In 2007, the German motorcycle manufacturer released the BMW R1200R, a standard motorcycle in its second production year. The 2007 model came with the same package as the previous one without significant modifications.

The BMW R1200R was a standard motorcycle that debuted in 2006 as a replacement for the BMW R1150R, continuing its production until 2018. The bike was eventually replaced by the BMW R1250R.

When the R1200R replaced the R1150R in 2006, it came with two significant differences. For any bike manufacturer, weight and power are very important, so the new model featured a 25 kg (55 lbs) weight reduction and 28 percent more power than its predecessor.

Aesthetically, the bike was characterized by standard features, such as a naked body, a round headlight upfront, a one-piece dual seat, a two-into-one exhaust system, and five double-spoke aluminum wheels.

As for the power figures, the 2007 BMW R1200R had its heartbeat set by a 1,170cc four-stroke twin-cylinder air/oil-cooled boxer engine mounted at its core, boasting 109 hp at 7,500 rpm and 115 Nm (85 lb-ft) torque at 6,000 rpm.

For suspension, the motorcycle featured a 41 mm BMW Motorrad Telelever suspension system on the front that provided 120 mm of travel and a single-sided aluminum swingarm with an adjustable BMW Motorrad Paralever system on the rear that offered 140 mm of travel.
