Not sure the Beemer and Suzuki are direct competitors. That's more the realm of Ducati and Moto Guzzi.
For some reason, Japanese sport tourers don't do it for me, though in my relative youth I wouldn't even consider a bike made anywhere else. The fit and finish seems to have slipped from the era when they were the best bang for your buck.
Honestly, not even interested in this bike - other than as an avid motorcylist - is simply too tall, which is the increasing trend.
Say what you will about Harleys and Triumphs, you can easily swing a leg over most of their offerings.
