BMW Motorrad Unveils R 1300 GS Trophy Competition Bike and F 900 GS Trophy Marshal Bike

June 21, 2024

When a total of 22 national teams - including six women's and 16 men's teams, comprising 60 riders - compete for the coveted trophy at the BMW Motorrad International GS Trophy 2024 in Namibia from September 15 to 20, they will rely on a superior workhorse: the BMW R 1300 GS Trophy Competition Bike.

The R 1300 GS Trophy Competition Bike

Developed exclusively for this competition, the R 1300 GS Trophy Competition Bike is built on the R 1300 GS platform, a model that has been a staple since 2008. It is equipped with special accessories to handle all terrains, including a handlebar riser, engine protection bar, underride and frame guard, adjustable gear and brake levers, GS Vario rider footrests, enduro hand levers, headlight protection guard, and white handguard extensions. The bike also features coarse-tread off-road tires on black cross-spoke wheels and a single seat bench, designed to tackle the challenging terrains of Namibia.

Customization and Features

While the BMW Motorrad Competition Bike is not available for sale in its exact competition form, it can be closely replicated using the R 1300 GS Trophy model variant. The bike's striking Racing Blue metallic color, accented with red and white stripes and lettering, combined with a matt white metallic painted rear frame, highlights its sporty off-road capabilities. Radiator guards and robust cross-spoke wheels with optional gold rims further enhance its off-road readiness.

The BMW F 900 GS Trophy Marshal Bike

The GS Trophy Marshals, responsible for guiding participants safely through Namibia’s rugged landscape, will utilize the BMW F 900 GS Trophy Marshal Bike. This bike represents BMW Motorrad's premium offering in the mid-range touring enduro segment, based on the F 900 GS. With 77 kW (105 hp) of power and enhanced off-road capabilities, the F 900 GS Trophy Marshal Bike features a significant 14 kg weight reduction compared to its predecessor, making it adept at handling the challenging terrain.

High-Level Off-Road Expertise

Both the R 1300 GS Trophy Competition Bike and the F 900 GS Trophy Marshal Bike are equipped to offer superior performance and reliability in the toughest conditions. The GS models' off-road pedigree ensures they are well-suited for the Namibia competition, providing both competitors and marshals with the tools needed to navigate the demanding course.
