BMW 450 X. This symbol, still unknown to many in the world of off-road a little over a year ago, has now become one of the main protagonists. Sporting success achieved second place in the world as the WEC, the Erzberg Rodeo and the Red Bull Romaniacs, can not only confirm the authority of the BMW brand, which has managed to bring her to succeed even in 12 months debut.
Not only that, but the variety of competitions in which the G 450 X has established itself, also confirms the versatility of this product, capable of being competitive in significantly different contexts.
The new color red blue look gives it much more "corporate"
Unlike the 2008 press presentation in which lurked an atmosphere of fear in light of the views against the press for the newborn 450, press the test in 2009 could not be better.
In the same paddock Six Days Enduro in fact, under the same tent where the Factory Team came every evening to change the tires, the production manager Marcus Theobald has introduced with great enthusiasm, what's new for 2010: "This year races and testing has confirmed the validity of our project and we would also have us where they can take action to improve certain aspects. From the perspective of the frame were made several interventions to improve agility and reaction speed axle, but without going to penalize stability. As for the engine instead, we worked a lot on electronics acting on the mapping so as to improve performance and also its reliability in extreme conditions. The great advantage of being able to participate in numerous international competitions has allowed us to gather a wealth of information can be analyzed and reported the experience on mass-produced products. "
But let's see what this means for us.
The BMW 2010 has no major interventions in terms of aesthetics. The new color red blue look gives it much more "corporate" side port number in the tables highlight the symbol X, instantly transmit the sporty character of the medium.
"The German house in a short time has made great strides and henceforth no longer be a surprise to find in the charts more important"
Handlebars, another straight and as required by the modern leadership, it was combined with a redesigned seat, slightly higher and more rounded, which allows you to move more easily into the saddle. Small neo, the rubber insert that hides the fuel filler cap, as, while driving back, it's easy trovarselo "between the legs." The controls are all well positioned and easy to manage, with the exception of the gear lever with which you need to get some 'confidence before you can manage them well. Curb the driving position is comfortable and well set, are in fact noticeable immediately interventions made to weight distribution. There remains a slight obstruction to the metal guard placed on the curve of the silencer right behind the dais as slightly projecting, even if the issue is of little importance: after a few turns, you get used to no longer notice it.
The new geometries are immediately noticeable, the load management has always been a subject of criticism for a Volkswagen. The angle of the steering column was in fact decreased by 2.5 mm so as to make the entrance more agile cornering and transmit a sensation of greater reactivity. In return, however, the rear swingarm has been lengthened, so as not to lose any kind of performance in terms of stability. The result is a bike from the same wheelbase, but with weights more balanced and less loaded front wheels.
The range, therefore, has been completely revised in the settings as the previous version was not sustainable and yielding. Now, new internal organs allow good flow in the first part of the race, but at the same time, provide adequate support even during the most violent impacts. I believe that new approaches are, however, still designed to use the softer middle, as trying to 'push' a bit, you realize that the front tends to close deal, charging too much about losing weight and therefore directionality. But acting on external registers can already improve a lot. The mono, always supplied by Ohlins, has been greatly improved, so that they can abandon the classical assumptions that no single linkage is difficult to develop.
As for the engine the main interventions are of a form. Were in fact introduced new maps (now the standard version is very similar to the racing model 2009) that make the single-cylinder engine more responsive at low speeds, while maintaining the great gift of elasticity. E 'was also rescheduled the configuration inherent in the electric start, as the previous version had to wait a few seconds after a stop in order to restart. Now the starter is absolutely instantaneous no matter the situation where it is called in question.
The innovative solutions adopted will deeply mark the character
In combination with the new setting is proposed, directly from the parent a special racing exhaust (not certified) much more efficient in terms of weight and great for those who want an engine more promptly without having to spend a fortune. The discharge will be optional in fact sold at a figure of around 250-300 euros.
With regard to the braking system, is the binomial Brembo - disk full daisy, excellent both in terms of modularity, and duration in time.
The test was definitely one of the most selective ever used for an actual test and be able to travel all over the lap of the race with this bike gave me the opportunity to be able to seriously test every point of view. In fact, after one year confirm that, before getting into the saddle, you need to take a step back.
The innovative solutions adopted will deeply mark the character and only adjusting their driving style to the bike you can appreciate to the full the talents and qualities. That said, BMW has clearly done draw on experience, bringing out a new G 450 X much more affordable for everyone.
The German house in a short time has made great strides and hereafter no longer be a major surprise to find the charts, much less to see it parked in the garages of many people.
And 'now available at dealers across Italy
