Two wheels, endless horizons

BUT YOU NEED STRONG LEGS TO RIDE IT SAFELY

- VIKRAM CHAUDHARY

A machine is only as good as the person operating it.

THIS PHRASE clearly applies to high-end motorcycles such as the BMW F 900 GS Adventure, which I recently rode on highways around Delhi NCR, as well as in Delhi's and Gurugram's traffic jams.

Why the F 900 GS?

For those who love long-distance riding—or adventure touring—bikes bigger than 1,000-cc can be too heavy and cumbersome, and sub-500-cc bikes can feel a bit powerless. That's where the 900-cc fits in—it promises to be nimble and yet powerful.

How does it ride?
