2024 R 1250 RS

Description

The BMW R 1250 RS is a powerful sports touring bike. Characterized by its two-cylinder boxer engine with BMW ShiftCam technology, it visually embodies sporty dominance and unadulterated riding pleasure. Thanks to wind and weather protection, as well as the relaxed sitting position and assistance systems, you can enjoy every corner and every mile – whether alone or with a companion. Every punch of your boxer drives you forward – every single time. On every journey and every dynamic intermediate sprint. You demand more with confidence– and the bike delivers. Simply put: #NeverStopChallenging.


Longer journeys, fewer stops

The efficient Eco ride mode is now added to the Rain and Road ride modes as standard. This gives you the choice between efficient riding and the usual dynamic sportiness. The status display in the 6.5" TFT display shows you the selected setting. And the new optional Pro riding modes with Dynamic and Dynamic Pro provide more performance on your tour.

Power in every situation

The boxer engine with proven BMW ShiftCam technology has two different intake camshaft profiles. Thanks to its variable camshaft control, the drive impresses with optimal running smoothness, high efficiency or impressive torque development depending on the requirements: for truly powerful acceleration. The increase up to the maximum torque of 105 lb-ft can be felt in every speed range: in sprints in the fast lane, as well as during powerful acceleration out of bends.

More choices

One boxer, three faces. From classic, purist to sporty, dynamic to striking elegance: each of the three color combinations perfectly expresses the incomparable dynamic sports touring character of the R 1250 RS.

Sporty from front to rear

From the striking front end with the newly designed LED flashing turn indicators, to the high windscreen and full trim panel, right through to the short, sporty, slim single seat: The R 1250 RS is a pure sports touring bike. Performance-oriented and dominant. Comfortable and hungry for curves. Just as the bike’s lines promise. Just the way you want it.
