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.
