BMW Motorrad UK has announced the launch of the eagerly anticipated BMW K1200 GT and R1200 GS Adventure models in the UK.
While many had said producing a replacement for the popular R 1150 GS Adventure would be a task too far, the two new models have been critically acclaimed.
Sporting many new and improved features, such as a significant increase in power and torque and an improved off-road capability, BMW have high hopes for the 1200cc R1200 GS Adventure.
Meanwhile the 152 hp K 1200 GT is to showcase alongside its Adventure companion. BMW's new Gran Turismo engine has already been used in the 167 hp K1200 S superbike and 163 hp K1200 R naked roadster, but in the K 1200 GT it is to power a genuine touring machine.
The K1200 GT boasts many new features, such as 17 per cent more power, 11 per cent more torque and a longer range with the addition of a larger fuel tank. It also has adjustable handlebars and a new brake pad wear indicator system.
The launch is to take place at BMW dealer showrooms across the country on March 25th – 26th, where customers will have the chance to win a new R1200 GS Adventure motorcycle for free.
