Photos! / BMW R1300 GS Adventure

Last week, we showed you the first official look at the new 2024 BMW R1300 GS Adventure. Feedback on the new model’s looks were mixed, but we only ran a few pix in that piece. Now, here are the rest of the photos, starting with the design shots. Remember, BMW has a new big boss in the design department (Alexander Buckan). Buckan took over in late 2023, so while he would have had input on this bike, it was most certainly underway long before he came to the helm.

BMW’s Automated Shift Assistant (ASA, for short) is its new twist-and-go transmission. This offers push-button shifting as well as auto shifting, with no foot lever for gear changes. Here are BMW’s photos of the bikes configured for this usage. Remember that this is optional; buyers can certainly have a standard six-speed shift setup, as that is the R1300 GS Adventure’s stock configuration.

For Mike’s full write-up on the new bike, click here. Obviously, the machine is based around the new R1300 platform, with the updated flat twin engine combined with a new chassis and a larger fuel tank, as is standard on Adventure-series models for years now. But note that it doesn’t come with a 21-inch front wheel; the only current options are 19-inch front wheels. Does that suggest we’ll see an even more rugged version of the machine, the much-rumored M-series model, with the larger hoop up front? Stay tuned.
