The BMW R1200ST was a sport-touring motorcycle manufactured by BMW in 2005 to replace the BMW R1150RS. It was made until 2007, when it was replaced by the BMW R1200RS.
The R1200ST packed the same 1,170cc twin-cylinder boxer engine, transmission, and shaft drive as the BMW R1200RT. Although the ST had similar specifications as the RT model, it was more sports-oriented, with a clip-on handlebar and a lighter fairing.
In 2006, the German motorcycle manufacturer launched the BMW R1200ST, a sport-touring machine with a well-balanced combination of sports attitude and performance, capable of cross-country hauls.
The bike's appearance was characterized by standard features, such as a full fairing with a large hexagon-shaped vertical headlight, a small windscreen, a two-piece dual seat with a passenger grab handle, a single-sided swingarm, and aluminum alloy wheels.
As for power, the 2006 BMW R1200ST had its soul brought to life by a 1,170cc four-stroke air/oil-cooled twin-cylinder boxer engine that delivered an output power of 110 hp with a peak force at 7,500 rpm and 115 Nm (85 lb-ft) torque at 6,000 rpm.
The power generated by the engine was transmitted to a six-speed manual transmission controlled by a dry single-plate clutch and sent to the rear end via a shaft drive, pushing the motorcycle to a top speed of 234 kph (145 mph).
