BMW is turning up the heat in 2025 with the all-new R1300R—a powerful naked roadster that replaces the long-standing R1250R. With a fresh attitude and a seriously strong motor, this bike is ready to command attention.
More Muscle, Same Boxer Soul
At the heart of the R1300R is BMW’s iconic 1300cc boxer twin engine, now delivering a punchy 143.5bhp and 110 lb-ft of torque. That’s a serious leap from the outgoing model, making this bike perfect for riders who love effortless overtakes and punchy exits out of corners.
Despite packing more power, BMW has also trimmed the fat—shaving off 1.4kg from the wheels for sharper handling and improved tyre choice with 17-inch cast wheels front and rear.
A Design That Feels as Fast as It Looks
The new R1300R is more aggressive in its posture. The handlebars are flatter and set forward, footpegs pushed back—inviting the rider into a front-leaning stance that screams “let’s ride.” Want to tweak it? The bars rotate for even sportier ergonomics.
The standard seat height of 785mm caters to most riders, but BMW offers optional extras to bump that up to 810mm for those who prefer a taller feel.
As versatile as ever before. Ready to conquer every twist and turn, the all-new BMW #R1300R is eager to join you on the road.

Not Just Fast—Smart, Too
This roadster is more than just brute force. It’s loaded with tech to match. Three riding modes come standard: Rain, Road, and Eco, with optional Dynamic and Dynamic Pro for those who like to push the limits. Cornering ABS, traction control, and MSR (to prevent wheel lockups when downshifting hard) are all on board.
It also features a re-engineered chassis with a stiffer sheet metal main frame and a new die-cast aluminium subframe, improving stability and load capacity—perfect for longer road trips.
Pricing and Variants
Starting at £13,200, the R1300R isn’t cheap—but it’s loaded. The SE version brings more features for £15,500, and those wanting the slick semi-automatic ASA gearbox will need to shell out £16,255.
Is It a Super Naked? Not Quite
This isn’t meant to be a wild, track-focused monster like BMW’s S1000R. The R1300R is a refined roadster with loads of low-end grunt and real-world comfort. It’s for the rider who wants excitement without compromising daily usability.
