BMW made today public the first official pictures of the much bragged about 2009 K 1300 S, a bike that carries on the fame of the innovative K series by retaining the Duolever front suspension and single-sided swingarm with integrated shaft.
The new model is expected to make quite an impression on the industry’s scene not as much due to its 228 kg and 1292cc inline-four engine that is capable of 175 hp, but more due to the optional quickshifter and the new ESA 2 (Electronic Suspension Adjustment) system.
Overall, the design hasn’t been changed except the slightly redesigned side fairings and black finished front air scoops. For 2009, the BMW K 1300 S will be available Dark Gray painted with sportier colored graphics (white/red/gray), Metallic Gray and Orange.
The price hasn’t been made public yet.
