Years2004–2008
The sole K 1200 S generation uses the 1157cc four-cylinder, Duolever and shaft drive. ESA, ABS and luggage are equipment; an RS or LT sharing the K1200 badge is not an S and deliberately remains outside this generation.
1,157 cc · 167 hp · 4 cyl.
The BMW K 1200 S is the fast inline-four sports tourer in the K range. It combines a transverse 1157cc inline-four with shaft drive, Duolever front suspension and Paralever rear suspension. With around 123 kW and 130 Nm it is not a lightweight superbike, but a heavy, very rapid long-distance machine with full fairing and optional ESA and ABS equipment.
The K 1200 S ran from 2004 through 2008; a K 1200 RS or LT is a different, older motorcycle family and must not receive these technical data. On a used S, full service history, shaft-drive and clutch behaviour, and the condition of Duolever and any ESA matter more than luggage or exhaust accessories. It suits experienced riders seeking both performance and motorway comfort.
Check the shaft and final drive for oil traces, play and noise on overrun or at speed; a short test ride alone is not enough.
Listen for prolonged cold-start rattle and ask for invoices covering cam-chain-tensioner and clutch work.
Test Duolever steering behaviour and any ESA in every setting; play, leaks or faults can require expensive specialist work.
Check ABS and any brake-assist system, including warning lamps after moving off; have faults read before purchase.
Inspect coolant hoses, radiator and electrical connections for age, leaks and tidy repairs, especially on accessory-equipped bikes.
