Ideal for a sporty short trip
If things go the way they did with their predecessor, BMW has a potential bestseller in its range with the F 900 R. Why not: The machine is quite cheap for BMW ratios and at the same time quite good.
You just have to know what you want. This bike is ideal for a sporty excursion without great travel ambitions. Whose wish this was always: Test drive please!
The test bike was provided to us by Bergmann and Söhne in Pinneberg near Hamburg.
Conclusion - it continues
Children as time passes. Barely eleven years old and you can sort a motorcycle in good conscience into the non-existent category "Classic Sports Tourer". In the 0-100 km/h test she turned around nicely at the back, modern bikers are no longer used to the absence of a traction control.
Here you still drive yourself beautifully. If you are looking for something like this, you can strike here. The Honda CBF 1000 comes with fresh inspection and also the wear parts are not yet ... Well, yes... Worn. Thanks to the quality, it should bring joy to its new owner for a long time to come.
