MODEL DESCRIPTION


"Even the long road home will feel too short...Combining the potent torque of the BMW Boxer engine with the sophisticated design and smooth ride of a premium-touring machine, the R 1200 RT delivers an optimal mix of excitement and ergonomics. It's equally at home nimbly leaning into a Rocky Mountain pass or gliding gracefully over a grey slash of Montana highway. A two-section adjustable seat, electric windshield, and BMW's rider-tested Paralever and Telelever suspension systems all contribute to the uncompromising comfort of the R 1200 RT - mile after mile after mile. Add to this a modular luggage system with plenty of capacity, and optional extras like the Navigator II system, and the only limit to how far you can go is how much time you take off of work and how much gas money you have in your pocket."
