Boxer soul and dirt shoes — BMW Motorrad builds the perfect successor to the R 80 G/S

- 

Retro motorcycles don’t always have to be slow or just an eye-candy, and the new BMW R 12 G/S is a big punch in the face of whoever believes so. The whitecoats at Bavaria turned the suave R 12 nine T into perhaps what is the most desirable neo-retro motorcycle in the world right now. And you won’t be wrong in believing that this one seems like the spiritual successor to the iconic R 80 G/S.
