BMW R 12 G/S

BMW Motorrad has unveiled the awesome R 12 G/S, a retro-inspired enduro that channels the spirit of the legendary R 80 G/S from the 1980s. Powered by an air/oil-cooled 1,170 cc boxer engine, it delivers 109 hp and 85 lb-ft of torque. Its one-piece tubular spaceframe is paired with fully adjustable upside-down front forks and a Paralever rear swing arm, ensuring a stable yet responsive ride. The 21-inch front and 17-inch rear wheels (18-inch optional) enhance off-road capability, while BMW Motorrad ABS Pro provides reliable braking even in corners.

The R 12 G/S features "Rain," "Road," and "Enduro" riding modes, with "Enduro Pro" available in the Enduro Package Pro. Dynamic Traction Control and engine drag torque control come standard. A round gauge cluster, LED lighting, and Keyless Ride are included, with options like Headlight Pro and Shift Assistant Pro for clutchless shifting. Available in three color schemes, the R 12 G/S blends classic design with modern performance, making it an ideal choice for both rugged trails and smooth highways.
