To all bikers, if you’re the kind who loves long rides with style and comfort, BMW just dropped a bombshell – the 2025 BMW R 1300 RT is now in Malaysia! Price starts from RM167,000 and goes up to RM180,000, depending on which edition you pick. Not cheap la, but this one memang got class.

All-New Everything – No Recycled Parts Here!

This isn’t just a facelift, okay? BMW went full-on revamp mode – new engine, new frame, new electronics, the whole works. It’s like they tore up the old blueprint and started fresh.

  • 1300cc Boxer twin engine with ShiftCam tech – gives you a solid 143hp and 149.2Nm torque. Most powerful Boxer engine BMW has ever made!
  • New chassis with a steel main frame and aluminium rear – same DNA as the R 1300 R.
  • Telelever Evo front suspension – taken from the R 1300 GS, gives you smoother, more stable handling.
  • Evo Paralever rear suspension – stiffer and more responsive, with a quick-release axle.
  • 17-inch hollow-spoke wheels – lighter by 1.4kg, helps you corner like a pro.
  • Twin front disc brakes with 4-piston calipers – braking power like kena tarik handbrake.
  • 10.25-inch TFT colour screen – got built-in GPS and a new Connectivity Hub. Basically, your smartphone on two wheels.
  • Riding modes – Road, Rain, Eco, and optional Dynamic & Dynamic Pro for the more adventurous kaki.
  • Riding Assistant – includes Active Cruise Control, Lane Change Warning, and Collision Warning. Like having a riding buddy who’s always alert.

  • Alpine White 3 – RM167,000

DEFENSIVE RIDING

“It doesn’t matter how good you are at riding a motorcycle, heck you could even be a GP rider. But you can’t control others on the road and there will always be that one dumbass that can potentially cause you lots of trouble. Stay safe, stay defensive and stay focused on your bike.”
