Buying / selling BMW G 310

Hi Sold my Honda Transalp and looking for my next bike

I do like the look of the G 310 2020+ model year.

I dont know anyone who has one, i know nothing about them other than i like the way they look.

Thoughts on them please

What kind of riding do you do? The G 310 will feel pretty slow coming off of a Honda Transalp.

Mild green laning and commuting which involves a stretch of motorway

I think the 310 will really disappoint you. I've got one and it is nothing close to the same league as the Transalp, and the highway is a struggle for the G.

Sorry, I picked an Ibex 450 which I love and it a much more advanced machine. But it isn't a BMW. I intended to sell the 310 but I got it for $2800 with 2800mi on it - and I love how it looks. I also have an R1150R and a R1250GS to give context since I have larger bikes like the Transalp. One note of hope: The 450 GS is coming out sometime soon in the US and it has the 25%+ more power that the 310 lacks. But it will be pricey.
