BMW's profilation of this bike |
The new K 1200 R Sport is the latest addition to BMW´s collection of 4 cylinder bikes. This performance sports tourer is a dynamic, more civilized version of the revolutionary K 1200 R, which won Motorcyclist´s Bike of the Year in 2005. It features a semi-faired design that provides protection from wind and rain while allowing the rider to assume a more upright position than other sport bikes. But don´t let its refinements fool you. The K 1200 R Sport features the same 163 hp growl of its unfaired sibling and is capable of rocketing you to motorcycle euphoria in a matter of moments. Ready to hit the throttle? It hits the streets in 2007.
