BMW R 1300 GS Adventure MC Commute

BMW’s all-new R 1300 GS Adventure proves again that the German marque knows how to define long-distance touring on two wheels. Faster, lighter and smarter than ever, this ultimate globetrotter takes the base R 1300 GS platform and dials it up with a larger-capacity fuel tank, wider bodywork, and serious off-road chops. Powered by BMW’s latest 1300cc ShiftCam Boxer Twin, it delivers gobs of torque and smooth, tractable power whether you’re crawling through rocky trails or cruising down the freeway. The chassis is surprisingly nimble for a bike of this size, thanks to BMW’s honed Telelever front and Paralever rear suspension that keep things planted. Add in cutting-edge tech like radar-powered adaptive cruise control, new global ride modes, and touring-friendly ergonomics, and you’ve got a machine that’s equal parts beast and butler. It’s the kind of bike that doesn’t just take you places–it dares you to find the edge of the map.
