Pros Cons of BMW R 1250 GS Adventure

Pros

  • Good looking ADV
  • Lots of features
  • Good for touring and off-road

Cons

  • Expensive
  • High Cost of Ownership
  • Heavy

Verdict

As A big, bulky adventure bike may not appeal to everyone. But then, it may be just the bike with all-round versatility that many riders seek, even those who have had considerable experience with sportier machines. The GS has a reputation as being one of the most versatile motorcycles which can be used for both two-up touring with luggage as well as for adventures. And it's not difficult to understand why it has been so popular and has been one of the bestselling adventure bikes worldwide.

Pros Cons Harley-Davidson Road King

Pros

  • Proper retro cruiser design
  • Comfortable ergonomics
  • Torque-heavy engine is a gem

Cons

  • Heavy in weight
  • Ride quality is a bit stiff
  • Lacks electronic aids

Verdict

The Harley-Davidson Road King is a bagger and offers solid road presence, on account of its sheer size. The Road King has been discontinued in India and one may find models in the used two-wheeler segment or through Harley-Davidson owners group but we recommend to stay clear of it. The new H-D Road Glide makes more sense as a full-blown bagger, if you do want to buy one!
