Bmw K1300s Seat Height
BMW K1300 S Bike Overview
On the face of it, the BMW K1300 S is a simple update of the K1200 S, keeping the overall looks and basic design, with a bit more power.
Dig a little deeper though, and the changes go further than that. The engine is bigger, with a new 1,293cc engine, up 136cc thanks to a 1mm overbore and 5.3mm longer stroke. And that, together with revised electronics, improve throttle response and low-down torque.
On the chassis front, new Duolever components are made from light alloy rather than steel, cutting excess mass from the steering setup and improving feel from the front end.
The electronics took a big step forward though, with updates to the ABS antilock brakes, traction control, new ESA II semi-active electronic suspension and a new quickshifter option too.
The K1300 S was discontinued in 2016, so used bikes will be getting on a bit now. Watch for electrical problems, which can be pricey to sort with genuine parts. Some repairs also need a BMW main dealer to reset computer coding on the ECU, so make sure you have a dealer nearby, and be ready for some hefty labour charges.
But when it's running well, a K1300 S is a real joy to ride: fast, smooth, comfy, and with some of the official BMW accessories fitted, really practical and luxurious too.
