2024 R 1250 RT

Description

The R 1250 RT is the perfect companion for your tour: Its legendary BMW ShiftCam Boxer engine pulls just as powerfully over country roads as it does over winding mountain passes. Its updated front end makes it look more dynamic and slimmer. On the other hand, there is a wide range of features such as the extra-large 10.25" TFT display or available Active Cruise Control (ACC) - providing extra comfort on your journey. And at the end of the day, you know that there’s nothing like shared experiences and a perfect companion. A fully fledged #RideAndShare.

Being on the road, eating up the miles, meeting people, new experiences, exchanging stories: Every tour has highlights. Just like the R 1250 RT. Its many features allow you to ride comfortably, you are always well prepared and can focus entirely on your trip.


Maximum vision

More space, more clarity, more visibility: The new, large 10.25" TFT screen combines all the instruments of the R 1250 RT, plus practical functions such as the navigator and connectivity. The split screen gives you an overview of several functions at the same time, such as displaying the on-board computer in addition to the current speed. The color display is given extra sharpness and contrast by the robust, tempered and non-reflective glass cover. Your screen is easy to read even in the midday sun and, thanks to the anti-fingerprint coating, it stays that way.

Getting places confidently 

Carefree riding pleasure: The newly-available Active Cruise Control (ACC) driving assistance system lets you set the desired speed and the distance to the vehicle in front conveniently by pressing a button on the handlebars. A radar sensor at the front determines the vehicle speed and the distance to the vehicle ahead. If this distance is reduced, the system automatically reduces the speed and re-establishes the selected distance. If the distance is increased, the vehicle will increase speed and resume the speed setting. This way, you can enjoy a relaxed journey over every mile.

One bike, many styles

Dynamic lines, impressive design: The R 1250 RT impresses with its athletic form, sometimes sporty, sometimes elegant. You decide what style is best suited to you.

Comfort in every dimension

You’ve chosen your style and color: Now it’s time to prepare the R 1250 RT even better for your tours. In addition to adaptive headlights and ACC, other comfort-enhancing features such as Ride Modes Pro, heated seats and Keyless Ride. In addition, there is a range of optional equipment and optional accessories. Design the R 1250 RT just the way you like it. Your tour, your experience, your machine.

Dynamics written across the face 

Compact and slim: The front of the R 1250 RT is sleek and encloses LED headlights. Together with a more compact body, this creates a dynamic unit with one clear advantage: an even larger field of view. The new windscreen boasts an impressive patented air duct: Forward suction and air movement on the upper body are reduced - so you continue to ride in comfort even after many hours on the bike. The two-part front-wheel cover also underlines the compactness, supports the aerodynamics and reduces dirt on you and your bike - especially in the rain.

Built for touring 

You can feel the power of the boxer engine from the very first mile. No matter where your tour takes you: Performance and smoothness fascinate in every speed range. This is also ensured by the BMW ShiftCam variable camshaft control. With superior power delivery, it gives you extra control. The high torque curve, the elasticity and the irresistible power with fewer gear changes help provide relaxed touring. And thanks to its generous displacement and power with high efficiency, your riding pleasure increases with every mile.
