About the BMW R1200RT
Released in 2005, the design
of this model was completely different from the BMW R1150RT which is replaced
The servo powered ABS brakes on the 2005 and 2006 models were semi integrated so the rear brake pedal only applies the rear brake while the front brake lever applies both brakes. in 2007 model year, servo assist was removed from the partially integrated brakes and new, more advanced and lighter ABS system was produced by Continental Teves.
A tire pressure monitor (TPM) was introduced as
an option. In 2006 models the original two-tone horns
were replaced by a single-tone horn.
Optional extras included cruise control, heated grips, heated seats for both the rider and passenger, and a CD/Radio audio system.
With 110 hp,
the R1200RT is suitable for long-distance carrying of a rider and
passenger and a full load of luggage; and is able to reach 135 mph and do a standing quarter mile in 12.2 seconds.
