BMW Motorcycle Reviews

Alex Hearn reviews BMW's 1150 Adventure with mixed views

New riders who like the look should take a test ride on one, as long as most of their riding is either in town or commuting

The Adventure is the ultimate GS – it’s got the sheer usefulness of the stocker, but with bolt-on practicality and a stack more attitude

Good bike, but could do with a style revamp and re-positioning in BMW’s range

If you want an R, make sure it's this one and not the underpowered smaller brother. Not a bad bike all things considered

Pay £5300 OTR and this jack-of-all-trades brings the dream of winning the gruelling Paris-Dakar that little bit closer to reality.

A bike that is simply so capable it refuses to lie down and die, even when superceded by the 1200 variant. Awesome

Try a Boxer engined bike first, especially the new R1200RT
