From sleek sportsbikes to stunning tourers, BMW’s lineup had me seriously tempted — could this be my next ride? 👀

Join me for a walkaround at Vertu Rotherham as I check out the BMW Motorrad range, chat bikes, and maybe even make a big decision!

Hello YouTube and welcome to another video. Today we’re at Virtue BMW in Roam shopping for a new bike. I just accidentally hit the home but it didn’t work because ignition is not on. So we’re not shopping for a new bike, but she’s actually sat on a a bike. Oh, they put a lower seat on it for me and it actually feels very comfortable and I’ll question all the choices I’ve made in my life until this point. So, if anyone wants to buy an S1000RR, Berari B should cover it. So offensive. Yeah. Come and look at this. This is up your street. What? This one’s up your street. Oh my god. That’s gorgeous. Do you like this? It’s not my cup of tea. Hang on. I’m going around and back cuz I’m going to sit on it. I don’t know if I’ll be able to stand it up though cuz that bike is quite close to that bike, isn’t it? I don’t want to tip. Will it be all right sanding it up, do you reckon? Yeah. God, that look at the gap there. It’s like an upright, but you’d still be laid down. No, but I mean like look how long the tank is. No, I just think how much it to fill it up. I didn’t think how much it would be to fill it up. Is that all tight? No, it’ll have all the stuff in here as well. That’s really nice. I really want to stand it up. can’t get over how big engine is. Yes. So, it’s a boxer engine it’s called. And so, I’ve written a different R90 model and that’s the one that when you change gear. Isn’t it so shiny? I can’t stand it up though cuz it’s so close to that one. Just wheel it out of it. I’m not wheeling it out. I’ll get one of the lads to wheel it out. I’ll get I’ll get a chat to it. Awkwardly wait for me to make eye contact with someone. Maybe put my hand up. Should I put my hand up? There’s some scrap here. You are. Sorry. There’s some scrap here. Some scrap. How dare you? How dare you? Oh, it’s my bike. I’m going to see how much taller it is. Cuz obviously I’ve had the seat car. Don’t mind. I’m not going to even attempt to stand that up. Are short, aren’t you? You are. You are very short. Was it three and a half foot in heels? What? Three and a half foot in heels. This looks shiny. The paint looks glittery. Yeah, but this gray one looks better. Why didn’t you get a gray one? My paint isn’t glittery. Look at that. Is it glitter or dust? No, it’s glitter. That’s what I just wiped. Mine isn’t like that. Oh, I want a glittery one. See, it does look nice with the buns, doesn’t it? Yeah, but that seat looks even taller than this one. It looks like a smaller seat. That one that looks like a slimmer one, but it looks taller. Two newer. That’s higher than that. Look at that. Is it? It’s going to be That’s the high side. It’s comparable. You need to stand on the other side of it. Yes, I know what you’re saying. But that doesn’t look as tilted. Bloody hell. This is Yeah, this is way taller. Oh, no. Maybe not. Yeah. Look, it’s taller from there as well. It’s an illusion. Look. Look. Hang on from the front. And I’m going to check the camera on this one. That That looks taller than that. Is it not? Nah. The front end of this one looks better. So, it’s upright. I need to be looking at anyway. Yeah. An F900 would be a good bike. Yeah. Sorry. An F900 would be a good bike. Yeah. It’s not sold or anything, is it on a sticker? No. Oh my god. Is this Is this trapped? The lower bike’s by a foot. you are. Can the lower bikes by a foot? Can the lower bike by a foot? So you can get on it. I know. Looks better in all black. Heavy that I’m not lifting it up. That doesn’t feel any lower than that one. Very wide at the front. See, I say I want an upright, but I don’t know how I’ll feel actually on an upright. Yeah, but it shouldn’t be a completely different style of rider. Well, like I just said to the chappie, when I was on that R90T, riding that R90T, it felt like it was a parachute. Anything above 80 cuz you’re like the wind just it pushes so hard on your chest, which is surprising considering how big your muscles are. I’ll do it like this. You like that one? I love this one. That’s very wide out. Ask this man to pull it out. Excuse me. Excuse me. Would you be able to pull this one out, please? Thank you. And then and then would you would you mind just supporting the front just while I stand up? I’m not sure on the the glance. That’s better. Yeah. [Laughter] That’s so long, isn’t it? They’re a long reach. I mean, put them straight. They are They are quite a long reach. Blime me. That’s so weird. Yeah. It’s