Overview

The BMW R 1250 RT is a high-end touring bike built for riders who want luxury, power, and comfort on long rides. Although technically more touring than naked, it shares many performance traits valued by naked sports bike fans: a strong boxer engine, advanced electronics, and premium comfort.

BMW R 1250 RT specifications include a 1254 cc air/liquid-cooled boxer twin load-bearing engine, delivering about 132.2 HP at 7,750 rpm and 143 Nm torque at 6,250 rpm. Standard features are a large 10.25-inch TFT display with navigation, Integral ABS Pro, dynamic suspension (Electronic Suspension Adjustment), riding modes, cruise control, and LED lighting. Mileage is claimed at around 20-21 kmpl.

In Bangladesh, the BMW R 1250 RT is not officially sold. Import costs, duties, and limited availability make it a premium segment bike. The estimated landed price is around BDT 40,00,000 or more, depending on model year, features, and seller.
