Feel the spirit

Ready to go wild: the R 12 G/S will awaken your desire for adventure. As soon as you get on it, you’ll feel the spirit of its role model, the legendary R 80 G/S. Start a journey that will clear your mind. Get off the streets and start having fun. Who’s going to stop you? The purist design of the retro enduro is only complete when it’s caked in mud. The Boxer sound is the perfect soundtrack for your wild ride. Back in the city, but still far removed from the daily grind. Hop off and feel the joy – pure #Soulfuel.

Features may include:

  • LED headlight

With the X-shaped light icons, the LED headlight embodies the pure off-road spirit, and helps ensure that obstacles are visible, even in the dark.

  • Enduro suspension

Designed for off-roading: with 8.2” of spring travel at the fork and 7.8” of spring travel at the rear suspension strut. Excels on the streets: for precise and direct rideability with the typical BMW driving dynamics.

  • Confidence is along for the ride: ABS Pro

For enhanced riding confidence when cornering and leaning: the partial integral brake system with ABS Pro.

  • Authentic: retro off-road boxer

An unmistakeable centerpiece: the appropriately staged air/oil-cooled boxer engine.

  • Comfort package with Shift Assistant Pro

The Shift Assistant Pro in the optional comfort package allows for smooth and rapid gear changes in both directions, without having to use the clutch.

  • And action: Rallye seat

One of the three seat versions available is the optional Rallye seat. It lets the rider sit 0.8” higher. Consistent geometry and the straight contour are designed to meet your off-roading needs.
