The BMW K1300R may look extremely similar to the K1200S, but the K1300R has been finely tuned to make an all-round sensational bike.
The suspension and traction control have been updated electronically and BMW offer more features than even before with this bike – such as real indicators instead of switches that were just set on completely confusing riders.
The design of this bike differs slightly to the BMW K1200S due to its taller and larger handlebars which allows you to control this heavy bike with relative ease. The four cylinder engine sits at an impressive 1293cc with an 173bhp that gives a huge power boost and a great amount of torque so, to put simply, it is incredibly fast. The build quality has improved from the older model but it will still require attention to keep it working at optimum levels, to retain its lightening-fast speed.
With this said, it should come as no surprise that the BMW K1300R comes in at £9500 or just under £10,700 with the ABS and Electronic Suspension Adjustment fitted on, making it quite an expensive model.
If you are looking for more add-ons from BMW, the price is only set to increase meaning that the price of the insurance will look pretty hefty. However, there are some packages available within BMW that are designed to give the bike the modifications while also saving you money, such as the ABS and ASC package.
