HOW MANY BMW R1150 RS ARE LEFT?

There are 159 BMW R1150 RS left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 231 BMW R1150 RS that are currently SORNED.

The total number of BMW R1150 RS was highest during 2007 Q4 (484). The number taxed topped out in 2005 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2025 Q1.

Since the total peaked, some 94 (19%) BMW R1150 RS have been scrapped or exported.

During 2021 Q4 the number of BMW R1150 RS that were off the road (SORN) exceeded the number that were licensed for the first time. This could indicate the owners are reluctant to sell or scrap their car as they view them as a potential future classic.

In the last 10 years the total number of BMW R1150 RS has fallen by 32. Licensed models have fallen by 183 and the SORNed total has increased by 151.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 13 BMW R1150 RS models. Taxed models have declined by 72 and the SORNed total has increased by 59.

59% of the remaining 390 BMW R1150 RS in the UK are currently off the road.
