The R 12 is the cruiser sibling of the R 12 nineT, sharing its 1170 cc air/oil-cooled boxer and one-piece frame but tuned for low-rev pull at 95 hp. It sits low with a 754 mm seat, a steel teardrop tank, wider bars, forward controls and a 19-inch front / 16-inch rear wheel pairing, with shorter 90 mm suspension travel. Keyless Ride, riding modes, traction control and ABS Pro are standard, with options such as Shift Assistant Pro and a digital display.
