As far as fun is concerned, the wicked look and slim shape of the CBF1000F at least already suggest that it won't fall by the wayside. A motorbike that can do so much that it may seem too ordinary to many. But a motorbike will never be that. That's what it boils down to: spurned at the pub, bought at the dealer.

It was predictable that the new R 1200 RT would perform even better with the new partially water-cooled boxer engine. Although 125 hp and 125 Newton metres of torque have quite a bit to haul with the 274 kilos ready to ride, the RT retains its unbelievable effervescence from below. This makes it extremely agile, especially on corner exit after a hairpin bend. In combination with the gearshift assistant Pro (which is, of course, available at extra cost), the gears just flow and you involuntarily move more sportily than you might have intended. The big bonus points of the R 1200 RT are its good workmanship, the simple and easy-to-follow operating principle and, last but not least, its small turning circle.
