The BMW R 12 G/S
What a tribute to the air-cooled R 80 G/S and its successors, the R 80 and 100 GS! What a tribute to the legendary sporting triumphs at the Paris Dakar!
The brand-new BMW R 12 G/S carries on the legacy that began to take shape in the mid-1980s and has since gained full momentum. Its striking design resemblance to the R 80 G/S is unmistakable – and rightly so.
Compared to the R 1300 GS and the 1300 GS Adventure, the R 12 G/S clearly highlights the DNA of the original, now almost spartan-looking Monolever G/S – even though it has gained in weight and power. It stands as a true counterpoint within BMW’s lineup to the opulent R 1300 GS models – perfectly embodying the principle: Reduced to the max.
All of this makes the BMW R 12 G/S so appealing that it’s well worth serious consideration!
