Secara tepat, gergasi Jerman itu menjual 202,563 unit dan berjaya memecah tanda 200,000 unit buat tahun keempat berturut-turut. Walaubagaimanapun, tahun ini bukanlah tahun rekod baharu kerana jumlah jualan keseluruhan menurun hampir 8,000 unit berbanding 210,408 unit pada 2024.

Walaupun begitu, beberapa pasaran mencatat prestasi rekod, termasuk Itali, Sepanyol, Jepun, Australia, Portugal, Kanada, Belanda, dan Malaysia.

Bulan terbaik bagi BMW Motorrad adalah Disember, dengan 15,109 motosikal terjual, membantu menutup tahun dengan prestasi kukuh. Ia merupakan Disember ketiga terbaik dalam sejarah jenama itu.

Markus Flasch, CEO BMW Motorrad berkata: “Dalam persekitaran pasaran yang mencabar, kami memanfaatkan kekuatan kami dan berprestasi lebih baik daripada sebelumnya di banyak pasaran dan segmen.”

Di luar Eropah, Amerika Syarikat (14,869), Brazil (14,488) dan China (10,555) menyumbang secara signifikan kepada jumlah keseluruhan.

Sudah tentu, model kembara berenjin boxer BMW sekali lagi membuktikan ia paling laris, dengan R 1300 GS Adventure mendahului carta, diikuti rapat oleh rakan sejenis yang lebih kecil, R 1300 GS dengan 32,555 unit terjual. Sementara itu, S 1000 RR syarikat itu juga terbukti popular, mengumpulkan 11,643 jualan sepanjang 2025.

“Kedudukan terkemuka ini kami peroleh berkat komitmen terhadap kepimpinan teknologi, fokus strategik konsisten terhadap kekuatan jenama, dan tidak kurang pentingnya, tawaran produk yang menarik. BMW Motorrad akan terus membina pemacu kejayaan ini, sebab itulah saya memandang ke tahun 2026 dengan keyakinan tinggi.”

Eropah kekal sebagai pasaran terkuat jenama itu, merangkumi lebih separuh daripada jumlah pendaftaran (118,814) – peningkatan sedikit tahun ke tahun. Jerman kekal sebagai pasaran tunggal terbesar BMW Motorrad secara global dengan 25,516 unit terjual, diikuti oleh Perancis (19,019), Itali (16,692), dan Sepanyol (14,005).

To be exact, the German giant sold 202,563 and broke through the 200,000-unit mark for the fourth consecutive year. However, it was not a record-breaking year as overall sales was down nearly 8,000 units compared to 210,408 in 2024.

Even so, several markets posted record-breaking performances, including Italy, Spain, Japan, Australia, Portugal, Canada, the Netherlands, and Malaysia.

The best month for BMW Motorrad was December, which saw 15,109 bikes sold, helping to end the year on a strong note. It the third-best December in the brand’s history.

Markus Flasch, BMW Motorrad CEO said: “In a demanding market environment we played to our strengths and performed better than ever in many markets and segments.

Outside Europe, the USA (14,869), Brazil (14,488) and China (10,555) made significant contributions to the overall total.

Of course, BMW’s boxer-engined adventure models once again proved to be the most popular sellers, with the R 1300 GS Adventure topping the charts, closely followed by its smaller stablemate, the R 1300 GS with 32,555 units cleared. Meanwhile, the firm’s S 1000 RR, also proved popular, racking up 11,643 sales throughout 2025.

“We owe this leading position to our commitment to technological leadership, a consistent strategic focus on brand strength and, not least, an attractive product offering. BMW Motorrad will continue to build on these success drivers, which is why I look to 2026 with great confidence.”

Europe remained the brand’s strongest market, accounting for well over half of total registrations (118,814) – a slight increase year-on-year. Germany stayed BMW Motorrad’s single biggest market globally with 25,516 units sold, followed by France (19,019), Italy (16,692), and Spain (14,005).

