On April 21, 2023, BMW Motorrad officially introduced the R 1250 GS Ultimate Edition in Italy. Adorned in BMW’s Triple Black colorway, the phrase “Ultimate Edition” seems an apt description given how many features and accessories packages the Motorrad has thrown at this machine. A total of six different BMW packages, as well as multiple additional upgrades have been applied to this bike. Just 2,100 units will be assembled and sold worldwide, so let’s take a look at what’s included.
Existing packages applied to the R 1250 GS Ultimate Edition include the Shadow I and II aesthetic packages, which bestow a series of machined billet aluminum parts in exclusive Option 719 finishes. That’s just the surface-level, though. Dig in, and you’ll find both functional and aesthetically pleasing choices made throughout.
