Conclusion - what's stuck?
The R nineT is not only fun to drive, but also looks great! And it is probably this combination that makes the bike so desirable for motorcycle fans worldwide right from the start.
BMW describes it as follows: "Design your motorcycle, design your life." It also has a lot to do with lifestyle and so the nineT leaves hardly any customizer wishes unfulfilled in terms of diversity. It is the basis for deep individualizations, which sets the machine apart from the competition. In addition to the already diverse model and design variants, there are plenty of Customizing accessories, so everyone can make their own roadster dream come true. Even the on-board electronics are designed with numerous interfaces in such a way that changes do not represent a major hurdle.
Even if the NineT is purist in almost all respects, it does not do so in terms of price. Not at all when you make the most of the numerous possibilities for change to realize your own exclusive dream bike. But individuality always has your price. However, the success proves BMW right again in this case, because the BMW R NineT is so popular that one should expect extremely long delivery times.
Conclusion - what sticks
Just while writing, I notice that I am not able to put the driving feeling of the test on paper. Sorry, but if you want to experience what MV feels like, you probably have to sit up yourself. In any case, the F3 RR is an extreme bike in every respect and not for everyone. If you are interested in exclusive super sports cars, you should definitely take a test drive and form your own opinion.We kindly received the test machine from Bergmann & Söhne in Hamburg. Here she stands as a demonstrator and who dares: TEST DRIVE!
