BMW Motorrad announces MY2025 updates
BMW Motorrad announced a slew of updates to their motorcycles for the 2025 model year; bikes with these new options will be available for ordering in August 2024 at your favorite BMW motorcycle dealer.
Most of the changes are cosmetic, a typical move for all manufacturers around the world. Some colors are discontinued while others are made available; for example, the G 310 R and various K 1600 models all get new color schemes for 2025. Some models in the BMW lineup gain fresh Option 719 accessories, but let’s focus on more substantive updates.
K 1600 GT: You’ll be able to order a center stand—which BMW calls a main stand—separately from any options package.
K 1600 GTL: You’ll have to choose the Comfort Package to get a center stand.
F 800 GS: The Touring Package now includes Headlight Pro, heated grips and hand protection.
CE 02: Batteries will be removable for more convenient charging.
R 12 and R 12 nineT: The Connected Ride Control option now includes a USB-C port.
It’s not a lot of changes, but don’t forget we’re likely to see a new R 1300 GS Adventure in 2025, and possibly (even probably) an R 1300 RT, so it’s unlikely these updates are the last changes for MY2025 we’re likely to hear about.
Well disappointed again and again ,after riding Beemers for the last 60 years ,still no 500cc or so mid size GS. I have, last year ,retired my fabulous world travelled 2009 R1200 GSA ( I am 78 after all ) and would like to end my riding days on a <190 kg BMW GS. Yes you have 310 GS ,while nice not well suited for North American long distance travel. SO??.
