The BMW R 1200RT LC is the pinnacle of dynamic touring motorcycles, elevating the bar for comfort and performance. Its four-stroke, two-cylinder Boxer engine, with a DOHC configuration and 4 valves per cylinder, delivers a peak output of 92kW (125hp) at 7,750rpm and a maximum torque of 125Nm (92lb-ft) at 6,500rpm.
With its refined and smooth engine character, the R 1200RT is perfectly suited for long-distance touring. The introduction of a new balancer shaft ensures minimal vibration, while a longer secondary transmission ratio keeps the engine rpm lower, further enhancing riding comfort.
The R 1200RT also features two riding modes as standard, including Rain and Road, which allow for optimal adaptation to various road conditions. The optional Riding mode Pro, complete with Dynamic mode and Hill Start Control, takes the riding experience to the next level.
