Bmw R 1200 Rt

The Bmw R 1200 Rt has a top speed of 200 km/h, produces 125 hp and weighs 279 kg. Motoryk rates it 8.5/10.

A BMW R 1200 RT foi lançada em 2005 como sucessora da R 1150 RT, com o icônico bimotor boxer refrigerado a ar/óleo da BMW e projetada como uma motocicleta esportiva de turismo premium. Uma grande atualização ocorreu em 2014 com um novo motor boxer refrigerado a água (apesar de manter elementos de estilo refrigerados a ar), eletrônica aprimorada e auxiliares aprimorados ao piloto, incluindo ESA dinâmico e ABS nas curvas. Ela se tornou uma das motocicletas de turismo mais vendidas na Europa, conhecida por seu conforto de longa distância, estabilidade e pacote de tecnologia avançada.

O que os compradores devem saber

⚙️

Watch the Camshaft Chain

Pre-2013 models with the air-cooled boxer engine are known for camshaft chain tensioner wear, which can lead to costly repairs if ignored. Always check service history and listen for rattling on cold starts.

💰

Strong Resale Value

The R 1200 RT holds its value exceptionally well compared to competitors, often retaining 60-70% of its value after three years. Low mileage, well-maintained examples command premium prices in the used market.

🛡️

Integrated ESA Suspension

Models equipped with Electronic Suspension Adjustment (ESA) allow riders to tune damping on the fly for solo or two-up riding, a rare feature in its class. However, ESA components can be expensive to repair if they fail.

8.7/10

"O gêmeo de turismo de referência que conquistou sua reputação honestamente."

Eu percorri 40.000 km em um RT de 2007 ao longo de três anos, incluindo dois passeios alpinos e uma corrida pelos Balcãs, e essa bicicleta mudou genuinamente a forma como eu penso sobre viagens de longa distância. O boxer twin puxa com força a partir de 2.500 rpm, esse valor de torque não é um número — é uma sensação física quando você acelera em um ziguezague de montanha com bagagem a bordo. A proteção contra o vento da tela eletricamente ajustável é genuinamente líder de classe, embora o mecanismo da tela tenha começado a ranger no segundo ano e a carenagem reduza o calor que retém nas canelas durante o trânsito. Os 279 kg são reais e você os sente no momento em que o empurra da lateral em um estacionamento apertado, mas uma vez rodando, ele carrega seu peso melhor do que quase qualquer outra coisa no segmento de turismo.

Experienced touring riders covering serious annual mileage

"The definitive used sport-tourer if you can afford the upkeep."

$9,000-$18,000 used

The R1200RT is genuinely one of the best long-distance bikes ever built, and buying one used makes enormous sense — BMW built these things to last, and a well-maintained example with 60,000 miles on it will still feel tighter than a neglected one at 20k. The water-cooled boxer (2014 onwards) is the sweet spot — more power, better fuel economy, and those heated grips and ESA suspension aren't just gadgets, they're genuinely transformative on a 400-mile day. Previous owners tend to be older, careful riders who serviced them properly, so the used market is actually pretty decent. That said, do your homework. Check the final drive for play, inspect the shaft for leaks, and budget for valve checks — they're not cheap but absolutely necessary. The infotainment system on earlier water-cooled models feels dated now, and the bike's sheer size catches people off guard until they get the weight moving. Get one with panniers already fitted; buying them separately will hurt.
