The all-new BMW R 1300 GS Adventure has hit the Indian market with a starting price of ₹22.95 lakh (ex-showroom). The adventure beast comes as a fully built unit, and the first deliveries are set to roll out by April 2025.
The bike offers three distinct styles for personalisation – Triple Black, Style GS Trophy, and 719 Karakorum. Each style comes with colour schemes – the Basic variant flaunts a Racing Red paint job, Triple Black is draped in Blackstorm metallic, GS Trophy shines in Racing Blue metallic, and 719 Karakorum comes in an Aurelius Green matt metallic.
The design of the R 1300 GS Adventure has had a makeover, with a fresh flyline and a standout 30-litre aluminium fuel tank, largely exposed for a bold look. Premium touches like recessed BMW emblems and embossed GS lettering add to the bike’s rugged charm. The large adjustable windshield and two large transparent cockpit panels offer solid wind and weather protection.
The BMW R 1300 GS Adventure comes with LED headlamps as standard. The headlamp includes a single LED for both low and high beams, plus four additional LED units for the daytime running light and side light. For added visibility, it also packs two extra-flat auxiliary LED headlamps. On the tech side, the bike has a 6.5-inch full-colour TFT screen. Paired with the BMW Motorrad Multi-Controller, it gives riders quick access to both vehicle and connectivity functions.
