Perhaps the most essential feature of the new 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 emphasises 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, the new BMW K 1200 R Sport is even more suitable for covering long distances at high speeds. It is the ideal motorcycle not only for track day fun, but also for all-out enjoyment on country roads and blasting down continental motorways, offering the rider the option to adopt a more upright seating position than on the more sporting and dynamic K 1200 S.

As the sister model of the K 1200 R, the new K 1200 R Sport features the same drivetrain and suspension technology. With maximum output of 163 hp, kerb weight of just 24 kg, 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.

Offering an ample choice of accessories carried over in most cases from the K 1200 R, the new K 1200 R Sport ensures a truly outstanding riding experience particularly on long distances.
