Description[]

BMW motorcycles are strongly associated with touring bikes. The K1200S, released in 2004, only reinforces that image, if you consider very fast touring. It can also be considered a new-generation BMW. In addition to being a masterpiece that BMW heralded as its first supersport machine, this model was also the first fitted with BMW's cross-frame inline-4-cylinder engine, designed with a shorter stroke and a straight intake system.

BMW realised that its objectives for the K1200S were just not possible with the longitudinally mounted engine employed in the K Series up to that point, as a shortened stroke and larger bore would make the engine too long, and the intake tract had to be extended outward to achieve direct intake.

The newly-employed Duolever front suspension on the K1200S has the same anti-dive action as the Telelever BMW used previously, but with a more compact design and enhanced potential befitting a supersport bike. The front and rear suspension units on this racing-modified machine exhibit more flexible movement and a high damping force. The front and rear rims are made of forged magnesium.

BMW also added a racing engine management system to the power unit and installed a lightweight, high-efficiency, 4-into-1-type exhaust system, effectively raising maximum output on the K1200S to 189 hp at 10,250 r.p.m.
