BMW R 1200 GS Specifications
Engine and Transmission
Engine Type Refers to the design and configuration of the engine. Most petrol bikes typically use either a single-cylinder, twin-cylinder, or occasionally a multi-cylinder (like a four-cylinder) engine. | Air/liquid-cooled, twin-cylinder, 4-stroke, DOHC engine |
Displacement | 1170 cc |
Max Torque Represents the highest rotational force output by the engine, usually measured in Newton-meters (Nm) or pound-feet (lb-ft). It indicates the engine's pulling power. | 125 Nm @ 6500 rpm |
No. of Cylinders Indicates the total count of combustion cylinders in the engine. Common configurations include single-cylinder, twin-cylinder, and four-cylinder setups. | 2 |
Cooling System Describes the method used to dissipate heat from the engine. Petrol bikes often use air-cooling or liquid-cooling systems to maintain optimal operating temperatures. | Air and Liquid Cooled |
Valve Per Cylinder Refers to the number of intake and exhaust valves present in each cylinder. Most modern petrol bike engines have two or four valves per cylinder. | 4 |
Starting Describes how the engine is initiated. Most petrol bikes use electric starters, kick starters, or both, to commence engine operation. | Self Start Only |
Fuel Supply | Fuel Injection |
Clutch Enables the rider to disconnect the engine from the transmission temporarily, allowing for gear changes and neutral operation. | Oil Lubricated Clutch, Hydraulically Operated |
Gear Box Indicates the arrangement of gears that transmit power from the engine to the wheels, allowing the rider to adjust speed and torque. | 6 Speed |
Bore These measurements describe the diameter (bore) and length (stroke) of the cylinder in the engine. They directly affect an engine's performance characteristics. | 101 mm |
Stroke These measurements describe the diameter (bore) and length (stroke) of the cylinder in the engine. They directly affect an engine's performance characteristics. | 73 mm |
Compression Ratio Reflects the ratio of the maximum volume in the cylinder (when the piston is at the bottom) to the minimum volume (when the piston is at the top) during the engine cycle. Higher compression ratios generally lead to more efficient combustion. | 12.5:1 |
