BMWR1200C 2002 - 2003

　　The BMW R1200C was a cruiser-styled bike manufactured by BMW in 1997, continuing production until 2004. It was made in over 40,200 units, including a smaller displacement model under the R850C designation, produced from 1997 to 2000.

　　Designed by David Robb, the head designer of BMW, the R1200C was BMW's attempt to join the cruiser market. One of the most notable features of the R1200C was the passenger seat, which was easily transformable into a rider backrest with three-way adjustable angles.

　　Besides the standard model, the German manufacturer introduced several versions with different features and designations, such as the Classic, Avangarde, Independent, Montauk, Troica, R1200CL, and R1200CLC.

　　In 2002, the German motorcycle manufacturer released the BMW R1200C, a cruiser motorcycle in its sixth consecutive production year. Since its last revision in 2000, the bike remained unchanged until 2004, when it received its final revision.

　　Aesthetically, the motorcycle packed standard fittings, like a round headlight upfront, a pulled-back handlebar, a two-piece dual seat with the passenger seat foldable into a rider backrest, a dual exhaust system with a silencer on each side, and wire-spoke wheels.

　　As for the power figures, the 2002 BMW R1200C had its heartbeat set by a 1,170cc four-stroke air/oil-cooled twin-cylinder boxer engine with 61 hp at 5,000 rpm and 98 Nm (72 lb-ft) torque at 3,000 rpm available underneath its fuel tank.
