Thinking about a S1000XR

Ry46
Well I have a 2017 Yamaha Super Tenere which I always wanted. I’ve had it 2 years and I have toured around Holland, Germany and Poland on it and also ticked off the 4 Corners of U.K. last September. It goes nicely, handles just fine and just does everything I want really well. But...... lately, I have had a hankering for either a Ducati Multistrada 1200S or a BMW S1000XR.

I started looking at Ducati’s but then found a very low mileage S1000XR at a killer price. I ride for pleasure and do two 10 day Continental trips each year all solo so come on, talk me into or out of these bikes. What is the dreaded vibration issue with the XR, how do they stack up for reliability and fuel consumption on tour, just tell me the good, bad and ugly facts about these bikes.