Anakee Adventure 2 ialah tayar dengan nisbah 80% jalan raya / 20% off-road, dan diletakkan di antara Anakee Road dan Anakee Wild 50/50 dalam barisan produk syarikat. Dengan kata lain, tayar baharu ini direka untuk penunggang off-road yang kasual dan mengutamakan prestasi di jalan raya serta ketahanan jangka panjang. Menurut Michelin, terdapat beberapa perubahan penting termasuk kompaun bunga baharu berasaskan silika yang direka untuk meningkatkan cengkaman dalam cuaca basah, sementara ujian dalaman menunjukkan peningkatan jarak kira-kira 7% di depan dan 21% di belakang berbanding Anakee Adventure sebelumnya.

Michelin juga memberi tumpuan kepada pengurangan bunyi sebagai satu lagi sasaran pembangunan. Hasilnya, Michelin menyatakan bahawa pembinaan semula dan corak tapak tayar menghasilkan tahap bunyi yang lebih rendah, yang berupaya mengurangkan keletihan penunggang dalam perjalanan jauh di jalan berturap. Tayar ini mempunyai penarafan M+S (mud+snow/tanah liat+salji) dan menampilkan susunan tapak yang bertujuan mengekalkan daya cengkaman di permukaan tidak berturap, selain kekal dalam kategori jalan raya/luar jalan 80/20 hingga 70/30 yang biasa digunakan untuk tayar pelancongan aventure, kata Michelin.

Perubahan utama:

• Cengkaman basah yang lebih baik, berkat sebatian berasaskan silika prestasi tinggi baharu.
• Jangka hayat lebih panjang: +7% di hadapan dan +21% di belakang* berbanding generasi sebelumnya.
• Pengurangan ketara dalam bunyi yang dirasai untuk perjalanan lebih lancar dan kurang meletihkan.
• Tanda M+S dan corak tapak dioptimumkan untuk daya cengkaman lebih berkesan di denai.

Pembinaannya menggabungkan beberapa teknologi sedia ada Michelin, termasuk bunga dua kompaun (bahagian tengah lebih keras, bahu lebih lembut), dan struktur radial diperkukuh dengan aramid untuk meningkatkan kestabilan dan rintangan terhadap perubahan bentuk bawah beban. Corak bunga juga telah direka semula dengan matlamat mengimbangi kawalan di jalan raya dengan prestasi yang dijangka di permukaan longgar.

Pemasangan meliputi kebanyakan motosikal aventure utama di pasaran, termasuk BMW R1250/1300GS, Honda Africa Twin, Yamaha Tenere, Ducati Multistrada, Triumph Tiger, KTM Super Adventure, Suzuki V-Strom, Aprilia Tuareg, Moto Guzzi V85, Kawasaki Versys dan banyak lagi.

The Anakee Adventure 2 is a 80% road / 20% off-road tire and will sit between the Anakee Road and the 50/50 Anakee Wild in the company’s lineup. In other words, the new tyre is designed for casual dirt riders seeking road performance and longevity. According to Michelin, there are several important changes including new silica‑based compounds designed to improve wet‑weather grip, while internal testing showed an increase in mileage of approximately 7% at the front and 21% at the rear compared to the previous Anakee Adventure.

Michelin also focused on noise reduction was another development target. As a result, Michelin states that the revised construction and tread pattern produce lower perceived noise levels, which may translate to less rider fatigue on longer pavement stretches. The tire carries an M+S rating and features a tread layout intended to maintain traction on unpaved surfaces, keeping it around the 80/20 to 70/30 on‑road/off‑road category commonly used for adventure‑touring tires, says Michelin.

Key changes: 

• Enhanced wet-grip, thanks to new high-performance silica-based compounds.
• Improved longevity: +7% at the front and +21% at the rear* compared with the previous generation.
• Significant reduction in perceived noise for smoother, less tiring journeys.
• M+S marking and optimized tread pattern for more effective traction on trails.

The construction incorporates several of Michelin’s existing technologies, including a dual‑compound tread (harder center, softer shoulders), and a reinforced radial structure with aramid to improve stability and resistance to deformation under load. The tread pattern has also been redesigned with the goal of balancing road manners with predictable behavior on loose terrain.

Fitment covers most of the major adventure motorcycles on the market, including the BMW R1250/1300GS, Honda Africa Twin, Yamaha Tenere, Ducati Multistrada, Triumph Tiger, KTM Super Adventure, Suzuki V-Strom, Aprilia Tuareg, Moto Guzzi V85, Kawasaki Versys and many others.
