Welcome
to We are the only totally dedicated BMW K1200S, K1200R, K1200R Sport, K1200GT and the new S1000RR and S675RR web site and discussion forum on the Web. Our growing global community is about 4,000 members strong with an open archive of over 55,000 informative posts. We are also the place for BMW's new S1000 and S675 machines. The new S1000 machines, at only 418lbs and 190hp, will compete directly with the Japanese liter class bikes, pound for pound. This game is getting very exciting indeed. We don't want to be the biggest BMW community, we strive to be the best. We are also available on BMW-K.COM, BMWS1000.COM and BMWK1200S.COM. K1200S, K1200R, K1200R-Sport & the '07 K1200GT not only incorporate a complete new design but usher in an evolved philosophy at BMW. A transverse inline 4, 1157CC, 167HP, 174MPH, 545 lbs wet weight (including ABS and ESA for the K1200S), Hossack inspired new Duolever front suspension, new maintenance-free shaft final drive and more. K1200GT was named 2006 and 2007 "Best Sport-Tourer" by Cycle World and K1200R was picked as the "Bike of the Year" by Motorcyclist. BMWSuperBikes.COM
Internet Community was launched on Friday, June 5, 2004. K1200S was
released in March and K1200R in June of 2005. The new K1200GT was
launched in May of 2006. K1200R-Sport was launched in March, 2007.
And the S1000RR was announced on April 16, 2008. My
reviews with images and videos of the following bikes are available
by selecting Ride Reports
from navigation on the left: K1200S, K1200R, K1200GT, K1200R-Sport,
R1200GS-Adv, F800S and R1200S. "...the
main reason I bought the K1200S is because I read virtually every
post on this website before I signed on the dotted line. Shiva - I
reckon you need to claim some comission - I'm sure I'm not the first
to buy due to this fantastic site and I certainly won't be the last.
I
would not wished to have done this (4-day) trip on my Honda Blackbird,
yet I would head off up the motorway system again tomorrow morning
on the K1200S." "...this
is by far the best forum I have seen or participated in, very informative
and friendly without all the flaming and competitive posturing that
usually occur with these typically testosterone driven hobbies. I
look forward to not only getting a K, but being a part of this community
and getting to know some of the members." "...Just
a quick note to say THANKS to SHIVA and Members of BMW-K.COM. Have
been reading posts on this site for over a year... and the information
has been extremely helpful in my selection of a new, black, K1200S,
that I'll pickup this Saturday. Without the information and counsel
on this site, I might not have chosen the K12S. Just wanted to say
thanks, and I look forward to increased participation as 'K - riding'
member." "...am
a Big fan of the Forum! Actually, this forum was one of the factors
that put me "over the edge" towards my new purchase! ...wanted
to say thanks..." "Recently
I came across your website (BMW-K.com) and have found it to be very
interesting and informative. Because of the information received and
the excellent quality pics I will be purchasing a K1200R over the
next couple of months. For that I thank you." "Thanks
for the welcome Shiva. I must congratulate you on your writings and
the forum - it's one of the best I've come across. I've been reading
and following this site for a few weeks now and finally decided to
register." "I
have only been a member for 4 or 5 months but thoroughly enjoy this
forum. I have posted more (and learned more) on this forum than any
other forum I have been on in the last 5 years. Keep on posting people!" "Well
done people. This site is so global yet it feels like home. Here's
to many more years. Thanks 'S.'" |
