All these days i was wondering how shiftcam works, after watching your video i finally understood the mechanics behind the shiftcam technology.... Thank you very much for this informative video
Very well produced video. Where do you get the graphics from? I have an R1250R and it pulls like mad even from 2000 rpm in top gear. Despite the manufacturers figure of 45.mpg, I am getting an average of 63 mpg (measured by tank fills), a bit less than what the TFT says, and although I respect speed limits I am not exactly sparse with the throttle.
stuart clark No I haven’t changed my bike. I tried the 1250 and it was lovely to ride but there wasn’t enough change for me to warrant spending the money. It was like riding my triple black. Honestly I enjoy riding my bike so much it would have to be something very special for me to part with it.
Entendi, o eixo de cames das válvulas de entrada se move na horizontal e expõe para essas válvulas de entrada um cames maior que preme mais a válvula em baixos regimes e outro cames menor em alto regime que aproveita melhor a expansão da explosão..
So basically bmw finally caught up to the tech in my 03 Honda Element. Way to keep up

Thank you I had hoped i made it as simple as possible when I filmed it.
My first BMW with the 1250 shift cam, What an engine! Best of both worlds love it
The Vtec of BMW huh
Apologies for being slightly negative. The increased gas velocity at lower powers improves combustion and torque. A win win scenario :)
Peter Burridge I appreciate you telling me. It’s a brilliantly designed peace of engineering that you can feel when you ride one👍
Thanx! Very Adventure-esque music, pass on my compliments to the composer...
Great explanation! Thanks man. Also, typo, it's "an adventure bike" not "a adventure bike".
Nice One Buddy.... as always :). Thank You for taking the time to explain the internal workings of the new Shift Cam Motor on GS/GSA 1250.
some VTEC, yO!
Great explanation thankyou 👍
VTEC?
An explanation of the benefits at lower outputs, other than just fuel economy, would have completed the video.
Peter Burridge That’s just what I thought after I posted it. It’s not bad you get the idea of it. Thanks for you input 👍
Is there a lag when the shift cam does it's "thing". ??
You cannot feel the change over, even when gunning the throttle😂
Nice explanation. Looks like it only operates the inlet valves? Is the valve clearance adjustment procedure the same for Shift Cam motors?
DervMan I have no idea this is basically how BMW explained it to me. There’s more to it

Its from official bmw mottorad channel
So have you replaced your 2017 triple black for the new 1250 ?

BMW motorbikes are elephants.
I love elephants
it was ok,
Quite literally the slowest video I've seen. 85 seconds? The video is over 3 minutes long with an awful 1 minute intro!
Fair enough
