Did you guys also know.... 1. The fuel indicator isn't a traditional gauge. The bike tells you how many miles you have remaining based on your fuel economy, similar to modern cars. 2. When you put fuel in the bike, the hole on top of the tank is perfectly sized for the gas nozzle. It doesn't wiggle and will never slip out. 3. With cruise control turned on, you can hold the switch up or down and the bike will accelerate or decelerate until you let go of the switch. You don't have to click up a million times to increase speed or touch the throttle. 4. While the bike does have linked braking, if you use the rear brake by itself in slick mode, then ABS won't turn on and will allow power slides. If you use the front/linked brakes, then ABS will continue to operate. 5. The bike has a CAN bus system. This is basically a system that runs the electronics on different circuits. It can detect when your light bulb is out and anything else related to electronics, and you'll get a warning.

@Moreflying18 жыл бұрын
In the time I've had the BMW, the only finicky thing I can think of is with the quick shift. The throttle on down shift needs to be full closed or it gets a bit rough. Also, keeping the throttle position steady produces the smoothest up shift. I don't like the way you have to remove the seat either. Longer runs...BMW is a better choice. It has more road amenities and for a sport bike very comfortable seating. You'll have a much stronger dealership network as well. I do believe you get a better warranty with BMW also. Aprilia requires finding a mechanic that is VERY knowledgeable about the V4. The valve trains need special attention especially if you track it. Go on the AF1 forums and read up. Aprilia still makes their tanks out of plastic that ends up blistering and warping too. Anyways...just a few things.

@Moreflying17 жыл бұрын
You're going to feel heat from the engine. You'll feel it more as the ambient temperature rises. So it will heat up your inner legs on very hot days. Moving my legs away from the frame and letting the air flow does the trick if I feel warm. I don't feel sting or pain with a pair of riding pants or leathers on though. Haven't felt heat through my SIDI boots that I can recall. Not a deal breaker in my opinion unless shorts and flop flops are the riding attire : )

I think you missed the point. The tank on the BMW is not underneath the plastic. So, if the handlebars make contact with the plastic it's not going the damage the tank. It's less expensive to replace a $250 piece of plastic compared to a VERY expensive aluminum tank. Of course not every crash is going to protect the tank, but if the handle bars get shoved into the bike they won't screw the tank up.

No the dealer did not allow test rides. When i sat on both the 18rr was more comfortable. The 23rr had way more gadgets and quality was on point. The 18rr was over 4k cheaper and that was what edged me closer to the 18rr. If money wasn't an issue i would definitely lean towards the 23rr. However i did not purchase either. I'm waiting for the winter months to see if i can get a better deal since bikes are out of season and the price tag drops a little.
