2020 BMW R1250 RS

Each tour is determined by two factors: time and distance.

With the BMW R 1250 RS you can get more out of every tour. The rich 105 lb-ft torque and 136 hp of the boxer engine accelerate you quickly to your cruising speed. The innovative BMW ShiftCam technology offers you more torque over the entire speed range, so you can rocket to an impressive sprint in every riding situation.

The redesigned front gives the full-LED headlight a fresh, sporty look and performs or rides aerodynamically into the wind. This way, you can ride quickly and comfortably at any time. One thing is certain - no matter how much road you ride, with the R 1250 RS your riding pleasure grows with every mile you ride.

BMW ShiftCam is the name of the innovative technology that lets you accelerate faster from any speed.

This is achieved by means of a variable camshaft control system. The increase to 136 hp gives you more power and, with the capacity expansion to 1254 cc, the possibility to make another sprint in the fast lane. The increase in torque (max 105 lb-ft) is noticeable in every rpm range, delivering the typical boxer punch an pure riding pleasure.

TFT display with connectivity.

Connect your smartphone to your bike via Bluetooth. The 6.5-inch TFT display shows you everything about your motorcycle and offers you in conjunction with the smartphone app additional features such as navigation, music and phone.

LED MAIN HEADLIGHT.

The latest example for BMW Motorrad's innovative strength in this field is the full-LED headlight with integrated daytime riding light, which is available for the first time in series production motorcycle- the R 1200 GS. This LED main headlight illuminates the road with a hitherto unmatched light clarity as the only one of its kind in the world.

The LED for the high-beam headlights is vastly different and has a strong light intensity with its two glass lenses.

The automatic transition between daytime riding light and low-beam headlight is done automatically depending on the setting in the instrument cluster menu.

With the daytime riding light switched on, the motorcyclist is significantly more visible and is therefore much safer. Added to this is the striking look of the horizontal "U", which – as with the light rings on the K 1600 models – are an unmistakable identifying feature of the new GS.

The light unit has two LEDs each for low and high-beam, and four additional LEDs for the daytime riding light and the position light. These are fastened to a central heat sink made of die-cast aluminium. An axial fan is positioned behind the heat sink.

Another air rectifier directs the warm air to the window glass and in so doing creates an air circulation in the headlight. This air circulation allows the headlight to de-thaw and also makes an active contribution towards de-icing the headlight lens in the winter.
