BMW Motorrad has unveiled a new black colorway for the R 12 G/S at the Capital Moto Week event in Brazil. The model carries on the traditional air/oil-cooled boxer engine and the DNA of the classic GS.
The R 12 G/S just got a new black colorway. The boxer twin's shape stays the same, but it's amazing how much the color alone changes its whole expression. Picturing a bike that translates classic GS grammar into the modern era standing out at a venue in Brazil gets me pretty excited.

Is the difference between the R12 and R12 GS basically just the suspension and off-road capability?
Suspension travel and wheel size differ—the GS leans more off-road.
Looks rugged, but this kind of classic-styled bike seems like it'd be easy over long distances.
Was this announcement at Capital Moto Week for a Brazil-exclusive color?
The wording makes it sound like a limited release tied to the local event, so maybe we just wait and see how it rolls out.
Black suits the Classic GS way too well, it's almost unfair.
A new black colorway—honestly kind of feels like 'here we go again.'
The fact that the air/oil-cooled boxer is still going strong is what makes the R12 series great.
