K1200GT

The sportiest sports-tourer you will ever ride, this high-tech big brother of the blistering K1200S shares the new BMW Duolever front suspension, optional ESA and new transverse-mounted 152 bhp inline 4-cylinder engine.  It's narrower, sleeker and 40 lbs. lighter than the predecessor GT, has 22% more range and 19% more payload.  Add the all new height-adjustable handlebars and a narrow design, adjustable saddle optimized to total leg length, and you have:  Excellence in Motion.
