2021 BMW Motorrad range
BMW have just dropped their new colour schemes for model year 2021 but missing from this announcement are the pending 40th anniversary models that we expected to spring forth from Munich. We presume that is because Motorrad might have a few special things in store for the 40th Anniversary of GS for the R 1250 GS in regards to model variants and special editions. We have already seen the 40th Anniversary F 750 and F 850 GS models revealed a fortnight ago (Link), but it looks as though we might have another couple of weeks to wait before seeing the R 1250 GS special models. The top rung Triple Black is rumoured to be making a return for model year 2021 in the GS range, watch this space…
What we do have though is a cavalcade of new colour treatments across the rest of the BMW Motorrad range and sportsbike lovers are in for a treat with the S 1000 RR, Australia’s most popular sportsbike, back in Black Storm Metallic.
BMW Motorrad Australia General Manager Andreas Lundgren
“These comprehensive updates go well beyond simply offering a new colour or two; they will provide whole new looks and even greater breadth of ability with options such as a USB charging port and M Endurance chain for the S 1000 RR.”
The S 1000 XR scores the tri-colour BMW Motorsport livery while the Option 719 range of accessories will now be available across more models than before.
Nigel Harvey
Head of Marketing and Product for BMW Motorrad Australia
“The introduction of traditional and iconic colours for some of our most successful models underlines our commitment to showcasing BMW Motorrad’s history while also providing a highly impressive appearance. We are also delighted to expand our successful Option 719 line and we are certain many of our customers will relish the opportunity to specify these parts to set their motorcycle apart and truly make it their own.”
