LET'S ride on the wild side
"An off-road motorcycle with style
The Spirit of the Original
Like its spiritual predecessor, the R 80 G/S from 1980, the R 12 G/S stands for unbridled motorcycle adventures. The shapes and colors emphasize the character of this free spirit.
The G/S legend lives on
The R 12 G/S pays tribute to the beginnings of the G/S legend – nostalgia and modernity in perfect symbiosis. The exposed, aesthetically staged boxer engine, the high chassis, and the color scheme of the original are immediately striking. Its retro look will have you yearning for the deserts and off-road trails. Its simple style references the insignia of the R 80 G/S and makes the bike both a timeless classic and a unique statement.
