Breathtaking design meets focused sports capability; the all-new Speed Twin 1200 RS is the Ultimate Modern Classic Performance Naked for riders who demand the ultimate in style and dynamic performance. Stunning and uncompromising, the all-new Speed Twin 1200 RS signals its sporting intent with its nose-down attitude, top-specification suspension components, beautifully finished in gold and a premium suede material for the seat. The raked fuel tank, with its deep front cutouts, is chiselled and muscular, while the minimal throttle body covers are finished in brushed aluminium and integrated seamlessly into sculpted side panels within the slim rear frame. Underneath, the lean, angular engine casings are powder coated black and framed by an uninterrupted exhaust run flowing into twin upswept ?megaphone? silencers. The all-new RS model takes the Speed Twin 1200?s unique blend of classic character and contemporary capability and adds top-specification chassis components and cutting-edge performance-enhancing technology to the more focused riding position to deliver a modern classic with even sharper responses.^^The top-specification Marzocchi 43 mm USD forks are fully adjustable, so they can be fully tailored to suit any riding style. At the rear, twin ?hlins piggy-back suspension units provide sublime damping and are also fully adjustable for the perfect set-up.^^Underlining the Speed Twin 1200 RS?s intentions to be the most capable and sports-focused bike in its class, a Brembo master cylinder is paired to top-of-the-line Stylema calipers, as well as a span and ratio-adjusted MCS lever, for unbeatable braking power and exquisite lever feel.^^New lightweight aluminium seven-spoke wheels add further to the agility, reducing inertia to speed-up direction changes and reacting instantly to rider inputs. Fitted with superb Metzeler Racetec RR K3 tyres, the outstanding handling performance can be fully exploited thanks to the outstanding feel and grip on offer.
