Good write up and review in this month's Bike magazine (cue, don't buy it, it's sh1t) along with one on the Yanaha Tracer, which is selling in bucket loads, being a very good bike for not a fortune.
It seems that BMW have hit it straight out of the middle of the bat with the XR. Not surprisingly as the engine and suspension technology is top notch already. For anyone who really doesn't need anything more than a 20 litre tank (few people really do) and isn't frightened by a chain (some are) the BMW - or the cheaper Yamaha - would both be worth a test ride, I would have thought.
