MODEL VARIANT
Greater riding stability: EVO Paralever
The latest generation of the Paralever, the BMW Motorrad EVO Paralever, provides outstanding riding stability and impressive handling.
As multifunctional as possible: the frame concept
Designed for the most enjoyable riding experience. Your R 1300 GS is a cleverly arranged package with highly concentrated components. The main and rear frames offer countless individualisation options.
Riding comfort: Adjustable windscreen
The standard sport windscreen has a light and dynamic appearance and provides an excellent view of the road. It can be easily adjusted for variable wind and weather protection.
Nice and short: the rear
The short, steeply inclined rear offers numerous individualisation options. It comes with the slim, sporty passenger seat as standard. Together with the functional sport grab handle bridge, it can be turned into a real visual highlight, and offers plenty of seating comfort for passengers.
Excellent handling: EVO Telelever
Precision, riding stability, enthusiasm. The new BMW EVO Telelever creates a feeling of transparency for the front wheel and a unique riding experience.
Guiding light: LED matrix headlight
A clear break from tradition in the design: the new symmetrical light icon. The high-beam and low-beam headlights are integrated in a single projector unit. The turn indicator is integrated into the hand protector.
Distinctive sound: the exhaust system
The single-pipe exhaust system that is installed as standard generates an unmistakable boxer sound and drives you to keep on riding.
Extra dynamic: the GS Flyline
The dynamic GS Flyline accentuates the clear lines - from the front-wheel cover, to the vehicle cockpit, the tank, the seat, right up to the rear. The flat tank platform ensures outstanding ergonomics on short and long-distance journeys.