funny because they’re designed to like a retro bike, but more like a sports bike. Yeah. Don’t look at that. Not a lot. as well. Yeah, it does, doesn’t it? I moved it the other day and I’m like, it’s nice though, isn’t it? Yeah, it is. I like really like Yeah, cuz he was saying that um the chat bought a new newer model of it. Did he in the orange he sold this and bought us? Yeah. Yeah. And then he came back in to try and buy this one back. Blime me. Yeah. If you try to tilt it. Yeah. See, that’s very tiptoes. That is Yeah, cuz this would have been like the most obvious sort of Yeah. I know for a fact that that generation is quite a lot lower, right? It’s got a big seat on it, so it doesn’t really help. I’ve got a standard seat in the back. Yeah, if you don’t mind, please. Yeah. So, we’re sold on this then? You are. Sorry. Are we sold on this? Yeah, that’s it for that one. 12 that 10 and a half. Too bad. 600 miles on it. Nothing. Is it? That’ll just mean it’s just had it service then and just been unleashed. So they’ve unleashed it, done 20 miles and then No. No. It’s very nice. So hang it back on. I can see you on this. See, I like them for touring and things. It’s perfect, doesn’t it? That doesn’t look so doesn’t look as bad. It has got quite a wide seat on it though. But it was saying that that one’s that’s a lower seat than that one, but they do an even lower seat than that. But these have adaptive what do you call it? Adaptive adaptive suspension. Ride eye. Yes. So basically anything when it comes under 30 mph, it lowers itself. So when you accelerate and it gets to 30, it lifts itself back up. Adapt what you call adaptive suspension. Adaptive ride. Yes. Don’t know if that one’s been sold. He’s gone to find a seat. See, that’s sparkly. See, that’s a That’s a triple black. It’s not a triumph. It’s got a matte black, glossy black, and a sparkly black. Do you reckon that’s what it is? Triple black. Oh, give me sausage. Oh, why don’t you get one that they’d be a good first one for you? The only thing I find weird is they’re not chain driven. No. And that just looks expensive if it goes wrong. Yeah, that’s like the R9T. That’s not chain, is it? No. No, that’s not ch. Look at the size of them. See, that’s insane, isn’t it? Look at them. That’s like sitting in an armchair. Even the front’s like the size of an arm. I’d want to be a pillion on that. You Sorry. I’d want to be a pillion on that. Yeah, I I’ll be the main rider. You can reach the floor from the back. So, you just drop your legs down. Could put a TV on back of your helmet. Xbox. Tape an iPad to the back of my head. Put Starink on. Beware. What’s Starink? Internet. Oh, online gaming while going out that motor. Imagine you could have your coms through the helmet, you know, for your game chat. Imagine. Oh, look. He’s changing a seat. How stressed I get on that guy. You got a head button. Me about this one with gold. No. F800. That’s just the gold is just not the one, is it? It’s maybe because it’s gold and silver. So, it’s a very small unit this, but they’ve crammed a hell of a lot of bikes in, haven’t they? Yeah. Oh, look. We’ve got a bike of the week. This is a 2019 BMW F750 GS. It’s only done 30,000 miles, full BMW history, 2 years warranty, and 2 years breakdown cover. All just 4990. 499. Yeah, 4990. Grab a bargain. Is that your job interview size? Get it in garage. I definitely wouldn’t get that in a house. Look at the engine on that. Look at that. That’s on both sides. 1.8 liter. See, who needs that? Really? Straight out of a one series. You just stuck it in. No, this is a real street. Oh, look at this one. No. Is that the electric? Is that the electric one? I have no idea. Yeah, I think it is. It’s like it’s got a space saver. It’s got a what? Space server. No, I think that’s the electric one. I mean, I might completely be messing it up. Remind me to have a look at that one the same as mine to see if it’s got cruise control or standard. So, if you take it off, put it on your Yeah, that’s got cruise control. That is nice though. I like that. I just don’t see the point of cruise control on a sports bike because there’s a lot of like 50 zones that are awful sitting. Do you know how hard it is to sit at 50? actually ridiculous. You sorry. Oh, thank you. Stop the seat. You’re special treatment, don’t you? Yeah. Look how Look how high that little bit is at the back. It’s like a little baby seat. That’s loads better. Lot better. Yeah. Yeah, cuz I’ve got ever so slight kink in my leg. Show you that. Does it? Does it not look weird? It feels like a manageable size. Feels comfortable. Yeah, that’s good. You touch floor, you’re not tipped off, but towing. So, you’re sort of in control, aren’t you? So, if I tilt the bike, I can flat flat for Lean it slightly. That feels quite comfortable. It looks good. What the headlight? The headlights aren’t like It looks good cuz it’s got the screen on. So it’s not just like fully open from Oh, that suits you though. a spec sheet. And I got 14 and a half th000 miles. It’s nothing, is it? What year is it? It’s old. 2016 nearly 10 year old. Yeah, but the mileage it’s done what thousandish miles a year. 15,000 miles. Yeah. So 1,000ish. No. 1200. Math. Muffin. 