BMW R 12 G/S 2026

The BMW R12 G/S is not a sensible GS, but an emotional one. It is aimed at tall, experienced riders who value character, directness and the classic boxer feeling more highly than comfort, electronics and suitability for everyday use. Those who understand and can ride it will get a bike with real charisma and rare riding pleasure - everyone else will not be happy with it.
