Thinking of buying one of the three new BMW G Series models?
Friday, May 11th, 2007 - World of BMW Press Release - Total Motorcycle - www.totalmotorcycle.com
Here are a few quotes from the bike press from the recent launch in Portugal:
G 650 Xcountry
Bike
"To its credit the Xcountry is ludicrously easy to ride."
"As a first bike, it's an excellent proposition…"
Superbike
"The Xcountry is a real rival for any beginner or learner bike."
"You don't find many bikes as rider-friendly, simple and functional."
MCN
"At first sight it's easy to reason this bike would make a lovely little A-road shaker, as capable of clocking up big miles as it is at wee-ing on town traffic"
G 650 Xmoto
MCN
"…roundabouts and corners can be taken in a blur of hard braking, melting knee-sliders, with a wheelie on the way out for good measure. BMW has a hooligan bike on its books. Good."
Bike
"It's difficult to stress enough just how hardcore the Xmoto really is. It is a true supermoto."
"The handling is delicious and makes assaulting corners easy, with plenty of what you want - grip, poise, agility, brakes"
G 650 Xchallenge
Bike
"This is the most fun I've had on a single-cylinder BMW."
"It's handsome, effective and distinctive."
TMX
"Get yourself up on the pegs and give it some wellie and you don't find too many protests from any area of the bike."
TBM
"The Xchallenge can tackle some serious terrain which'd leave many big trailies floundering"
"It's the bike for those who want to get their kicks on something just that little bit different."
