A good fat bourgeois who loves sport. Here is a slightly simplistic way but very well defining the K 1200 RS. The machine, of very classy appearance, cultivates valorization, presence … and corpulence. The design skilfully combines sportiness and elegance, especially at the level of the particularly fine rear end.. The front is more massive, beefier, heavier, and houses generous attributes. A large 4-cylinder engine bursting with torque and pleasure, which does not vibrate and knows how to develop its power with nobility. Superbly powerful, it unfortunately only has 98 hp in France (instead of 130 in full) to tow nearly 300 kgs.
However, we can count on his generous breath and his ability to take the beast at a good pace. The chassis is largely in tune with performance, with its aluminum frame and particularly efficient Telelever and Paralever suspensions. Because if the motorcycle is a queen for riding far and fast, taking it at a sporty pace requires grip. the machine is heavy, physical to swing in the sequences. The positioning of the K 1200 RS may seem relatively ambiguous – too heavy for a sportswoman, limited autonomy and too sporty driving position for a traveler – but its handling qualities, its high level of finish and its big muscle make it a top motorcycle. rank. Travel enthusiasts can also count on its sister K 1200 GT since 2003 – the same but with suitcases, more protection and more comfort..
