Change to the brake system

THE SPORTS BIKE FOR LONG TOURS
Starting signal for your next tour.
The R 1250 RS is the right motorcycle if you want to sprint on long-distance routes. With the Sport style this is visible at first glance. The Shift Assistant Pro makes switching even easier, because there's simply no need to engage the clutch. Dynamic ESA and the Pro driving modes ensure that you can focus on the most important thing of all - your driving pleasure. Safety and comfort are never left behind with the comfort package, ABS Pro and the intelligent E-Call emergency call. Waste no time with Keyless Ride: Simply get on and start up your R 1250 RS.
The Austin Yellow metallic matt colour scheme in Style Sport is a real eye-catcher. In addition, the bike boasts high-quality materials and surfaces. The Sport inscription, large coloured tapes and high-quality stainless-steel components complement the extravagant sport tourer's look, which is characterised by visual lightness.
The Dynamic Package hones the sporty qualities of the machine while at the same time offering safety benefits. The equipment features include Pro riding modes with ABS Pro, Dynamic Traction Control (DTC), Dynamic Brake Control (DBC) and Hill Start Control (HSC), shift assistant Pro as well as LED daytime riding light and LED indicators.
The Pro riding mode options now also include the Core Screen Sport, HSC Pro with automatic brake activation, Engine Braking Control EBC, and Dynamic Braking Assist DBA.
The shift assistant Pro allows shifting up and down in almost all load ranges and engine speed ranges without clutch control. The assistant thus ensures noticeably reduced shifting times, a relief of the clutch hand and thus more comfort, dynamics and riding pleasure.
With the innovative ABS Pro, the motorcycle remains better controllable for the rider even when braking in an inclined position. Since the sensor system measures also the lean angle, the brake pressure can be controlled in a better way, even when cornering. This reduces the motorcycle's tendency to straighten up, meaning that the rider can keep it more precisely on course.
Brilliant appearance: the attractive LED indicators with white indicator glass impress with their slim design and modern lighting technology. They respond faster than bulbs and offer a significantly longer service life. This results in clear safety benefits in traffic.
With Dynamic ESA (Electronic Suspension Adjustment), a more stable and thus even safer handling is achieved. The system automatically regulates the damping action and spring preload of the telescopic forks and spring struts to match the riding conditions and load thus offering maximum comfort and the best possible traction even when leaning into corners.
The Sport seat with its 20 mm higher and narrower rider's seat supports a sporty riding style thanks to its active seat position. It particularly suits tall riders. The comfortable knee angle offers the biker noticeable improvements in seating comfort and thus even more carefree miles even on long journeys.
Thanks to Keyless Ride, the ignition key can now remain in the pocket. The system is extremely convenient and allows the rider to start their machine simply at the push of a button. The steering lock and fuel filler cap can also be unlocked in this way. The motto is: just get on and ride off!
High-End in perfection: the high-quality slip-on silencer made of titanium with a carbon end cap guarantees a throaty sound and a sporty look. In addition, the sports silencer developed with Akrapovič has a weight advantage over the standard silencer.
DOUBLE THE TOURING PLEASURE
More touring comfort for two.
The R 1250 RS is perfect for a trip for two. With possibilities to increase the storage space and other individualisation options, you and your companion can stow everything for your trip. You can ride faster, but you'll never lose your bearings with the right additional equipment such as the Navigator VI. Advanced riding modes and other options such as ECALL let you arrive at your destination carefree and comfortably.
