Semi-Auto ASA Gearbox
The R1300RS optionally features BMW's ASA Automated Shift Assistant, which uses servos to handle clutch and gearchanges automatically. There is no clutch lever, and the gear lever is an electronic switch.
Radar Cruise Control
For the first time, the RS has optional radar-assisted cruise control that auto-accelerates and decelerates in motorway traffic. BMW's collision avoidance system can also flash a dash warning and apply brakes if it detects a slower or stationary vehicle.
Sportier Than Its Predecessor
The new R1300RS has a more aggressive riding position, a smaller 17-litre fuel tank, and is markedly slimmer, shorter, and lower than the R1250RS. The sportier ergonomics and front-biased weight balance give it a more committed default riding character.
