Hey everyone! Today we've tested 2 amazing motorcycles: BMW R1200 GS Rallye and Ducati Multistrada Enduro PRO
OFFROAD
Always be careful when you ride off road and take some riding lesson since the weights are high, there are knobbed tyres and they're very powerful
When there's a power of over 100 HP, you really need to pay attention
Ducati's Enduro mode cuts the power at 100 HP, while BMW's Enduro mode still has 125 Hp
I've tested both of them in Enduro mode, suspension wise, but I've turned off the Traction Control and the ABS
allowing to have an improved handling when turning, using the rear brake. 4 points out of 5 for both
The BMW GS has a low centre of gravity and Sport suspensions which have a 2 cm longer travel. This bike is good up to 80kph, with a great output at low RPM, allowing to ride slowly
over 80 KPH, the Multistrada is better. It's easier to ride on the pegs, with a very large handlebar, the fork and the rear suspension work very well
4 points to the Ducati for the fast riding and 4 points for the BMW for the slower rides
The Multistrada Enduro Pro in a city usage: It has a high centre of gravity with a 30L tank which is positioned high, with a total weight of 260 KG. Another thing is the heat coming from the engine
while the Urban riding mode and the clutch work well, just like he suspensions. 3 points since the weight and the heat are pretty high
5 points for the BMW since, thanks to the boxer engine the center of gravity is low, the riding position makes it easy, the steering angle is very wide and the heat is very low
What about the highway?
well, engine wise, the Ducati is good, with a good power. The wind protection is pretty good, apart from the shoulders and head
There's enough space for the passenger, even though, by sitting in a higher position compared to the rider, the wind protection is low. At around 150 kph there's vibration. 4 points
3 points for the BMW since the Rallye isn't as comfortable as a standard version, since it doesn't have passenger's handles and the seat is small. While the wind protection is very low
roads outside urban areas
It's where these bikes give their best. Obviously the knobbed tyres suffer a bit, especially when braking at the front, the suspensions work well but you can't get the best of this bike with knobbed tyres. 4 stars
Obviously off road tyres on 150 bikes don't allow to go fast, but don't think that the Rallye can't be fun. Up to 180 KPH, the performance of the two motorcycles are similar, over that speed, you can feel the higher power of the Ducati
GS Rallye 5 points, since the active suspensions help a lot. On Dynamic this bike becomes a supermotard, also thanks to the Scorpion Rally STR tyres. But keep in mind that this kind of tyres aren't made to go fast
The braking system is perfect, just like the engine which has a great power from 1,500 RPM up to 8,000
Now let's see some on road footage
the riding position is extremely comfortable like on any GS, the handlebar is wide and near to the rider, perfect for those who aren't very tall
The wind protection isn't that good since the windshield is very low, even though it's as high as it gets, while riding on the highway you'll get some air
The 125 HP boxer engine is very smooth, pushig hard form 1,500 RPm up top 8,000. The shift is a bit hard, but this one here is electronic, meaning that it's extremely smooth. It makes you want to go fast
We have a Sport kit here. This bike is very agile and the Brembo braking is really good
The riding position of the Enduro PRO is extremely suitable for different height's passengers, thanks to the deep seating. The handlebar is tall, very comfortable, perfect for the off road
The foot pegs are made for the off road
There's a 5 inch TFT cockpit, easy to read
The 1200 cc engine has a very good torque power starting from 2,000 ROM, with low vibrations, but it gives its best over 6,000 RPM
The shift is very smooth, there are 4 riding maps which work along the ABS, traction Control and with the semi active Sachs suspensions
Touring mode is the best one and the one you'll be using the most
We will now be talking about the BMW Rallye, which is a special edition, with a new beack and a Euro 4 engine
It has a new light blue colour, which is in contrast compared to the black engine and black swing arm
then there are spoked tubeless rims, 19 at the front, 17 at the rear, the windhield is smaller and it can be set up on different position, there are new fog lights and gold Brembo calipers.
The seat is shorter and lower, but the passenger has less space. It can be set up on 2 positions: 870 or 890 mm. It costs 17,490 euro, without all the accessories
The Enduro Pro has a new sand and black colour, 30 L tank and black details on the engine. Then there's a sump guard made by Touratech, fog lights and a smaller windshield which can be set up on different positions
The price? 22,290 euro, a bit more than the Enduro model
This bike come with Pirelli Scorpion Rally tyres, and the Termignoni exhaust
Talking about the GS Rallye, it comes as standard with road tyres, but we have fit it with knobbe tyres, Scorpion Rally STR, which are more road oriented compared to the ones fit on the Multistrada. Remember not to ride too fast with off road tyres
The difference between the two tyres is the different ratio between knobs, STR are more suitable for the road
The Multistrada PRO is similar to the standard Enduro. The 1200 engine has a smooth output, the rear frame is in aluminum, the Semi avtive Sachs suspensions have a 220 mm travel. The rear pre load can be manually set up
The Ducati has a power of 152 HP at 9,500 RPM with a max torque power of 13.1 Kgm at 7,500 RPM. There are 19 and 17 inch rims and double aluminum swing arm
There's ride by wire, riding mode, Traction control which can be set up, hill start assistance and 4 riding modes. All the previous things can be adjusted even outside the ridimg modes
what about the GS Rallye?
The engine is the same Boxer, water cooled, paralever swing arm, at the front there's the same Telelever, which, with the Sport kit, can have a 20 mm longer travel. 210 mm travel at the front, 220mm at the rear
The tires have the same size as the Multistrada, there's Cornering ABS and on this full optional version, there are 4 riding modes, electronic shift, which is amazing and, sump guard and Akrapovic exhaust, which is an optional
The seat on the Rally isn't too tall, the centreal part of the bike is narrow and the handlebar is large, the low windshield helps in riding off road. The passenger has kow foot pegs but it doesn't have handles and the seat is small. The double seat is optional
Ducati's seat is at the same height as the BMW, but the seat is carved in, the passenger has a big seat, with big handles and well positioned pegs. The handlebar is placed more forward compared to the standard version
the front of the Multistrada is huge because of the 30 L tank
The foot pegs for both bikes are made for the off road
Both bikes are keyless, BMW doens't come as standard with handguards and heated grips.
the cockpit has 2 standard instruments and a diital display which shows everything. On the handlebar we can see all the switches which are easy to use
HEre's the suspension's set up, which are active, cruise control and, on the right, riding modes, heated hand grips
Ducati comes as standard with a keyless technology, There's a TFT cockpit and the switches are backlit
on the left we can find the cruise control, riding modes. The cockpit has a 5 -inch TFT display, which isn't really easy to read in the dirt, and it can change the info display depending on the riding modes
What about the finishes?
they're very good on bikes, starting from the GS Rallye: The price is of 23,320 euro because we have Day lights, hill start control and Comfort, Touring and Dynamic packages, Sport kit and alarm, it's perfect, 5 points
Same thing for the Multistrada, since the price is really high, the finishes must be good, The Multistrada, on top of other things, comes as standard with cornering lights, which are full LED
Anyway BMW has a good light system as well
That's it for today but remeber to go slowly when fitting knobbed tyres when raining. Which one do you like? See you soon!
