BMW R 1200GS LC Triple Black Special Edition (2016)
The BMW R 1200 GS LC Triple Black Special Edition is a masterclass in motorcycle design, blending rugged functionality with sleek, sinister style. Its powerful horizontally opposed Boxer engine churns out a thrilling 92 horsepower, matched to a smooth-shifting six-speed transmission for effortless long-distance travel. The Telelever front suspension and Paralever rear end provide exceptional handling and control, while the Integral ABS system ensures confident braking.
The bike’s dark, aggressive aesthetic is a key part of its appeal, with a predominantly black finish that’s accented by subtle touches of Agate Grey. The cross-spoke wheels, familiar from the R 1200 GS Adventure, add a touch of rugged sophistication, while the new black-grey seat with “GS” application on the passenger seat completes the bike’s bold, masculine look.
As a result, the BMW R 1200 GS LC Triple Black Special Edition is the ultimate long-distance tourer for riders who crave adventure and style in equal measure.
