Years
2014 - 2018
The K52 generation uses BMW's partially liquid-cooled 1,170 cc boxer with 125 hp, riding modes and a noticeably stronger mid-range. It is the final R 1200 RT: the 1,254 cc ShiftCam engine belongs only to the later R 1250 RT and is intentionally excluded here.
Years
2010 - 2013
The facelift uses an air/oil-cooled DOHC boxer with double overhead camshafts per cylinder and a broader mid-range. Displacement and peak power stayed the same, but the engine is more refined; ESA and extensive touring equipment are common options.
Years
2005 - 2009
The first R 1200 RT (K26) combines the 1,170 cc air/oil-cooled boxer with Telelever, shaft drive and a fully faired touring body. This 110 hp generation is identified by its pre-DOHC engine and early partially integrated ABS system.
The BMW R 1200 RT was BMW's twin-cylinder tourer from 2005 to 2018, powered by the air-cooled (later partially liquid-cooled) 1,170 cc boxer making 110-125 hp through a shaft drive and Telelever/Paralever chassis. Standard equipment includes a full fairing with electric screen, pannier mounts, ESA suspension, ABS Pro, ASC and a central infotainment display. The 2014 LC update added a wet-head DOHC engine with more torque and ride modes.
The RT targets touring riders who want a complete two-up package without the heft of the K 1600 six. Wet weight is around 274 kg with an adjustable 805-820 mm seat, keeping it relatively manageable for a full-fairing tourer; the low boxer cylinders give it nimble steering for its mass. Rivals are the Honda NT1100, Yamaha FJR1300 and the Triumph Trophy. On the Dutch used market plenty of ex-police RTs are offered; pay extra attention to service history and high mileages.
