"The appearance of the new BMW R 1300 GS
Adventure is sure to attract attention. The big GS is not only
visually different from its almost dainty sister. Never before have
seating comfort, ergonomics and wind and weather protection been so
harmoniously combined with precise handling, exceptional suspension
comfort and smooth running. The new BMW R 1300 GS Adventure has set
itself the goal of becoming the benchmark for large adventure
motorcycles.”
Christof Lischka, Head of BMW Motorrad Development
The new BMW R 1300 GS Adventure: When it comes to motorcycle
adventure and long-distance touring, this is the rock in the surf.
An almost completely newly designed model with enhanced adventure
expertise across the board.
Crossing the Sahara in
searing heat, climbing the Himalayas or exploring the Amazon
rainforests - for more than two decades the big BMW GS Adventure with
flat twin boxer engine has been synonymous with such long-distance
motorcycle journeys with a passenger and lots of luggage. To ensure
that this remains the case in the future, and to provide adventurous
motorcyclists with even more adventure expertise, BMW Motorrad has
almost completely redesigned the engine, chassis, bodywork, design and
storage concept of the new R 1300 GS Adventure compared to the
previous model, taking the cornerstones of the BMW GS Adventure to a
new level.
The legendary twin-cylinder boxer engine is once again at the
heart of the new
R 1300 GS Adventure. The new design, first
introduced on the R 1300 GS, is much more compact than its predecessor
thanks to a transmission located under the engine and a new
arrangement of the camshaft drive. It generates 107 kW (145 hp) from
1,300 cc at 7,750 rpm. Maximum torque is 149 Nm at 6,500 rpm. This
makes it by far the most powerful BMW boxer engine ever to be produced
in series.
At the center of the new suspension is the sheet metal shell
main frame made of steel, which in addition to being significantly
optimised in terms of installation space also offers higher levels of
stiffness than the predecessor model. In place of the previous tubular
steel construction, the new R 1300 GS Adventure now has an aluminium
lattice tube rear frame made of aluminium tubes and forged parts. The
EVO Telelever front wheel guide with flex element and the revised EVO
Paralever rear wheel guide also provide even greater steering
precision and riding stability.
New electronic Dynamic Suspension Adjustment (DSA) as standard
equipment ex works, with dynamic adaptation of the damping and
spring rate, and also load compensation.
The previous
Dynamic ESA Next Generation electronic suspension itself offered a
high level of ride safety and riding fun on a wide variety of terrains
with its dynamic adjustment of the damping and adjustable spring basis
at the rear. The new electronic
Dynamic Suspension Adjustment
(DSA) now goes one step further, combining the dynamic adjustment of
the front and rear damping with a corresponding adjustment of the
spring rate (“spring stiffness”) - depending on the selected riding
mode, riding condition and manoeuvres. The automatic adjustment of the
spring basis ensures load compensation. This makes for an even more
thrilling riding experience on all surfaces. Whether solo, with
passenger or with bulky luggage - DSA ensures an even higher level of
ride safety, performance and comfort.
Adaptive vehicle height control and adaptive vehicle height
control comfort with vehicle lowering as optional equipment ex
works.
The new adaptive vehicle height control and
vehicle height control comfort are available ex works as optional
extras for the chassis of the new R 1300 GS Adventure.
With adaptive vehicle height control, the new R 1300 GS offers
fully automatic adjustment of the vehicle height to suit the operating
conditions, ensuring maximum comfort without having to compromise on
riding dynamics and lean angle freedom. The vehicle height is lowered
by 30 mm when stationary and at low speeds.
The new R 1300 GS Adventure can also be fitted with the optional
adaptive vehicle height control comfort system for smaller riders, or
for particularly good accessibility and even easier handling. It has
all the features and functions of the vehicle height control, and a
standard height that is 20mm lower.
Four riding modes now standard. “Enduro” riding mode for an
enhanced off-road riding experience.
Even in the
standard version, the new R 1300 GS Adventure now has four rather than
three riding modes to suit individual rider preferences. The “Rain”
and “Road” riding modes allow riding characteristics to be adapted to
most road conditions. With the “Eco” riding mode it is possible to
achieve the maximum range on a single tank of fuel, while the
additional riding mode “Enduro” enables an enhanced riding experience
off the beaten track with a specific set-up for off-road use.
Automated Shift Assistant (ASA) for fully automatic clutch
actuation with manual or automated shifting for even more riding
enjoyment as optional ex-works equipment.
With the new Automated Shift Assistant (ASA), BMW Motorrad
offers an innovative technical solution to make motorcycling easier
and more comfortable. True to the motto "Simplify your
ride", the riding experience is further enhanced by the
automation of the clutch and gear shift, without sacrificing the
emotionally important dynamics of the gear change.
The Automated
Shift Assistant (ASA) will also be available as an option on the
BMW R 1300 GS from model year 2025.
Full LED headlights in new matrix design and auxiliary
headlights as standard. State-of-the-art LED light units all round
with turn indicators integrated into the hand
protectors.
BMW Motorrad is regarded as the pioneer par
excellence when it comes to motorcycling safety and related
innovations. Accordingly, the new R 1300 GS Adventurer offers a new,
very small and attractive full LED headlamp with a novel, distinctive
light icon as standard. The light unit consists of one LED unit for
low and high beam along with four additional LED units for the daytime
running light and the side light. The new R 1300 GS Adventure also
features two extra-flat auxiliary headlamps with LED technology that
blend harmoniously and safely into the bodywork. This combination
illuminates the road with unprecedented clarity, thereby ensuring even
better perception in traffic. State-of-the-art LED light units with
newly designed LED turn indicators – integrated in the hand protectors
at the front, function-integrated at the rear – round off the lighting
concept of the new
R 1300 GS.
