2026 BMW R 1300 RT Impulse

Your bike, your command

The BMW R 1300 RT is your shortcut to the ultimate touring experience. With its carefully selected equipment for comfort and technology, you are in control – for a top-class experience on long-distance trips. Its powerful boxer engine and 110 lb-ft of torque mean that you and your passenger can enjoy dynamic tours. The visual levity of the design gives the bike a particularly vivacious aesthetic. In short: With this RT, you can make the most of every minute of your journey.

Features may include:

  • Next Level: Dynamic Chassis Adaption

You can look forward to a real highlight in the Dynamic Chassis Adaption (DCA), the optional chassis for the new R 1300 RT that features variable spring rate setting, two individually adjustable damping modes, as well as two independent riding positions. The combination of two riding positions and the adaptable spring rate transforms your RT into two completely different motorcycles.

  • Smart equipment: Audio system and Connectivity Hub

With the Audio Pro sound system, you can set the tone – the quality speakers and 4-channel actuation with various sound profiles provide you with crystal-clear treble and rich bass – for an unforgettable sound experience on tour. It’s also a visual highlight to boot: You can see the gold speaker through the cover.

  • Even more flexible: The luggage system

The new luggage system sets new standards with respect to technology and comfort. The touring Vario case offers flexible volume adjustment, ensuring that you always have plenty of space for your gear. In conjunction with the central locking system, the system ensures the highest level of security with the option to securely lock the case, the storage compartment, and the topcase. Additionally, the cases have interior lighting, and the left-hand case has an integrated power socket.
