd still take a Porsche Carrera over a mid-engine Corvette, too. Both great.

Wind buffeting is horrible. Even with windscreen in upper position. I have ridden it 2w ago. Compare it with Multistrada 2024. Duc is nice & quiet on 200kmh.

I rode both and bought the GX. Why? I was really annoyed by the seat of the XR. Totally disliked the bucket seat feeling. Tough vibrations are on the XR as well. On the other side the engine and especially the quickshifter of the Suzuki are absolutely premium. Such a smooth power unit… In addition the 2024 color shemes of the BMW do not match my taste. About the price the premium of the XR is fine for me. There are several not important but small addons the BMW delivers / are available like keyless ride, emergency system, factory heat grips and center stand and the better cockpit control. Nevertheless in the end the feeling on the Suzuki was just perfect to me. With a different seat the BMW might have been an option.

They go rid of the "bucket seat" in 2024, so I wonder if you rode a 24 model.

I'm a mechanic. Japanese bikes are seriously higher quality when it comes to build quality, tolerances , and the biggest one design. The European brands will have better suspension, brake, and specs. Japanese quality is better in the things you don't notice unless you are keeping the bike for a long time (longevity) and or work on your bike yourself.

Still can't accept keyless on motorcycles. With a normal key you can't lose it when riding. It's not a car! Thats what turns me off buying a new Beemer. I'll stick with my older model.
