BMW R 1300 GS 2024
Ten years have passed (2013) since BMW It completely changed its boxer engine, with the arrival of liquid cooling (which also brought other changes to its models). Five years later (2018) it brought the Shift Cam distribution variant, which is present in the current model of 136 CV of power. Although following tradition the next significant change will take place after 10 years, it seems we are facing a new evolution, not revolution, at BMW with this increased shift to 1300 cc and power of 145,5 CV (107 kW). They changed the internal dimensions of the engine: the diameter of the pistons grows from 12.5 to 16.5 mm, and the stroke is slightly shorter (73 by 76 mm for the 1250), that is, it is a more super-square engine, although power is expressed at the same 9000 rpm. The approval also has a stated maximum speed, which has improved significantly: from 219 km/h on the R 1250 GS to 225 km/h: The fairing parts are the most changed, and its appearance, compared to the current GS.
The other number, that of weightit’s something that BMW has definitely worked hard on, as it has recently F 900 GS that we were surprised by it 14 kg less… The fact is that the last R 1200 GS without liquid cooling marks a milestone for its lightness, and that engine is still running within the BMW catalog of its NineT (with Euro5+ and all). The GS has gotten fatter as time, versions and equipment have progressed… and this is something that needs to be trimmed. BMW announced 12 kg less despite the equipment that the new GS brings, although there are interesting things to increase the weight such as the front indicators integrated into the handguards (be careful not to break them because they are not cheap ) or the “X” light, which may be optional. THERE LEDs which will point inside the curves (very interesting, and that patent has not been leaked that I know of).
Let’s see how this has been noticed in development. 12 kg predicted, although the photos show a light motorcycle to tell the truth, to compensate for the fact that the 10 HP obtained still puts the BMW quite far from its more powerful rivals from KTM or Ducati . Although the BMW R GS It’s a class of its own… and the new one 1300 You should be in charge of keeping that flag high. Electronics is another important component, not only in the engine and its management, but also reaches the suspensions that allow another step of the “ESA” for example allowing the adjustment or low seat height measure…
