BMW R 1200 R 2011

After just a few kilometres on the R, you feel as if you've been allowed to spend a day in a tailor-made suit tailored with a lot of experience and tradition. You behave more cultivated than usual, a little more mature, a little more polite, definitely proud.

Stylish

Either it was a stroke of luck or the best developers were at work - handlebars, geometry, seat, knee angle, footrests - it just fits really well for the majority of Central Europeans. All in all, there is still no motorbike that can kill the GS.

Optimal wind protection

comfortable seat

good posture

positive ergonomics

weather robust

quiet chassis.

Seat a little too low.
