Vehicle Information
BMW R1200GS Motorcycle - Street (2004-2019)
The BMW R1200GS, an iconic adventure-touring motorcycle, was produced from 2004 to 2019, evolving through three distinct generations. Initially, the 2004-2009 models featured the oil-cooled "Hexhead" engine, delivering around 100-105 hp. The Adventure (GSA) trim was introduced in 2005 for the 2006 model year, offering enhanced off-road and touring capabilities. From 2010 to 2012, BMW introduced the DOHC oil-cooled "Camhead" engine, boosting power to 110 hp with improved performance. The most significant redesign came in 2013 with the liquid-cooled "Water Boxer" or "LC" engine, which powered models until 2019. This generation, featuring partial liquid cooling and advanced electronics, produced 125 hp. The liquid-cooled GSA followed in 2014. Throughout its production, the R1200GS maintained its reputation for versatility and reliability. Q: How do I ensure I select the correct parts for my R1200GS?
A: The BMW R1200GS underwent several changes between 2004 and 2019. Please use our year and edition selector to find parts specifically compatible with your motorcycle's generation and trim.
