The BMW R 1300 GS Adventure is equipped with the same 1,300cc boxer twin engine found in the standard version, producing an impressive 145bhp at 7,750rpm and 149Nm of peak torque at 6,500rpm. For the first time, BMW has placed a six-speed gearbox beneath the engine in the R 1300 GS.

The ASA offers two modes: Automated Drive (D) and Manual (M). In Drive mode, the system automatically determines the optimal shift points based on factors like lean angle, riding mode, throttle input, and engine speed. Meanwhile, Manual mode allows riders to experience traditional gear shifting with the foot lever. Even in Drive mode, riders can override the system and shift gears manually when desired, offering a balance of convenience and control.
