The 2014 R 1200 R will surely be the last with the air-cooled flat-twin. The new fleet boxer quickly invades the R range and only the roadster welcomes it again this year.
Quietly but devilishly efficient, the R 1200 R is still present in the BMW range, defending more classic values than the brutes of another caliber such as the K 1300 R and other lumberjacks.. It benefits from double ACT cylinder heads from the HP2 Sport. The GS and RT have moved on.
The flat twin has gained 500 rpm of engine speed, an ounce of power and torque, but it’s especially in character that you should feel the difference. Pieces of sports in the bag, it still marks its ground. Behème took the opportunity to review his bourgeois roadster by little touches. A new, slightly ovoid headlight gives it slightly more character while the new dashboard (central digital window surrounded by two dials) suits it better than the old instrumentation piqued at the 1200 GS. A new more arched saddle should improve passenger comfort; which will be able to hold on much better with the new and generous rear handles. A little touch of class: the Paralever single-sided arm, the cylinder heads, the Telelever suspension arm and the lower sleeves are painted in bronze. Also note the new, more stylish oil cooler protection grille and the rims borrowed from the K series. These are little things…. But it contributes to the quality impression.
