How about the Engine comparison for the R1200GS as compared to the K1200RS??
I am primarily a Road Warrior and only rarely go off road as when at a campground, etc. I also have the problem of being "Inseam Impaired" so that I am not able to ride the Off Road versions.
Thanks,

I love the engine in the K12. It is amazing. Very smooth. I haven't ridden the R12GS, but my friend who has one says it is equally smooth believe it or not. I trust his opinion since he also has a R1150R and has ridden both the K12RS and R1150GS. All BMW dealers offer test rides. Go in and see for yourself. :)

There are a lot of 'shorter' riders on the offroad bikes. There is a lot that can be done to lower the seat height. I am on the tall side (6'3) but that has its disadvantages also. I can't fit on most of the sportbikes out there. :(
