Regarding motorcycle adventure and long-distance touring, the new BMW R 1300 GS Adventure is truly the rock in the surf. This almost completely redesigned model brings enhanced adventure expertise, making it the ultimate choice for adventurous motorcyclists.
Legendary Performance with the New Twin-Cylinder Boxer Engine
The heart of the new R 1300 GS Adventure is the legendary twin-cylinder boxer engine. This new design, first introduced on the R 1300 GS, is 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, with a maximum torque of 149 Nm at 6,500 rpm. This makes it the most powerful BMW boxer engine ever produced in series.
Optimized Suspension and Frame for Superior Stability
At the core of the new suspension is the sheet metal shell main frame made of steel. This frame offers higher levels of stiffness and optimized installation space compared to the previous model. The new R 1300 GS Adventure now features an aluminium lattice tube rear frame made of aluminium tubes and forged parts. The EVO Telelever front wheel guide with a flex element and the revised EVO Paralever rear wheel guide provide greater steering precision and riding stability.
Advanced Electronic Dynamic Suspension Adjustment (DSA)
The new Dynamic Suspension Adjustment (DSA) is standard equipment, offering dynamic adaptation of the damping and spring rate, as well as load compensation. This advanced system combines the dynamic adjustment of the front and rear damping with a corresponding adjustment of the spring rate, ensuring an even higher level of ride safety, performance, and comfort on all surfaces. Whether riding solo, with a passenger, or with bulky luggage, DSA ensures an even more thrilling riding experience.
Adaptive Vehicle Height Control for Enhanced Comfort
The new adaptive vehicle height control and vehicle height control comfort are available as optional extras. This system offers fully automatic adjustment of the vehicle height to suit operating conditions, ensuring maximum comfort without compromising riding dynamics and lean angle freedom. The vehicle height is lowered by 30 mm when stationary and at low speeds, providing easier handling and better accessibility for smaller riders.
Four Riding Modes for Versatile Performance
The new R 1300 GS Adventure now comes standard with four riding modes: Rain, Road, Eco, and Enduro. The “Rain” and “Road” modes adapt riding characteristics to most road conditions, while the “Eco” mode maximizes fuel efficiency. The “Enduro” mode enhances off-road riding experience with a specific setup for off-road use, providing versatile performance for all types of terrain.
Automated Shift Assistant (ASA) for Simplified Riding
The new Automated Shift Assistant (ASA) offers an innovative solution for easier and more comfortable motorcycling. This system automates the clutch and gear shift, enhancing the riding experience without sacrificing the dynamics of gear changes. The ASA will be available as an option from model year 2025.
State-of-the-Art LED Lighting for Improved Visibility
BMW Motorrad pioneers motorcycling safety and innovations. The new R 1300 GS Adventure features a full LED headlamp with a distinctive light icon as standard. This includes one LED unit for low and high beams and four additional LED units for the daytime running light and side light. The auxiliary LED headlamps blend harmoniously into the bodywork, illuminating the road with unprecedented clarity and ensuring better perception in traffic.
Riding Assistant with Advanced Safety Features
The new R 1300 GS Adventure is equipped with Dynamic Cruise Control (DCC) with braking function as standard. The optional Riding Assistant offers Active Cruise Control (ACC), Front Collision Warning (FCW), Lane Change Warning, and the new Rear End Collision Warning (RECW). The RECW system signals an impending rear-end collision to following traffic by flashing the hazard warning lights at a higher frequency, enhancing safety on the road.
Innovative Storage Solutions for Long-Distance Touring
The new R 1300 GS Adventure offers robust storage solutions, including a 37-liter aluminium top case and new aluminium cases with integrated magnetic couplings for USB charging sockets and lighting. These cases provide ample storage space and are easily attached to the innovative case holders made of forged aluminium. The optional 10-liter volume extensions per case offer even more storage space, ensuring you can carry all the essentials for your adventure.
Effective Wind and Weather Protection
The new R 1300 GS Adventure features a 30-liter aluminium fuel tank with clever mounting options and a rubberized storage area. The large windshield, combined with two transparent wind deflectors, provides effective wind and weather protection, ensuring a quiet and comfortable ride even on long journeys. Rubberized tank trays offer non-slip, secure storage for utensils during stops.
Multiple Model Variants for Personalized Style
The new R 1300 GS Adventure is available in multiple model variants, each with its own unique style.
