BMW K1200rs
2004 model:
BMW’s most powerful two-wheeler, the 130hp K 1200RS is a tornado on two wheels. Built as a sports-touring bike, anyone who rides one knows that it’s much closer to a pure sport bke in spirit and performance. No wonder: since it was born in the Alps and perfected on the Autobahn.
A balanced concept.
The BMW K 1200 RS.
The K 1200 RS is the shortest connection between high-tech and passion. Whether two people want to go for long rides in comfort or whether you want to do some sporty riding, the K 1200 RS provides the dynamic power for that spontaneous adrenalin kick and individual comfort on long trips. The ergonomic conditions for rider and pillion are outstanding as well as the optimised wind and weather protection. Freedom of mobility knows no compromises!
The powerful inline 4-cylinder engine provides the necessary power. In conjunction with the 6-speed gearbox it is a real powerpack - with high safety reserves. The sports tourer features the BMW Integral ABS as standard in a partially integrated version in accordance with its sporty character. K 1200 RS - You’re free to decide.
