The BMW R1200GS, alongside the R1200GS Adventure (also known as the R1200GSA), was a motorcycle made by BMW Motorrad in Berlin, Germany, from 2004 to 2012. The BMW R1200GS Adventure was manufactured from 2005 until 2013.
The standard motorcycle debuted in 2004 and ended production in 2012 when it was replaced by the R1200 GS (LC), while the adventure version was made in 2005 and was replaced by the R1200GS Adventure (LC) in 2014.
In 2010, the German motorcycle maker released the BMW R1200GS, a motorcycle in its eighth consecutive production year that featured several modifications.
The 2010 model received a revised cylinder head with a double overhead camshaft (DOHC), an increased redline limit to 8,500 rpm, an increased power output to 110 hp, and an exhaust flap for a different sound.
In the aesthetic department, the motorcycle was fitted with standard features, such as a half fairing, a windscreen, hand guards, a two-piece dual seat with passenger grab rails, a luggage rack, a two-into-one exhaust system, and five-spoke aluminum wheels.
For suspension, the bike packed a 41 mm adjustable Telelever system on the front with 190 mm of travel and a single-sided swingarm with an adjustable Paralever system on the rear that offered 200 mm of travel.
As for power, the 2010 BMW R1200GS took its muscles from a 1,170cc four-stroke twin-cylinder air/oil-cooled fuel-injected boxer engine that delivered 105 hp a 7,500 rpm and 115 Nm (85 lb-ft) torque at 5,750 rpm.
