Contrary to the former model, the frame, wheel carriers and drivetrain come in 
the same colour on all three colour variants of the K 1300 R. This is because 
the black engine and suspension components such as the frame and wheel 
carriers in Asphalt Metallic symbolise the technical character and sporting 
style of the new K 1300 R.
The body colours highlight the newly designed features and the strong 
character of the new K 1300 R, in particular the muscular front end 
and the slender rear. While Silk Metallic stands for masculine strength 
and determination, Lava Orange Metallic creates a sporting, almost 
provocative touch. 
Refl ecting the current Zeitgeist, white is now back in the market, nevertheless 
re-interpreted in this case as Light Grey Metallic with a larger share of metallic 
components emphasising the three-dimensional presence of a motorcycle 
from BMW.
The graphically much more aggressive model designation stands out clearly 
but in full harmony on all colour variants.
