2011 BMW R1200R and Classic
BMW have updated the R1200R with more power, and a “Classic” wire wheel version. 
BMW R1200R and R1200R Classic Updated
BMW have updated the R1200R for 2011 and added a Classic edition with wire wheels.
Using the 1170cc engine as found in the R1200GS and RT the R1200R now boasts 110 horsepower. The R1200R model has alloy wheels, while Classic adds spoke wheels, along with different paint and some chrome.
Both bikes retain similar specs, with the same powerplants, and suspension. Telelever up front is revised and improved, with the strong BMW flavour carried through to the rear in the Paralever suspension.
The basic version of the R 1200 R is available in one of three colour schemes: matt metallic smoky grey, metallic light grey, or metallic red.
The Classic version only comes metallic sapphire black with a white centre stripe on the tank and front guard. Other Classic features are a chrome vs Black muffler and mirrors.
