To celebrate the 15th year of the 4-valve GS model, BMW Motorrad has launched a striking Special Edition version of the R 1200 GS, the country’s favourite all-round motorcycle.
R 1200 GS SE features at a glance
• Striking Alpine White paint work
• Black cross spoke wheels
• Tinted screen
• Low, bi-colour seat
• Protective aluminium cylinder head covers
• Complementary panniers and fittings (until 30 September)
• Factory fitted Premium and Dynamic specification packages
This limited edition model comes in Alpine white, with a low bi-colour seat and a distinctive black front ‘beak’. To stand out from the ever-popular standard model the SE version is supplied with black cross spoke wheels, protective aluminium head covers, and a tinted screen as standard.
As well as a striking look, the high standard specification of the R 1200 GS SE offers buyers great value for money. Not only does the SE take advantage of the free pannier promotion, on offer to purchasers of GS and GS Adventure models until 30 September, but also comes complete with both Dynamic and Premium specification packages saving customers £1250 over the standard model with these additions.
The factory fitted Dynamic package offers customers piece of mind with the best safety options available from BMW Motorrad. These are ABS, Automatic Stability Control (ASC) and Tyre Pressure Control.
For added rider comfort and fun, the Premium package offers BMW’s highly acclaimed and industry leading Enduro Electronic Suspension Adjustment (ESA2). The unique Enduro ESA is easy to use enabling the rider to adjust the suspension of the bike to suit load or terrain, by simply pressing a button on the handlebar controls. Also available in the Premium pack are heated handle bar grips, an on-board computer, chrome exhaust pipe and LED indicators.
The R 1200 GS SE is built to order at a cost of just £11,250 OTR. BMW Motorrad dealers are taking orders for now with the first bikes being delivered to customers in July 09.