13,200. 1200. 1300. No. Can’t remember what mileage you said it was. I didn’t remember what mileage you said it was. 14,630. And what year? 2016. So it’s nearly a year old. Nearly 10 year old. Yeah. And it’s on 14 and a half thousand. Yeah. So a th00andish round it up to 14. You’re all right. No, you were shaking the camera like and it’s eight eight grand. Drop R in you. Sorry. Chop R in. Put N grand towards it. I’m going to cover that and go. We could go from this to this, this, or this. Comment which one you’d prefer. This Oh, this mean I’d probably still lean a bit on it and rest my stomach on it. Honestly, with that seat on, I think that’s perfect for you. Yeah. Yeah. This feels comfortable. This does feel comfortable. And I think you’d actually enjoy drive driving it, riding it, driving it compared to the RR cuz I think unless you’re going Oh, unless you’re going balls out balls to wall pointless. Yeah. Yeah. But the only the only reason that the RR has been a pain is because I’ve been with you on pit. That’s why I talk to the jer. It’s easier to ride at full speed. Yeah, but I feel like on that you’d be able to keep up with me on vanilla cuz you struggle on the other one sticking that you know that’s the um cruise control. No, it has actually got cruise control. Oh, the cruise control. They just meant the throttle stick. You not know that? Shut up. Um yeah, it’s got cruise control as well. No, I don’t like that. Do you know I had like the impulsive version? Press the horn. Remember when we did it in ignition? Yeah. Not try it. No. Remember when we did it in a house? When you did it in the house? Yeah. And it was like walked straight up. Yeah. I like that one. Okay. I feel quite comfortable in this. Sold. Buy it. Sign it. No. I have to look at other options. That does feel very comfortable. I’ve put mucky fingerprints on it. Oh, it’s got a little so you can hold on while you’re on the seat. Yeah, that come straight off. Yeah, that and um Oh, that bolts onto that. But you’d have to get a um tid tail tide. No. So this this metal bit is one unit that goes right the way across but it’s got the plate and the lights on it. That’s on Oh, no it isn’t. Yeah, it is. No, it is. Is it? Is it? Is it? Yes. Is it? We are. We’re not. That pillion seat is massive though. I know. Why is it like a high chair? You’d have to put a cow on though. Sold. No, just not yet. See got a decent exhaust on a I think everyone says it different. Oh god. Yeah, I like that. Yeah, it is nice. Even this bins here. You know, it’ be easy to put the yellow on it as well. What? What? Heated grip. Oh, mine’s got a heated grip. Wax metallic cruise control and theft alarm. Flip it around. This is sold. Yeah, that’s nice. Nice one, isn’t it? Yeah. Think it blocking this ch where? Fine. We can move up. Have a look at this. See if it has got cruise control. Yeah, cruise control. Cuz it’s like proper built in. Look. I think you got a team or one. there and there. Mine doesn’t have that bit. Smells to it. That’s nice as well. That hasn’t got a sticker on it. That hasn’t got a sticker on it. He’s ready to go in. Got plenty of stock, haven’t they? Yeah. Yeah. I mean for a small unit they from the lot in [Music] sit on that one got a soul stick on it is it so am I’m allowed to sit on it it’s free if there’s no price it might be think it’s no chance no it might be all You can’t even tilt it over how comfy that is. Imagine it’s like a sofa. So, I was saying to the the chap about how wallowy it is. And you were saying you can adjust it depending on what mode um is how wallowy it is. So, dynamic mode stops it from being like like you’re on a boat. Yes. So, what was that one? 2016. You’re tempted, aren’t you? I mean, it is very nice. These are all a bit is a bit big. Do you want to sit on any? No. Yeah. I can’t temp you with the VM. Couldn’t even sure. So, there’s no point getting me up. So, can you not? No, you can’t touch this one. This is sold. Sold. We’ll have a look at the clothes in a second. Put one of them on yours next week. I’ve got a week to work on it. Oh, look. Shiny new ones. Just look at look at the wings on it.

