Wed Sep 28, 2022 11:11 am

please could someone give me the width of the engine and the width of the upper bike with the mirrors folded in (r1200rs).

I have an narrow uneven entrance and I am not sure if the bike will fit through.

Thank You for help

Distance across the handlebars is 795 mm.
Width across my engine cylinders is approx 760 mm (hard to measure exactly) - NB that's a 1250RS rather than a 1200RS although I don't think there's a difference? Certainly not significant - probably within my measurement error, anyway.
Note also the front indicators - they also measure approx 760 mm, and that's certainly the same for the 1200/1250 engines (as is the handlebar measurement).

Thank you so much for taking the trouble to measure that for me, the width looks less than my current tdm 900 so shouldnt be an issue.

The width shown online is 925mm so that was worrying me.

Thanks again.
