Tribute to a legend

The R 12 S brings legendary genetics to the streets in a modern and stylish way. It combines the shapes and colours of the ultimate racing bike from the 1970s, the R 90 S, with modern technology, comfort, and driving dynamics, as well as extensive standard equipment. Based on the R 12 nineT, it gives you a unique riding experience with an unmistakable boxer punch – pure #Soulfuel. Let’s paint the town orange.

Features may include:

  • Sporty, dynamic, stylish: Single seater

The cool and sporty character of the R 12 S is emphasised by the single-seater rear with paintwork in Lava orange metallic and red double linework on brushed aluminium.

  • Your throne: the seat

On the black seat with orange contrast stitching, you can conquer the streets in comfort.

  • Aerodynamic eye-catcher: the front

All eyes on the captivating design: The front trim panel in a bright colour extends forwards dynamically.

With adaptive headlights, the Headlight Pro ensures optimal visibility in any lean angle. Thanks to the comfort package, you can enjoy safety and comfort on the road.

  • Modern retro: the dual round instrument

Precise measurements with the stylish dual round instrument.
