BMW R nineT Urban G/S versus Triumph Street Triple 765 RS

Conclusion - what sticks

Without question, Urban G/S is beguiling. Our tester Markus let himself be carried away to the remark that in his eyes it is currently the most beautiful motorcycle on the market. It is also a typical boxer child and high-quality workmanship from front to back. For those who do not constantly commute between Germany and Mongolia, the Urban G/S may even be better suited than a normal GS, because the Urban G/S is handier and weighs significantly less.
 
The test bike was provided to us by Bergmann & Söhne in Pinneberg for this test. There is exactly this bike as a demonstrator and is looking forward to a lot of test riders. So, let's go to Pinneberg near Hamburg!

Conclusion - what sticks

The Streety 765 RS is an insanely good bike with many strengths and few weaknesses. It delivers tons of driving pleasure and impresses with a handling that even a Speed Triple 1200 RS has to fit into. Whether it has to be the RS or whether the R is enough, you can't say objectively. If you have to pay attention to your wallet, you will certainly be happy with the R. However, if you can afford the RS, you should help yourself there. The RS is actually a little better in some things and, above all, more noble in appearance. An absolute dream motorcycle!

Once again, we received the test machine from Q-Bike, the Triumph flagship store in Hamburg, for this test. At Q-Bike, both the RS and the R are ready for a hearty ride. So if you are still undecided which one it should be - just go to Q-Bike and at least look at or ride both machines. But beware: If you test drive the RS, you are acutely endangered...
