BMW R1200C AVANTGARDE

Based on R1100R but totally restyled and fitted with large capacity lower power engine. Can anything be more elegant than elegance itself?? Can unsurpassed aesthetics be outperformed? The new Avantgarde suggests that such a step forward is possible – and in a very convincing way too. A special kind of surface finish has been adopted in order to create a brand-new identity for this, the BMW among the cruisers: the “graphite” surface coating. Many striking details that shine forth in brilliant chrome on the classic R 850 C / R 1200C cruisers gleam subtly and elegantly in matt “graphite” on the Avantgarde. Parts finished in this way include the Telever, the instrument panel support, the turn indicators, the hand controls, the front and rear frames, the rear support section and the rear light. The engine and transmission housings and the Monolever swinging fork are finished in stylish black as a stimulating contrast to the deep metallic glow of the “graphitan” parts. The R850 C / R 1200 C Avantgarde models are available in a choice of colours that express their distinction just perfectly. There is an elegant contrast between the deep brilliance of Peach metallic or cool Frost blue metallic and the black seat upholstery. This special combination of top-class surface finishes, unusual colours and exclusive materials gives the Avantgarde Cruisers a completely new look.
