Individualisation
The R 12 is a cruiser that you can ride extremely casually. With its frame concept designed for customising, the R 12 is more than ready for your vision. But it doesn't have to be a complete makeover. Even small changes can give your bike its very own character. Take a look at our equipment suggestions and discover many other parts in the genuine BMW Motorrad accessories range for your unique #Soulfuel cruiser.
The Bobber
Black around the clock
The 1950s. An era in which bobbers and rock'n'roll conquered the world. The colour black underlines the coolness associated with this period in a particularly impressive way. You can give your R 12 this casual retro style with just a few accessories. These include, for example, the black custom rear end trim, the black Option 719 Shadow handlebar end mirrors and the black drag bar handlebars. This turns your bike into a genuine bobber and an absolute eye-catcher, no matter where it appears.
The comfort package makes many journeys more comfortable with heated grips and cruise control. In addition, the shift assistant Pro allows you to change gear without operating the clutch lever. Hill Start Control makes it easier to start off on inclines.
The design option exhaust system sets individual accents. The exhaust system is enhanced by a chrome-plated finish on the manifold and an electropolished rear silencer. This creates an unmistakable look.
Option 719 Classic wheel
On the move in style: the Option 719 Classic wheel is a tubeless spoked wheel in a timeless design. The high-quality, centrally spoked wheels with black anodised rim ring complete the classic Heritage look.
Option 719 handlebar end mirrors in Shadow black
The Shadow black Option 719 handlebar end mirrors offer exceptional visibility and emphasise the character of the bike.
Option 719 hand lever Shadow II black
The adjustable hand levers of the exclusive Option 719 Shadow are milled from a black anodised aluminium alloy. The grip width can be adjusted to five settings and adapted to individual requirements. The high-quality milled parts with Option 719 branding further refine the motorbike.
Option 719 footrest system in Shadow black
The rider footrest system of the exclusive Option 719 in Shadow black refines the look and function of the motorbike. The high-quality milled parts further emphasise the sporty appearance of the bike and the material quality.
Option 719 cylinder head cover in Shadow black
The Option 719 cylinder head covers in Shadow black impress with high-quality finishes and a customised look. In addition to the magnesium cylinder head covers, the set also includes surface-milled ignition coil covers made of black anodised aluminium with laser-engraved inscription and an anodised oil filler plug.
The black drag bar handlebars enable a sporty, low and more forward grip position. This results in a casual and sporty sitting position. It is also barely 11 cm wider than the standard handlebars.
The custom black rear end trim shortens the rear of the motorbike and impresses with a sporty, individual look thanks to the clearly exposed rear wheel. The number plate is mounted on a holder behind the rear wheel. The seat features stylish cross-stitching and grey contrast stitching.
The Classic Tourer
No stress for miles and miles
What could be nicer than cruising comfortably along a country road after a hard day's work and listening to the sound of the air-cooled boxer engine? With this equipment specification, the journey on your R 12 can gladly last a little longer. The Tour windscreen and the black comfort seat bench, as well as the new Digital Display, ensure increased touring comfort. The side bag of the Soulfuel Collection holds everything you need for a trip on your personal road to joy.
The comfort package makes many journeys more comfortable with heated grips and cruise control. In addition, the shift assistant Pro allows you to change gear without operating the clutch lever. Hill Start Control makes it easier to start off on inclines.
With ConnectedRide Control, the smartphone can be connected to the vehicle and display certain vehicle data, as well as the current weather and map navigation, in the ConnectedRide app. The smartphone is securely fastened in a holder in your field of vision. Operation is simple and intuitive via the multi-controller.
The unobtrusive Digital Display catapults the motorbike into the digital age. Thanks to the clear display, all information remains clearly in view – especially in the even more compact Pure Ride mode. In addition to the speed and revs, the daily distance travelled, average consumption or engine temperature can also be displayed.
With Headlight Pro, the headlights have an integrated adaptive headlight in addition to the LED light icon, which functions as a position light or daytime running light. The LED segments are switched on in addition to the low-beam headlight depending on the lean angle in order to optimise the illumination of the inside of the bend.
The tyre pressure control (TPM) provides information about the current tyre pressure and informs the rider of potential dangers early on in case of pressure loss. The values can be read on the display. A yellow status light and a red warning light automatically indicate a relevant deviation from the target values while the vehicle is in motion.
The Tour windscreen offers comfortable protection from wind and weather, making it the ideal choice for longer journeys. The cruiser look is perfectly matched to the vehicle design. The windscreen is crystal clear and has a scratch-resistant coating on both sides. The set also includes a windscreen holder and LED turn indicator stalks.
The black comfort seat offers a noticeable increase in sitting comfort for the rider and passenger thanks to additional upholstery. At the same time, it increases the rider's contact surface to the bike thus improving vehicle control. Thanks to its robust, waterproof surface material, the comfort seat is suitable for any tour.
The small, waterproof side bag from the Soulfuel Collection is made from recycled polyester and leather. The bag latches on to the side bag holder. An outer bag with a water-repellent zip offers space for personal items that need to be quickly to hand. The volume can be adjusted variably using a compression strap.
