Engine suitable for Adventure touring

The BMW R1200GS Adventure bike has an excellent 1,170cc, two-cylinder boxer engine equipped with 4 valves per cylinder and is air or liquid cooled. The mechanical noise is reduced by water cooling which also improves the heat up time of the motorcycle as well as improving combustion stability which leads to less emissions from the exhaust. The R1200 GS Adventure motorcycle is a whopping 125hp and has radiators which are hidden inside of the side panels. The engine makes it easy for the BMW motorcycle to push through muddy ground because of the output shaft on the left side of the engine and has a wet clutch integrated 6-speed gearbox to allow the exhaust silencer to be moved to the right side of the bike. The BMW bike engine also has a top speed of about 200km/h (124.3miles) with an electronic intake pipe injection fuel system.

Great Enduro Pro and Dynamic Pro Ride Modes

The BMW R1200GS Adventure with somewhat similar ride modes as the base R1200GS, has “Enduro pro ” and “Dynamic pro” ride modes, which make it seem like you are controlling two different bikes.

Ideal for the experienced biker
