New 2021 RT 1250

[Arsey]

Just opened up Facebook to see a live broadcast from BMW. Dunno why as I don’t subscribe .
Anyway , not sure if it’s been mentioned elsewhere .

New design , daytime running lights , radar guided cruise control . Huge TFT etc etc

All new speakers/hifi system

10 inch TFT

Integrated mapping

The things I do for you boys !!!



Wireless phone charging

Bike weighs 279kgs wet.

222 kg load capacity.

Just had a play with the configurator and if you add virtually everything such as snazzy paint,all the audio options etc , it comes to a smidge over £20k so seems to be better value than the latest GS1250,which is a similar price but with less toys.

OOhh I was looking forward to this update.

RBW.

 

[stever1]

I like it.

It’s looking good might have to raid the piggy bank to update the 1200RT

 

[Zx9man]

Looks to be an interesting option to the gsa

 

[Arsey]

Shame there’s no black/yellow seat option . Might look quite cool . Might !!!

The new screen with integrated GPS looks good.

I thought it looked like they hadn't updated the configurator with the new bike?

I looked at the new configurator, it is showing the new bike but not the new screen, a bit strange ?. Maybe that isn't fully ready yet

Eh? Bog standard white with audio system, SOS and Cruise is £22K. Add snazzy paint, colour matched topcase and some options and it’ll be nudging £25K

Must have still been the old configurator then .

I think you have ticked too many boxes, sport paint the 3 packs, central locking and SOS £18800

Test riding the currant 1250 rt in two weeks time the 1250 gs exclusive could be going

 

[Old Codger]

After the 1200gs lc my 18 1200rt le has been a revelation it handles better and is surprisingly nimble handling. Suits very well as I don’t attempt off road on it .The new rt will be very tempting .

Nice with the tft dash, clearly thats what people like and expect but they managed to make a perfectly good looking front with the circular day lights, into a squinty japanesey one. Looks like an FJR, which is a step backwards.

It will be great bike overall no doubt, as have been all its forefathers.

You must be seeing something different. When I look at it there are two options - std bike starting at £15815 and LE at £20,035. The std bike has only one package - comfort pack at £1400. I got to the price above via the LE option + std alpine white + active cruise, audio system and SOS.

I think that when Bayman looked the configurator hadn't been updated.
