In 2014, the German motorcycle maker released the BMW R1200GS, a motorcycle made by BMW in 2004. The 2014 model came with several technical modifications that enhanced its overall capabilities.
Some improvements included adjustments in the handling department and adding features, such as LED headlights, keyless ignition, a quick-shifter, an anti-theft system, and a lower seat option. In addition, the bike had an ABS mode available as a software update that allowed safer braking.
In the aesthetic department, the motorcycle packed standard fittings, such as a front cowl with an extended beak, a windscreen, a two-piece dual seat with passenger grab handles, a luggage rack, a two-into-one exhaust system, and ten-spoke alloy wheels.
The motorcycle's riding experience was softened by a 37 mm BMW Motorrad Telelever system on the front with 190 mm of travel and a single-sided aluminum swingarm coupled to a BMW Motorrad Paralever system on the rear with 220 mm of travel.
As for the braking power, the motorcycle's wheels were fitted with two 305 mm brake discs with four-piston calipers on the front and a single 265 mm brake disc with a dual-piston caliper on the rear.
As for power, the 2014 BMW R1200GS was set in motion by a 1,170cc four-stroke air/liquid-cooled twin-cylinder boxer engine that delivered an output power of 125 hp at 7,750 rpm and 125 Nm (92 lb-ft) torque at 6,500 rpm.