What the hell? I’ll get you one of these t-shirts. A the last time you see him after that. I have to go and watch it. Have a look at the clothes. Let’s swap to that side. Yeah, I like this. Too much red. I like red. That hole stands wally. It’s on wheels. E, look at that. Some adventure gear. It’s creased it. Oh, that’s nice. Life a ride. That’s a nice one, isn’t it? You don’t wear hats? No, I don’t suit them. I haven’t got the the head shape. That’s cuz it makes it look like I’ got a little round face. Sorry. I liked that. But it’s GS top. You want a S1000R one?

Well, Vandermark’s sleep as well, isn’t he? Potentially Mortal America. Yeah. So, I just watch World Super. No, we’ll support um Chevron’s leaving again. Well, who are you thinking of now?

Oh, so you just looked at the jumper and I just looked at the t-shirt of it. Well, I’ll get you all matching for Christmas. Just like a walking BMW to wear your new S1000R. 50% off March price. Stop it. It’s 35. Yeah, but look at that jacket at the front. Yeah, it’s that vintage, isn’t it? Yeah, but look at Yeah. So, two 220 quid. It’s reasonable. Have you not seen this jacket?

Um, yeah, but they’ve got this button here. And being a BMW, I’m not sure why it does. It’s called an indicator or something. Yeah, it just says off. So, that’s probably why they don’t use it because they just think, oh, we’ll just do it off. It’s nice though. Does it suit me? Yeah, it does actually. See what insurance says in about 5 years time. You might be able to wheel it back a bit. You want me to wheel it back? Put it back and nudge. Yeah, that’s enough. Just so people can get past. Oh. What’s your dingdong? Silly mirrors.

  1. There's some scrap here 😂😂, off topic I presume you run your K2 on E5 high octane, how much are you paying cus i filled up today and payed just over £1.60 a liter.

  2. I've got the opposite problem most bikes make my legs cramp they are too bloody small 😂 next bike is going to be the biggest adventure bike I can get my hands on probably a KTM.

  3. If you're considering a super naked, i'd check out the competition, like an MT10, Speed Triple or GSX-S1000, If it's just for road riding, even the Street Triple could come into play, it's got all the power you'd ever need, in a great handling package. However coming from a supersports, the windblast on a naked, takes some getting use to. Personally I think you should stick with the RR or something similar, supersports is where your passion lies

  4. Yeah i like the S1000RR looks nice but for me i would have loved to own a HAYABUSA, i had a demo on a brand new gen 2 modal bloody loved it, but i remember thinking if i buy this bike i will lose my license LOL but look at the choice of all those bikes unbelievable, nice camera work he's doing a cracking job, good video as always very much enjoyed it, ride safe sweetheart

  5. Some nice bikes there …friends got the R nine t with handlebar bar risers on makes a huge difference £500 tho from bmw ..but yeah agree with Ash the black one looks just right for you ….great video as usual we will end up bumping into each other as you visit same places as me around Donny and Yorkshire 😂
