New BMW K1200SR

Post by DJ Downunder »

Nice...I think it's due out in October...it looks half S and half R...or a K1200R with a K1200S headlight and front half fairing.

Not heard of that!


I HAVE heard of a K1200R-Sport coming soon - most likely to be PowerCup rep - but that representation could also be a possibility.

While down at the island on the weekend I got to talk to the head of BMW Australia.

He had a grin from ear to ear and said "just wait and see what we have coming out soon."

He hinted that it was a 'real' sports bike..but wouldn't say more..so typical.

He said that there's a new color version or the blue and white striped K1200S..and more curvy stripes.

I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

This has to be a joke. No one has heard anything about this. I admit, I like the look though.

There is something at BMW going on for sure...there's this guy in the know at our BMW club..the other day at our meeting I asked him about a new BMW K1200SR..half S and half R....and he said "No..that's wrong"...I thought Bugger!...and he said "No...the name is wrong"...with a big smile.
