It is incredibly stylish, highly dynamic and yet absolutely suitable for touring: the BMW R 1250 R offers an unadulterated Roadster feeling. The powerful and sporty design underlines the riding character of a machine that is reduced to the essentials, making the hearts of passionate purists beat faster. Riders and passengers also get their money’s worth when it comes to riding pleasure. The low-lying front with a striking headlight is characterized by a dynamic-looking upside-down fork which, together with the bridge-style tubular steel frame, offers maximum stability and precise, light-footed handling. The powerful boxer engine with 1,254 cc and variable valve control, the BMW ShiftCam, develops a full 136 hp and powerfully propels this all-rounder with a maximum torque of 105 lb-ft. The modern cockpit with its 6.5-inch TFT display and connectivity functions keeps the rider both connected and informed. In addition to the wide range of optional equipment and accessories, including various packages and styles, Option 719 offers many options for further customization of the bike. From a technical point of view, options such as the Ride Modes Pro with ABS Pro, HSC Pro and DBC or Dynamic ESA with riding position compensation provide additional benefits in comfort, riding dynamics and safety.
