Bmw K 1300 R

The Bmw K 1300 R has a top speed of 249 km/h, produces 173 hp and weighs 228 kg. Motoryk rates it 8.2/10.

BMW K 1300 R был представлен в 2009 году в качестве преемника K 1200 R с увеличенным четырехрядным двигателем объемом 1293 куб. см и усовершенствованной динамикой шасси. Он позиционировался как флагманский «моторный родстер» BMW, сочетающий в себе характеристики супербайка и повседневное удобство использования. Он завоевал репутацию благодаря своему агрессивному стилю и потрясающей мощности. Производство продолжалось до 2016 года, когда в конечном итоге производство было прекращено, поскольку BMW переключила свое внимание на другие платформы в своей линейке.

Watch the Throttle Actuator

The K 1300 R is known for occasional throttle actuator failures, which can cause erratic idle or stalling. Always check service history and test ride for smooth throttle response before buying.

💰

Strong Resale Retention

BMW K 1300 R holds its value better than most naked bikes in its class due to the brand's reputation and limited production numbers. Well-maintained examples remain competitive on the used market even a decade later.

173hp Inline-4 Power

The longitudinally-mounted 1293cc inline-four produces 173hp with a unique forward-tilted engine design that lowers the center of gravity for sharper handling. This engineering makes it one of the most performance-focused naked bikes of its era.

Отзыв покупателя б/у

8.2/10
Лучшее для
Experienced riders wanting thrilling, premium naked performance

"A flawed masterpiece that rewards experienced riders who budget honestly."

$6,500-$11,000 used

The K1300R is BMW's answer to a question nobody asked politely — 173 horsepower in a naked bike with zero apologies. Used examples have settled into serious value territory now, and if you find a clean one under 20k miles, grab it. The inline-four is genuinely stonking, pulling hard from 4,000rpm and absolutely deranged past 8,000. It'll embarrass sportbikes on a twisty road while you sit upright drinking in the scenery. That's a special trick. Here's the honest bit though — maintenance will remind you this is a BMW. Valve checks, throttle body sync, and that notorious ESA suspension system all cost real money at a dealer. Find one with full service history or walk away. The steering is also quite heavy at low speeds, which catches new owners off guard. Buy with 10,000-25,000 miles, check for oil leaks around the sump and cylinder head, and budget £500-800 for a thorough first service. Do that, and you've got one of the most exciting naked bikes of its generation.
