BMW's R1300 boxer twin family gets two new members, in the R 1300 RS and R 1300 RT. They replace the outgoing R 1250 RS and the R 1250 RT, respectively. And as you’d expect, there’s plenty of farkles on the touring bikes.

Get your best riding gear on: BMW has taken the wraps off its beefy new R 1300 R that packs plenty of power, electronics, and premium componentry to carve up the streets in style. It's yours for a starting price of US$22,320.

Forty-four years after BMW's R 80 G/S triumphed in the Paris-Dakar rally in 1981, the company has unveiled its new dirt-focused boxer. It embraces the very spirit of the OG bike and expands BMW’s roadster platform with electronic and structural upgrades.

A total of 210,408 BMW bikes were sold last year, with Germany, the company's home market, accounting for the highest volume. The United States accounted for 17,272 units alone. More of the same in 2025, please?

BMW's GT and RT motorcycles have a legendary status. They are terrific tourers that offer everything one could ask for – but if there’s one thing I’d change about them, it would be their MSRPs. Enter the sub-$12,000 Spanish Mitt GT-K.

2025 is here and as is the case with every new year, there’s plenty happening in the world of motorcycles. There are quite a few motorcycle launches lined up for the new year, and sure enough, there are some cool ones to look out for.

The BMW R1300GS is a state-of-the-art adventure motorcycle that has the credentials to take you anywhere, but the one thing it can't do is win you any drag races. But what if it could? Aftermarket accessories maker Puig might have the answer.

The entry-level adventure bike class is heavily populated by the likes of KTM, Royal Enfield, and CFMoto’s hugely capable offerings. These 400-500cc bikes are fun, lightweight, and most importantly, affordable. Now, BMW is set to take on them all.

BMW Motorrad has announced a new Automated Shift Assistant (ASA) technology that operates the clutch and gearbox of a motorcycle to offer a smoother, faster, more precise gear shift. If you’re thinking “what for”, then you’re probably an existing motorcyclist. That was my first reaction when I saw BMW’s press release, but as I read onwards, I changed my mind.

BMW Motorrad shook up the world of scooter design back in 2017 with the futuristic Concept Link electric scoot, and then surprised with news of an actual release. Now it looks like a repeat formula for the youth-focused Concept CE-02.

We've seen several attempts to create head-up display smartglasses for motorcyclists in the past, and we've been wildly unenthusiastic so far ... but that just changed.
