• BMW Motorrad getting more naked
• Mild power boost for F800R
• Three possible riding modes
BMW Motorrad South Africa, having taken notice of the growing popularity of naked bikes locally and world-wide, has launched two roadsters - the R1200R is an update of a model we already have in the country, the F800R is new to the local market.
During the launch Alex Baraka, general manager of BMW Motorrad South Africa, said the roadster market was a small but growing segment. Roadsters make up only six percent of BMW’s current sales in South Africa; the hope is that these two new models will help sales growth.
