German motorcycle manufacturer BMW Motorrad has revealed the R 1250 R roadster. The 2023 BMW R 1250 R retains its predecessor's mechanical bits but gets a whole lot more equipment as standard.
The 2023 BMW R 1250 R retains the 1,254cc two-cylinder boxer engine with BMW ShiftCam technology that produces 134bhp at 7,250rpm and 143Nm of peak torque at 6,250rpm. The engine sends power to the rear wheel via a 6-speed gearbox. The 2023 BMW R 1250 R sprints from 0-100km/h in just 3.4 seconds and has a top speed north of 200km/h.
The BMW R 1250 R comes packed with a host of electronic aids as standard including Dynamic Traction Control, BMW Motorrad ABS Pro and Dynamic Brake Control. The R 1250 R also gets three riding modes including a new 'Eco' mode as standard.
The BMW R 1250 R also retains the steel tube two-section frame with the bolt-on rear section and the load-bearing engine of its predecessor. At the front, the R 1250 R roadster sports a 45mm upside-down fork while at the rear, the bike features a mono-shock and a cast aluminium swingarm.
The bike rides on 17-inch rims that are offered as standard as die-cast aluminium alloys though an option set of spoked units are also on offer. The wheels are shod with 120/70 ZR17 (front) and 180/55 ZR17 (rear). Braking duties on the R 1250 R are handled by twin 320mm discs at the front with 4-piston radial callipers while the rear wheel is halted by a single 276mm disc with 2-piston callipers.
Design-wise, the 2023 BMW R 1250 R sports quite a few new bits including a new all-LED headlamp and LED turn indicators with LED DRLs as standard. The LED headlamp can also be optioned with adaptive turning lights.
Also seen on the 2023 BMW R 1250 R is a new TFT display with the 'Sport' Core Screen as standard. Other standard equipment on the Boxer-powered Roadster motorcycle include an Intelligent Emergency Call System and a USB charging socket to keep your gadgets topped up on the go.
The 2023 BMW Motorrad R 1250 R is offered in three colourways that depend on the variant chosen. The standard variant gets finished in Ice Grey Non-Metallic.
The Style Sport variant is finished off in Racing Blue Metallic and also features a white frame, gold-painted brake callipers, and black sports handlebars. The top-spec Triple Black variant sports a Black Storm Metallic paint job, Agate Gray Frame, gold brake callipers, pure tank trim and the radiator grille and blue front spoiler in stainless steel.
Thoughts About The 2023 BMW R 1250 R
The 2023 BMW R 1250 R roadster gets a whole lot more equipment as standard and still features quite a bit of kit to help owners customise their boxer-powered Roadsters to their heart's content. News about a launch in India is still scarce but we expect the R 1250 R to arrive on our shores sometime in the first half of next year.
