THE BMW R 12 S

TRIBUTE TO A LEGEND

The R 12 S brings legendary genetics to the streets in a modern and stylish way. It combines the shapes and colors of the ultimate racing bike from the 1970s, the R 90 S, with modern technology, comfort, and riding dynamics, as well as extensive standard equipment. Based on the R 12 nineT, it gives you a unique riding experience with an unmistakable boxer punch – pure #Soulfuel. Let’s paint the town orange.

"LEGENDS LIVE FOREVER"

Modern art meets an icon

The form and details clearly reflect the design language of the 1970’s. Every detail expressed passion and exclusivity. With bright Lava Orange Metallic paint, the bike brings its unique style to the streets. 

• Lava Orange — The aspects that pay tribute to the R 90 S can be found in the colors; the red double linework and the orange contrast stitching on the seat. Brushed aluminum on the tank and seat hump creates silver accents.

The stylish color scheme and exclusive details are a nod to the R 90 S. The black fork and handlebars, as well as the cockpit fairing with a dark, tinted windscreen, all create strong contrasts.

Create your own

The R 12 S is already a work of art as it is. If there is any equipment you want to add on, you can choose from the same selection of accessory products available for the R 12 nineT. Among other options, these include the short rear, the titanium rear silencer, and the practical side bags.

"IT'S A BOXER, BABY!"

That boxer feeling

Even the engine is legendary. Today, as ever, the boxer is the drive of choice when you’re looking for a unique riding experience. With the three riding modes, RAIN, ROAD, and DYNAMIC, you can adapt your riding experience to suit your preferences.

An incomparable riding experience

The ergonomics, which are based on the R 12 nineT, allow you to maintain a dynamic sitting posture. ABS Pro and DTC provide support on the road. The features of the comfort package are included as standard and give you a more intensive riding experience: from Shift Assistant Pro to Hill Start Control. In colder temperatures, the heated grips keep your hands nice and warm. There’s only one problem: it’s hard to drag yourself off this bike.

Ride on & on & on.
