The BMW K1200GT was a sport-touring motorcycle that debuted in 2003 and continued production until 2006 under the first generation. In 2006, the second generation of the K1200GT was released, packing the same engine as the BMW K1200S sportbike.

In 2006, the German motorcycle manufacturer launched the BMW K1200GT, a sport touring machine in its second generation. The second-generation models were lighter and more powerful than those produced from 2003 to 2006.

Also, the 2006 BMW K1200GT was slightly changed in the aesthetic department, packing redesigned fairings, an electronic immobilizer, an adjustable handlebar, an adjustable seat, a two-piece dual seat, an adjustable windscreen, side-mounted panniers, a single-sided swingarm, and lightweight aluminum wheels.

Underneath its full fairing, the 2006 BMW K1200GT packed a 1,157cc four-stroke four-cylinder liquid-cooled engine fed by an electronically-controlled fuel injection system, boasting 152 hp at 9,500 rpm and 130 Nm (96 lb-ft) torque at 7,750 rpm.

The bike's power was handled by a six-speed manual transmission with a hydraulically operated wet multi-disc clutch and a final shaft drive, spinning the rear wheel to a top speed of 249 kph (155 mph).

The motorcycle was built on a lightweight aluminum frame with a Duolever suspension system and two 320 mm discs coupled to four-piston calipers on the front wheel. The rear end was handled by a Paralever suspension system and a 294 mm disc with a dual-piston caliper.
