The BMW Urban Range
F800R
The new F 800 R is radically different, and yet every inch a BMW. The state-of-the-art parallel twin engine with electronic fuel injection develops 87 horsepower from its 798 cubic centimetres, not to mention a mighty 86 Newton-metres of torque. And with the Akrapovic sport silencer retrofitted, its sound is every bit as impressive as its performance.
The 320-millimetre Brembo double disk brake at the front ensures maximum stopping power, while optional BMW Motorrad ABS and TPC Tyre Pressure Control further enhance safety.
The bike is also highly manoeuvrable, thanks in part to the lightweight aluminium in its rigid frame and dynamically styled double swing-arm, which helps keep its dry weight down to just 177 kilograms. Handling is incredible precise, thanks to the excellence of the suspension set-up, and a fuel tank located under the seat for a lower centre of gravity.
A wealth of design options, including LED indicators, painted components and radiator trims, give it an even sportier look.

K1300R
A show of strength. A statement of intent. A touch of class. Meet a bike that’s all this and more: the new BMW K 1300 R. It’s impossible to imagine a more striking or more exciting naked bike. Designed without compromise to impress – and to perform. An output of 173 hp (127 kW) and 140 Nm of torque ensure it can handle anything the street can throw at it. Looks aren’t always deceptive.
Imposing design meets unique technology. Technology such as the famous BMW Motorrad Duolever for optimum handling, and optional BMW Motorrad ABS and TPC Tyre Pressure Control.
The K 1300 R is also the only naked bike available with gear shift assist, allowing riders to change up without declutching or taking their hand off the throttle.
ESA II Electronic Suspension Adjustment as an option on the K 1300 R, allowing you to modify the suspension set-up depending on the load you are carrying. ESA II controls a wider range of parameters than the predecessor system, automatically setting the best possible combination of suspension height, spring rate and damping settings.
