Rider Profile

Best ForThis bike suits an intermediate to experienced rider who wants strong, torquey performance without a razor-edged track focus.
PurposeIt's built for confident, fast sport-touring, eating up long highway miles and twisty roads with equal ease.
Rider FitThe 820mm seat height and 204kg wet weight make it manageable for most riders of average height and fitness, though the mass is noticeable at low speeds.
CharacterThe boxer engine gives it a distinctive low center of gravity feel, smooth shaft-driven power delivery, and a planted, confidence-inspiring ride.
Not Ideal ForIt's not the right choice for anyone seeking a lightweight track weapon or a capable off-road adventure machine.

Rider Fit Visualizer

Calculated in your browser only - your height/inseam are never sent to our servers.

Feet:

At 826mm, a rider of 68.9" with a 31" (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with balls of both feet on the 2007 BMW R 1200 ST, with a cramped knee angle of around 70 degrees and a forward-leaning riding position.

Data quality: measured. Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.
