I'm a spendthrift. I don't buy new t-shirts until they look like Swiss cheese. I miserly scroll online for discounts whenever I'm forced to purchase anything, searching Reddit and forums galore. And I'd rather build something with scraps I have leftover from other projects, saving that one half block of wood for a rainy day. What I'm saying is, I hate spending money if I don't have to.
New motorcycles are expensive things, though, and it can be tough to get a good deal. Even in today's market, where outside forces have shrunk the available buying pool, dealerships and manufacturers don't want to part ways with their machines for anything less than hella profit on their ends. That, however, can't go on forever, which is when you get deals like the one I found today.
BMW's motorcycles are among the best in the business, being both stout enough to circumnavigate the world, as well as fast enough to blitz World Superbike. But in those attributes comes price, and they're a cool couple racks if you're gonna buy them new.
Yet, how does up to $5,000 off sound on pretty much every motorcycle BMW makes? Pretty good, right? There is a small catch, though, but it isn't as bad as you'd think.
So let's get the catch out of the way right off the bat, and that's you can get up to $5,000 off a new BMW motorcycle, but you're going to have to pick up one from last year, aka, a 2025. Now, the bikes are still new, they've never been off the lot, and they still come with a manufacturer's warranty. They're just unsold stock from 2025, so you're likely to see that motorcycle's value depreciate a tad bit faster as you pull off the lot and head out onto the street or into the dirt.
For those who don't care about depreciation, which I'd argue you shouldn't—they're machines built to be ridden and ridden hard, so do it—then you're looking at some seriously screaming deals on some of the best motorcycles around.
According to BMW, "The Customer Cash offer is applied against MSRP," not tax, title, or any sort of other documents, and includes, " $500 for the CE 02, G 310 R, G 310 GS, F 900 R, F 900 XR; $1,000 for the R 18, R 18 B, R 18 Classic, R 18 Roctane, R 18 Transcontinental; $1,500 for the M 1000 R, M 1000 XR; $2,000 for the F 800 GS, F 900 GS, F 900 GS Adventure, K 1600 GT, K 1600 GTL; $2,500 for the S 1000 RR; $3,000 for the R 1300 GS Adventure; $3,750 for the R 1300 GS; $5,000 for the K 1600 B, K 1600 Grand America."
That's a whole bunch of savings available. There are also amazing financing options, too, with APR as low as 0.9% over 36 months, and a max of 4.9% over the same period. Either way, you're getting money off, and some solid interest rates that put you on a brand-new motorcycle. The $2,000 off the F 900 GS Adventure definitely has my eye, though I also loved my time on the big R 1300, too. But if you're in the market for a new motorcycle, you might want to head over to BMW and see what the dealership still has on the floor.
