13th February 2010

BMW Motorrad Australia and New Zealand is pleased to announce the arrival and pricing of the new BMW R 1200 RT, R 1200 GS and R 1200 GS Adventure.

These class leading models are due to enter BMW Motorrad showrooms this month, providing customers with more power, more torque and an even more dynamic riding experience.

All models are powered by a 1,170-cc Boxer engine that's been specifically designed and built for higher engine speed ensuring supreme power under all conditions and in all situations.

Like the power plant featured in the BMW HP2 Sport, the new flat-twin power unit in the BMW R 1200 RT, R 1200 GS and R 1200 GS Adventure comes with two overhead, chain-driven camshafts (DOHC) per cylinder, resulting in more muscular torque and acceleration throughout the entire speed range.
