We have got hold of some more great images of BMW’s 2019 R 1250 R that we thought pertinent to share in this gallery.
Capacity for the new model is now up to 1254cc and the new BMW ShiftCam Technology produces an increase in power across the entire engine RPM range.
Starting at $21,240 +ORC in base form, the BMW R 1250 range is covered by BMW Motorrad Australia’s recently upgraded three-year, unlimited-kilometre warranty.
Some of the machines below feature HP accessories or Option 719 accoutrements, thus are not in standard trim.
For decades, the boxer engine in the BMW Motorrad R models has been a big part of the appeal of the models. The engine has gone through many generations and improvement over the years but the unique lilt and timbre of the BMW horizontally opposed twin is what keeps people coming back for more. The new R 1250 R continues this tradition and will hit Australia sometime during the first quarter of 2019.

2019 BMW R 1250 R
A capacity increase to 1254cc for 2019 and the new BMW ShiftCam Technology produces an increase in power across the entire engine RPM range along with reduced emissions and fuel consumption levels, optimised running smoothness and refinement.
BMW ShiftCam Technology enables variation of both the camshaft duration and lift on the intake valves.
There are two riding modes available as standard while Automatic Stability Control ASC is also a standard fitment and ensures a high level of riding safety due to the best possible traction. The set-off assistant Hill Start Control is likewise a standard feature in all three R 1250 R variant, enabling convenient set-off on slopes.
“Riding Modes Pro” is now available as an optional equipment item, featuring the additional riding mode “Dynamic” and “Dynamic Pro” (configurable), Dynamic Traction Control DTC, and in the R 1250 GS Adventurre also the riding modes “Enduro” and “Enduro Pro” (configurable). DTC enables even more efficient and safe acceleration, especially when banking. ABS Pro offers even greater safety when braking, even in banking position.
The new Dynamic Brake Control DBC provides additional safety when braking, also in difficult situations, by avoiding unintentional accelerator activation. By means of intervention in the engine control, drive torque is reduced during braking so as to make full use of the braking power at the rear wheel. This keeps the motorcycle stable and shortens the braking distance.
With the optional equipment BMW Motorrad Dynamic ESA “Next Generation”, damping automatically adapts to the situation according to riding state and manoeuvres, and there is also automatic compensation in all load states. This allows finely tuned adaptation of the motorcycle to riding states, achieving optimum damping comfort and a very stable ride response.
The new boxer models now feature Bluetooth Connectivity as standard including a 6.5-inch full-colour TFT screen. In conjunction with the standard BMW Motorrad Multi-Controller this enables the rider to access vehicle and connectivity functions swiftly and conveniently even with a gloved hand.
The new R 1250 R can also be equipped with the Option 719 Classic or Sport Wheels as well as exclusive paintwork and Option 719 seat. An HP sports silencer is likewise available ex works for all three new boxer models.
