BMW K1300R Dynamic (2012-2013) Specs, Performance & Photos

In 2012, the German motorcycle manufacturer launched the BMW K1300R Dynamic, a special edition machine that took the stunning look and performance to a new level. The factory-fitted option as standard made every rider enjoy the exhilarating speed, long-distance capabilities, excellent handling, and massive performance.

The BMW K1300R's story started back in 2008 as a naked sports machine that replaced the K1200R. The bike was considered a muscle bike due to its high power output and fast acceleration. It also was the fastest accelerating naked motorcycle, beating the Suzuki B-King by one-tenth of a second.

Although the bike was offered for sale in the smaller Canadian market, it was never offered in the United States market. In December 2013, a modified BMW K1300R appeared in the Bollywood film Dhoom 3, ridden by Aamir Khan.

The 2012 BMW K1300R Dynamic packed standard features, such as Tire Pressure Control (TPM), Automatic Stability Control (ASC), Electronic Suspension Adjustment (ESA II), sports wheels, an on-board computer, heated grips, and race-derived Gear Shift Assist.

As for the power figures, the 2012 BMW K1300R Dynamic had installed underneath its fuel tank a 1,293cc four-stroke four-cylinder liquid-cooled engine managed by an electronically-controlled fuel injection system, delivering 175 hp with a peak force at 9,250 rpm and 140 Nm (103 lb-ft) torque at 8,250 rpm.
