Dealer Comments
Five years after BMW decided to create a completely new sports bike, the K1200S has become a reality. It is an engineering revolution for the German brand. This is the first time BMW has produced a high-revving, powerful (by modern standards ? 167hp claimed) inline four-cylinder motorcycle.^^With its new engine transversely mounted in a twin-spar frame, the K1200S could be considered a rival to the Honda CBR1100XX, the Kawasaki ZX-12R, and even Suzuki?s Hayabusa, leaving the unique niche occupied by its opposed twin-engined bikes, and even the rather conservative market of the older K-series designs.
