Bmw R 1200 St
The Bmw R 1200 St has a top speed of 210 km/h, produces 98 hp and weighs 229 kg. Motoryk rates it 7.8/10.
A BMW R 1200 ST (Sport Tourer) foi introduzida em 2005 como sucessora da R 1100 S, combinando dirigibilidade esportiva com conforto de turismo usando a plataforma bimotora Boxer. Foi produzido até 2008, oferecendo um meio termo entre o RT tourer completo e os modelos S mais agressivos. Embora nunca tenha sido vendido em grandes volumes, foi elogiado por seu caráter versátil e pelo refinado motor Boxer de 1170 cc refrigerado a óleo, herdado da linha GS.

O que os compradores devem saber
Boxer Engine Reliability
The air/oil-cooled 1170cc Boxer twin is known for exceptional long-term durability, with many examples surpassing 100,000 miles when properly maintained. Regular valve clearance checks every 6,000 miles are essential to keep it running smoothly.
Watch for Final Drive
The shaft final drive can develop spline wear if lubrication is neglected — always inspect and grease the rear wheel splines during purchase inspection. This is a known weak point across the R1200 lineup when service intervals are skipped.
Steady Resale Value
The R 1200 ST holds its value better than many sport-tourers due to BMW's strong brand reputation and limited production numbers. A well-documented service history can significantly boost resale price in the used market.

"O esportista esquecido da BMW merece mais respeito do que recebeu."
O ST fica em um meio termo estranho que a BMW nunca vendeu ao público, mas morar com um revela uma máquina genuinamente capaz. Aquele boxer refrigerado a ar/óleo puxa com força a partir de 3.000 rpm com um rosnado mecânico satisfatório, e a meia carenagem mantém o vento da estrada longe de seu peito sem transformá-lo em uma vela. Com 249 kg molhados, ele sente cada grama em manobras lentas no estacionamento, mas uma vez rodando, o peso desaparece e o chassi recompensa as entradas em curvas comprometidas com confiança real. A maior queixa do mundo real é a queda de calor no trânsito — sua perna direita fica bem cozida pelo escapamento nos dias de verão, o que não é uma peculiaridade, é uma falha.

Avaliação do comprador usado
"A seriously capable sport-tourer that rewards patient, mechanically sympathetic buyers."
$5,500-$9,000 usedThe R 1200 ST is BMW's forgotten sport-tourer, and honestly that works in your favour when buying used. It sits between the RT and the S 1000 XR in concept but predates both, and the air-cooled boxer twin gives it a character neither of those bikes can match. Power delivery is smooth and tractable, the shaft drive means zero maintenance headaches, and that wide-set handlebar makes it genuinely comfortable on 300-mile days without feeling like you're riding a sofa. That said, go in with eyes open. The Telelever front end feels alien to anyone used to conventional forks — you'll either love the feedback or spend months second-guessing it. Boxer heads stick out and take knocks in parking lots, so inspect them carefully. ESA suspension adjusters seize on neglected examples, and the integrated luggage system, while clever, is expensive to replace if damaged. Service history is non-negotiable on these — skipped valve checks become expensive fast.
