For more than 35 years, the flat-twin boxer engine in the BMW Motorrad GS and RT models have stood for powerful and reliable propulsion. With the extensively further advanced boxer engine with BMW ShiftCam technology, the new R1250GS and R1250RT achieve a whole new level of performance and efficiency.<\/h4>\n

For over 25 years, BMW Motorrad has used 4-valve technology, combined with electronic fuel injection and closed-loop catalytic converter technology. Evolved in order to achieve the best possible power and torque delivery, efficiency and environmental compatibility. With the extensively updated boxer engine, the new R1250GS and R1250RT not only achieve new level of power and torque, but significantly optimize refinement and running smoothness \u2013 especially within the lower engine speed range. Further more, the new engine offers improved emission and fuel consumption levels as well as a particularly robust sound.<\/p>\n

For this purpose, BMW ShiftCam Technology has been used for the first time in the serial production of BMW Motorrad engines: this enables variation of the valve timings and valve stroke on the intake side. In addition, the intake camshafts are designed for asynchronous opening of the two intake valves, resulting in enhanced swirl of the fresh, incoming mixture and therefore more effective combustion.<\/p>\n
