BMW R 1300 GS vs KTM 250 EXC-F

The BMW R 1300 GS (2024) and the KTM 250 EXC-F (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 KTM 250 EXC-F is a enduro bike with 250 cc, unlisted power and unlisted weight. Power-to-weight with the rider: 459.9 hp/ton versus no data.

In the simulation the BMW R 1300 GS covers 0-100 km/h (speedometer) in 2.96 s and the KTM 250 EXC-F in 7.92 s; the BMW R 1300 GS is quicker by 4.97 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 51.5 m for the KTM 250 EXC-F (ABS unknown, class assumption: no ABS). The BMW R 1300 GS stops 10.1 m shorter. Calculated top speed: 225 km/h (manufacturer claim) versus 123 km/h (estimated from power and drag).

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 the BMW R 1300 GS and class-average calibration (no accepted model-specific road test) for the KTM 250 EXC-F. Missing manufacturer data (power, torque, weight) is estimated by class regression, not measured. Open the interactive app (currently in Turkish) to watch the run side by side and change the load.
