The loss does not land all at once here: the BMW R1250GS sheds about 4% in year one and keeps going at much the same rate. From roughly $17,995 it falls to around $14,036 by year five — a five-year loss near $3,959, about $2.17 a day in depreciation.
There is no single sweet spot on the BMW R1250GS: it gives up a similar share of its value every year rather than falling off a cliff, so how long you keep it matters more than what age you buy it at. Explore the full year-by-year curve, trims, and true cost of ownership in the Model Lab above.
