Bangkok--28 Mar--BMW BMW Motorrad is proundly introducing the fourth model in the Company’s most powerful model series. And as the model designation already indicates, K 1200 R Sport is base on the BMW K 1200 R. Perhaps the most essential feature of K 1200 R Sport is the semi-fairing mounted firmly to the frame and bearing the same headlight as on the R 1200 S. Integrated harmoniously into the overall design of the motorcycle, the semi-fairing retains a clear and free view of the impressive engine and running gear technology. The fairing not only emphasizes the sporting character of this Big Bike, but also enhances its wide range of riding opportunities and general use versus the K 1200 R. Offering significantly improved wind protection particularly advantageous at high speeds, BMW K 1200 R Sport is even more suitable for covering long distances at high speeds. It is indeed the ideal motorcycle not only for dedicated riding pleasure on the race track, but also for all-out enjoyment on country roads and motorways, offering the rider the option to adopt a more upright seating position than on the even more sporting and dynamic K 1200 S. As the sister model of the K 1200 R, K 1200 R Sport features the same drivetrain and suspension technology. With maximum output of 120 kW (163hp), kerb weight of just 241 kg or531 lb, and its innovative Duolever and Paralever suspension, the new model offers the highest standard of riding dynamics and performance at all times and under all conditions.
