BMW R 1300 GS vs Honda CBR650R
ESTIMATED SIMULATION
Run the comparison →The BMW R 1300 GS (2024) and the Honda CBR650R (2025) are compared with the same Moto Kıyas physics model under identical conditions: flat dry asphalt, no wind, a 75 kg rider and no passenger. The BMW R 1300 GS is a adventure bike with 1,300 cc, 143.5 hp and 237 kg; the Honda CBR650R is a sport bike with 649 cc, 93.9 hp and 211 kg. Power-to-weight with the rider: 459.9 hp/ton versus 328.2 hp/ton. On this measure the BMW R 1300 GS is 40% ahead.
In the simulation the BMW R 1300 GS covers 0-100 km/h (speedometer) in 2.96 s and the Honda CBR650R in 3.33 s; the BMW R 1300 GS is quicker by 0.38 s. In the 100-0 km/h brake test, braking distance without the 0.3 s reaction time is 41.4 m for the BMW R 1300 GS (with ABS) and 36.4 m for the Honda CBR650R (with ABS). The Honda CBR650R stops 5.0 m shorter. Calculated top speed: 225 km/h (manufacturer claim) versus 220 km/h (manufacturer claim).
All values are an estimated simulation, not road-test measurements. Technical data comes from the sources listed below; the model uses model-specific parameters calibrated against published road tests for both.

Data sources and calibration
Specifications: the sources below (manufacturer pages, plus road-test or spec sites where the manufacturer gives no figure). Acceleration, braking and top speed: Moto Kıyas physics simulation (power/torque curve, gearing, drag, traction and wheelie limits, ABS assumption), calibrated against published road tests where available. Estimated, not measured.
