Why the BMW R 1300 GS Automatic (ASA) for the Canary Islands
The R 1300 GS ASA is the GS for the rider who wants the flagship adventure bike without the clutch work. BMW’s Automated Shift Assistant uses two actuators to work the clutch and the gearbox, so there is no clutch lever: in D mode it changes gear by itself, in M mode you shift with your foot as usual. That makes the stop-start traffic of Las Palmas, the hairpins of the GC-21 up to Pico de las Nieves and steep hill starts in the mountain villages much more relaxed, especially two-up. Adaptive ride height lowers the bike when you stop, so the 820 mm seat is easier to reach than on the standard GS. Everything else is the R 1300 GS: 145 hp boxer-twin, shaft drive and a 19 L tank. Best for an experienced rider on a full A licence. It costs €5 a day more than the manual R 1300 GS.

A full motorcycle licence (category A). 145 hp is well above the A2 limit. If your licence is limited to automatic motorcycles, contact us before you book.
How does the ASA gearbox work?
Two electromechanical actuators work the clutch and the gearshift, so there is no clutch lever. In D mode the bike changes gear by itself. In M mode you shift with the foot lever as usual, without using a clutch.
