They may even take the bike out for a few thousand relaxing kilometres, savouring pure pleasure every inch of the way. This is the “Gran Tourismo” experience provided by BMW Motorrad - the world of the new K 1200 GT!

The unique chassis with Duolever and ESA (optional) along with excellent brakes ensure that the bike’s performance capacity is always well under control.

The safety fittings leave nothing to be desired: ABS and electronic brake pad change indicator as standard, and such features as automatic cruise control, on-board computer with oil level display or xenon light as optional extras.
