1995 BMW R 1100 RS review from United States of America
"Dependable sport tourer"
What things have gone wrong with the motorcycle?
Nothing.
General comments?
Handles like it's on rails.
Seating position is somewhat uncomfortable. Had to modify the seat by scooping out some foam to make it fit my rear.
The adjustable seat and handlebars could use a little more adjustability.
The low end torque is very good, and the HP is more than enough at the top.
This is an all around great sport touring machine.
