with no possibility of adding luggage I wish people (including BMW on its web site)would stop saying that the BMW has "long distance" capability. It does not.

You can add luggage - just get the necessary parts from the s1000xr catalog... it isn't a heavy lift.

I own the rs and so far I was able to put down 450 miles easily in one outing. comfortable and easy to ride. It was incredible comfortable going fast, I mean when I would up in it was so planted you wanted to pin the throttle. It let you feel confident. I had to keep reminding myself there are police and my license was in jeopardy. The bmw was never a contender for my self, past bar vibes experience just killed it. Then theres the doughnut sprinkles for graphics.

@@DucatiDiaries Tested the BMW once and I felt vibrations in the bar. I had a dealer let me have it for a weekend it was just plain annoying. I couldn’t imagine doing a long distance trip with that bike and being stuck on a boring road and my hands falling asleep. Maybe the M is different, is there a dealer that’s gonna let someone test drive one probably not. But it’s a bargain compared to the Ducati if you can get past that or if the vibration still exist. I’d like to know.

@@escapeorion3741 Yeah I didn't notice vibration but then again I was only in their governed road mode (race mode wasn't available yet until break in period). The M was definitely a special beast. But the RS is the best for "super" touring. I just made that up. :o)

Need two-up comfort AND touring--with luggage. I already have a sporty local ride bike (Hypermotard SP), which seems to be the odd hole the BMW is trying to fill--as a "local tourer"? It's NOT a tourer. It's big and really sporty. but not a tourer. I'm interested--but I'll likely be keeping my Pikes Peak V4. Maybe the S1000XR tail could be retrofitted.....

I just ordered Steedas twin air filters for my Mustang, I guess I'll be ripping out those little carbon filters, those snail like traps stuffed in the INTAKE air ducts like a good little tree hugger😂.... $200 for the filters and it sounds like I'll get maybe 10 horsepower... .. trust the science😂

Ah let the modding begin!! Just be careful not to void the warranty of that beauty. They still have the black one with red pinstripes in Danbury. That's been there for a long time. They need to start lowering prices!

@DucatiDiaries I'm pretty sure these dumb things will void the warranty if removed, I guess I'll be nice and gentle with them and stick them in a sandwich baggie in the trunk.... you know damn well if anything major happens the dealer will look for a reason to not spend thousands.

How do the engines feel? is the BMW too buzzy with short gearing? Is the torque there to accelerate in-gear, out of corners, without grabbing lower gears to go, etc? An in-gear race would have been nice.

My friend had the latest tech air bag vest on and I had an armored motorcycle shirt on until it got too hot and I removed it. I'm sorry to be such a disappointment to you for that. My friend lectures at a top Ivy League school and is on the board there, has been racing cars and bikes his whole life, and has over 60 motorcycles. I started riding when I was eight years old and have experienced many different types of motorcycles. I'm sorry that you discredit our advice because I took off my jacket in the heat. You're right, that totally invalidates my thoughts and opinions on these two motorcycles.

Multistrada 1260 Pikes Peak and Monster 1200R owner here. Not interested in the Multi RS or any Multi V4. It's too big. The XR is big but about the same as my 1260 Pikes Peak. originally trade a Panigale for the Multistrada to tour and two up. Didn't happen. May go back to a sportbike to pair with the Monster. S1000RR looks appealing. So does the R1 and the Fireblade. Panigale no longer offers any value, especially now since Ducati dropped the beloved Single Sided Swing Arm.

@@DarR1299 the Multi V4 is definitely big but very nimble and gives you the feeling of having a big presence on the road. I sold my Multi V4S though. For me currently, the Diavel V4 is my favorite bike. I agree I hate to see the Panigale SSSA gone but I'm confident the new Panigale will be very special and a big performance improvement. I can't wait to try one.
