The BMW R1200ST was the short-lived successor to the R1100RS/R1150RS. Considered by some to be one of the best sport-touring bikes ever made, this bike was an absolute commercial failure in the US. I’d pin that on two factors: first, this bike overlapped too much with the RT and the GS. Second (and more importantly)…it’s hideous. Just 554 were sold in the United States between 2005-2007, most of which were in this silver/blue color scheme.
If you’re looking for a capable sport-tourer, it’d be easier to do worse than this – as long as you can get over the looks. Take solace, though, as the bizarre looking headlight was one of the best OEM lights you’ll ever find in terms of output. And I guess the good news is that from behind the bars, it looks just fine?
This example (VIN: WB10338075ZM30427) has 33,000 miles and it’s claimed to be in good shape – unfortunately the seller is getting out of motorcycle for health reasons. It has Givi hard bags and the sale will come with some gear. Find this R1200ST for sale in Hilbert, Wisconsin with bididng up to $2,000 and the reserve not yet met or a BIN of $5,200
