BMW launches the R 12 S as a tribute to the iconic R 90 S

BMW Motorrad has expanded its Heritage range with the all-new R 12 S.

The new motorcycle serves as a fitting tribute to the iconic R 90 S, which was released in 1973 with 68bhp and a top speed of 200km/h. Having won a host of accolades in its history, the R 90 S is one of the particularly sought-after BMW motorcycles.

For even more safety during night rides, the adaptive cornering light Headlight Pro ensures better illumination of the road in corners

Standard features on the R 12 S include Option 719 Classic II wheels with wire spokes and shiny aluminium rims, and the Comfort Package. The Billet pack Shadow II includes the footrest system, hand brake and clutch levers, expansion tank covers for the front brake and clutch, as well as the handlebar end mirrors.

Based on the R 12 nineT, the R 12 S can also use the former's accessory products such as titanium exhaust systems, soft bags, and navigation preparation. Additional factory-installed options are also available, such as Tire Pressure Control and Anti-Theft Alarm System.
