2022 BMW R 1250 GS: The Legendary Adventure Bike That Still Leads the Pack

Four Decades of Dominance – This BMW’s Legendary Adventure Machine Stays Ahead of the Pack.

2022 BMW R 1250 GS

For over 40 years, the BMW R 1250 GS has defined the adventure motorcycle segment, blending on-road refinement with off-road capability. The 2022 model continues this legacy, offering cutting-edge technology, improved performance, and unmatched versatility, making it a top choice for riders who want a do-it-all machine capable of light off-road excursions and long-distance touring.

Evolution of an Icon

The GS isn’t just another adventure bike, it’s the original, the benchmark against which all others are measured. While competitors flood the market, the R 1250 GS stands apart thanks to its decades of continuous refinement. BMW’s commitment to innovation ensures that each iteration improves upon the last, keeping the GS at the forefront of the ADV world.

Performance & Engineering: A Smooth, Powerful Ride

At the heart of the R 1250 GS is its legendary 1,254cc boxer twin, enhanced with BMW’s ShiftCam technology. This system adjusts valve timing for stronger low-end torque and smoother power delivery, making it incredibly responsive in all riding conditions.

Power comes with 136 hp @ 7,750 rpm and torque 145 Nm @ 6,250 rpm. The weight of the bikes is 268 kg (wet). The engine’s characteristic boxer punch ensures effortless acceleration, whether cruising on highways or navigating gravel trails.

  • Adaptive LED Headlight – Improves visibility on dark roads.
  • 7 Riding Modes (including ECO, Rain, and Road) – Optimize performance for any condition.
  • Dynamic Traction Control (DTC) & ABS Pro – Ensures stability on varied terrain.
  • Hill Start Control (HSC) – Makes steep inclines a non-issue.
  • Heated Seat & Grips – Keeps riders comfortable in cold weather.
  • TFT Display with Connectivity – Provides navigation, music, and call management.

40th Anniversary Edition: A Special Tribute

For 2022, BMW introduced a 40th Anniversary Edition, featuring exclusive paint schemes and badging to celebrate the GS’s heritage. It’s a collector’s dream, blending nostalgia with modern performance.
