                  Styling BMW
                  With identical styling to its BMW R1200GS predecessor and its chassis left untouched, not a lot seems to have changed with the R1250GS at first glance.

                  Best in this segment. Power delivery is phenomenally exceptional and you can feel the torque on the ground as you rev at higher RPM. Love this bike.