Riding Assistant with Active Cruise Control (ACC),
Front Collision Warning (FCW), Lane Change Warning and the new
Rear End Collision Warning (RECW) for safe and convenient
motorcycling as optional equipment ex works.
The new R
1300 GS Adventure is already equipped with Dynamic Cruise Control
(DCC) with braking function as standard. The Riding Assistant offers
many more functions as an optional extra ex works. It consists of the
components Active Cruise Control (ACC),
Front Collision Warning
(FCW), Lane Change Warning and the new
Rear End Collision Warning
(RECW). The new Rear End Collision Warning (RECW) system signals an
impending rear end collision to following traffic by flashing the
hazard warning lights with a higher frequency. The Rear End Collision
Warning (RECW) system will also be available on the BMW R 1300 GS
presented last year from model year 2025.
New aluminium top case and new aluminium cases with integrated
magnetic couplings as electrical interfaces for USB charging sockets
and lighting as well as an optional volume extension are available
as optional equipment ex works.
A robust 37-liter
aluminium top case and a top case holder with vibration-decoupled top
case plate, electrical interface for lighting and USB charging socket
as well as integrated passenger grab handles are available as optional
accessories for the new
R 1300 GS Adventure. The load capacity
is up to 8 kg.
The new aluminium cases, each with a load capacity of up to 10
kg, are also ideal for transporting luggage easily and safely. The
total capacity is over 73 liters (37 liters left, 36.5 liters right).
They are simply, quickly and securely attached to the innovative case
holders made of forged aluminium. The magnetic coupling integrated
into the left-hand case holder acts as the electrical interface for
the USB charging socket in the left-hand case. The optional 10-liter
volume extensions per case provide even more storage space. Made from
high quality aluminium, they are quick and easy to fit.
30-liter aluminium fuel tank with clever mounting options and
rubberised storage area. Effective wind and weather protection with
windshield and hand protectors with hand protector
extensions.
The new R 1300 GS Adventure comes with a
completely new design that sets it even more apart from its sister
model, the R 1300 GS. A key component of the outer skin in the central
bodywork area of the new R 1300 GS Adventure is the 30-liter
sheet-aluminium fuel tank, which is largely uncovered. It was
particularly important to BMW Motorrad's development engineers that
the tank, with its large outer skin, also does justice to its
additional function as a luggage carrier in a special way. That's why
three fastening elements have been screwed onto the upper tank
panelling for easy and simple refuelling and quick access to the
smartphone charging compartment. This clever solution offers
individual fastening eyelets for items of luggage and at the same time
provides an articulated mount with snap lock for the 12-liter tank bag
with waterproof inner bag and outer bags, which is available as an accessory.
The sheer width of the tank inspires confidence and provides
effective frontal weather protection. The large windshield, combined
with the two large transparent wind deflectors, also provides
effective protection from the wind and weather, making for a uniquely
quiet and comfortable ride, even on long journeys. Rubberised tank
trays to the left and right of the upper tank covers are also
standard. They provide non-slip, secure storage for utensils during stops.
The new R 1300 GS Adventure: The very highest level of touring
and off-road expertise in an attractive basic variant along with the
variants Triple Black, GS Trophy and Option 719
Karakorum.
Even in its basic version,
the new R 1300 GS Adventure leaves no doubt about its purpose.
Finished in solid Racing Red, it has an athletic, well-trained look
that invites you to embark on dedicated motorcycling adventures. The
silver tank, black and red seats, black handlebars, black rims and red
hand protector extensions provide a striking contrast.
In the Triple Black model variant, the new R
1300 GS Adventure shows its elegant face. Accents in perfectly
coordinated shades of black and the aluminium fuel tank finished in
high-quality Tinted Clear Coat are the hallmarks of this exceptional
character. Black elements such as the standard engine protection bar
with silver inserts, handlebars and wheel rims are combined with grey
hand protector extensions, large aluminium radiator cowls and
black/grey heated seats for the traditional Triple Black colour
scheme. A luggage rack and high windshield with large wind deflectors
complete the Triple Black look.
The GS Trophy model features a sporty colour
scheme. Racing Blue metallic paintwork is complemented by eye-catching
solid Light White and solid Racing Red stripes. Textured powder-coated
parts in Avus Black matt metallic create exciting contrasts with the
aluminium parts. Red and black seats and red hand protector extensions
combine with the stainless steel engine protection bar and black
cross-spoke wheels to create an attractive colour scheme. Black
grilles in front of the radiators and auxiliary headlamps provide
effective stone guard protection. The smaller sport windshield and
sport grab handles for the passenger further emphasise the GS Trophy's
sporty character. Large radiator cowls with lashing eyes and aluminium
fuel tank shelves also provide robust docking points.
Option 719 Karakorum presents the R 1300 GS Adventure
in the exclusive colour Aurelius Green matt metallic. Gold-coloured
lines and the Shadow milled parts package complete the high-quality
appearance, as does the "Opt. 719" badge on the tank cover.
Golden anodised components such as the wheel rims and handlebars are
particularly eye-catching. The standard engine protection bar is
painted black and the hand protector extensions are grey. In addition
to the small aluminium radiator cowls and protective grille on the
auxiliary headlamps, there are two black/grey heated comfort seats, a
luggage rack and a small sport windshield.
