The 2025 BMW R 1300 RS: sporty tourer with room for customization
The BMW R 1300 RS (2025) is the latest addition to BMW’s rich line of sporty touring motorcycles with boxer engines, a tradition dating back to the iconic R 100 RS from 1976. This modern RS offers everything: performance, comfort, technology, and plenty of options to customize the bike to your liking with high-quality Accessories.
At its core is the completely redesigned 1300cc boxer-twin, delivering 145 hp and 149 Nm of torque. With an optional Automated Shift Assistant (ASA) for clutchless shifting, riding is both sporty and relaxed. The R 1300 RS comes standard with three riding modes (Rain, Road, Eco), with optional access to Dynamic and Dynamic Pro via Ride Modes Pro. Also standard is engine drag torque control (MSR), or engine braking control.
New technology, new frame, new control
The RS features a newly designed steel main frame, combined with a 47 mm upside-down front fork and BMW’s updated Evo Paralever rear suspension. This provides increased stiffness, a lower center of gravity, and more precise handling—both on the highway and in corners. In combination with the optional Dynamic ESA suspension, the bike automatically adapts to the road surface, load, and riding style.
The electronics package is impressive: Dynamic Cruise Control, adaptive cornering lights (optional), and an extensive Riding Assistant including Active Cruise Control (ACC), Front Collision Warning (FCW), Lane Change Warning (SWW), and Rear End Collision Warning (RECW).
