Does anybody have a theory as to whether BMW will release new colours in late 2020 for the R1250GS. Saw a few things on YouTube about a possible Bumblebee Paint scheme for the 40th Anniversary.

Any thoughts?

Thanks. A proper answer. Hope you are enjoying the 1260. My brother still talks about his test ride on one.

Who is doing a decent variety of colours anyway? Triumph - red, white, back and khaki, Yamaha blue, white and black, KTM orange, white or a bit of black, Moto Guzzi McDonalds, grey, dark red, Ducati red, silver white, Kawasaki green, black white etc etc. No-one is being imaginative because the whole market has become very plain and conservative. Maybe because the funky colours didn’t sell, maybe because they got nicked much more often. Who knows?

Quite like this

They seem nowadays to list colours like matt hearing aid beige or a fetching shades of metallic dog cack as the standard colour scheme but will always offer a half decent jazzy paint scheme for the more discerning customers with a larger wallet

The Germans have always had a bit of a penchant for rather horrid metallic browns , beiges and gold paint schemes for their home market cars
 
If you can keep it as a secret, I heard from somebody that knows a person who perhaps works for BMW that the 2021 paint scheme will be a tribute to the 1983 BMW K1. Expect red with yellow stripes and blue with orange!
