Take a ride on the wild side
"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 colour scheme of the original are immediately striking. Its martial retro look will have you yearning for the deserts and off-road trails. Its purist style references the insignia of the R 80 G/S and makes the bike a timeless classic and a unique style statement, even today.
