Features

  • HIGHLIGHTS TO DISCOVER: The R 1250 GS Adventure is at home in the world. No destination is too far for it, no underground is alien to it. On the road, off-road and back again. Even if you don't know what terrain to expect along the way, you can rely on your bike down to the smallest detail. With the R 1250 GS Adventure, you can now enjoy long distances even more intensely. Comfortably and confidently. Always ready for a few extra miles - and miles with that little extra.
  • LED FLASHING TURN INDICATORS AS STANDARD WITH OPTIONAL CRUISING LIGHT: Make you even more visible in the dark. The Cruising Light is also eye-catching: It allows the front indicators to shine in a permanently slightly dimmed light and, in combination with the headlight, produces a wide beam. (European model shown).
  • COMFORTABLE HANDLEBAR RISERS: This is particularly beneficial for the taller drivers. But also when riding off-road or as an ambitious enduro rider, you have more control and even more fun with the handlebars mounted 30 mm higher.
  • LONG RANGE WITH THE 7.9 GALLON TANK: When in beautiful surroundings, you won’t want to cut your journey short: With a maximum range of over 372 miles, you can relax and be on the road a little longer. Due to the on-going supply situation, heated seating, as shown, is not currently available for this model
  • ADAPTIVE HEADLIGHT WITH LED SWIVELING HEADLIGHT: You get more out of every mile if you can see better. That’s why the 1250 GS Adventure illuminates your path consistently and homogeneously. Even on dynamic curves.
  • DTC AND ABS PRO IN SERIES: The nicest thing about adventure is you never know how you’ll reach your destination. With ABS Pro and DTC, you are ideally prepared for any surface. Both when braking or if surface grip suddenly changes.
  • TFT DISPLAY WITH CONNECTIVITY, USB CHARGING SOCKET AND ADJUSTABLE WINDSCREEN: On the TFT display, the BMW Motorrad Connected App gives you a clear view of your navigation and all your data. The large windscreen can be adjusted using the knob and offers you protection from changing weather conditions. Thanks to the USB charging socket, your smartphone always has enough power.
  • GO RELAXED INTO UNKNOWN TERRAIN: The comfortable ergonomics and seating position of the R 1250 GS Adventure offer outstanding vision and let you control the bike easily. As the handlebars can be raised by up to 30 mm, you can ride comfortably and confidently even as a tall rider or standing up while off-road. In addition, the wide range of seat heights from 31.1" to 35.8" and the extensive selection of seats will help you find the right R 1250 GS Adventure for you.
  • LED LIGHTING TECHNOLOGY: More radiance, visibility and prominence: The full-LED swiveling headlights and adaptive headlights help improve illumination and constant range - to the side, up and down. Depending on the ground gradient, payload and inclination in curves. This way, the light is with you wherever you ride. The LED turn signals with Cruising Light option provide an eye-catching appearance with constantly dimmed lighting at the front. While at the rear, the multifunctional LED indicators increase passive safety. Further highlights: the Welcome and Goodbye function as well as the driving lights, which can be activated when the ignition is switched off - very practical when maneuvering in the dark.
  • INSPIRING SMOOTHNESS: Confident, reliable, powerful. Just like the ideal companion should be in known and unknown worlds. Thanks to the variable camshaft control system BMW ShiftCam, the boxer engine of the R 1250 GS Adventure turns long distances into pure pleasure. What does this mean for you? Smoother running in the low speed range and high torque in each speed range. This results in a balanced running culture that gives you even more confidence and dynamics when riding your R 1250 GS Adventure.
  • INSPIRATION AT EVERY GLANCE: The expression: powerful, robust. And on top of that, the impression of being able to conquer any terrain - this is the look and feel of every R 1250 GS Adventure. Now it's up to you how far you want to go
