Did the new R1200Rs go on BMW's web site?

it's there..you have to look hard though. Honestly the BMW motorcycle site leaves so much to be desired. They still have the 2009 color schemes on there! And the accessories open into a PDF that harkens back to 2004! Thank the heavens they build their bikes better than their site!

The international site has the single cam, the Canadian site has the new twin cam. At least on my iPad.
Plea bargaining does have its advantages.

I've seen a lot of changes in the BMW site over the years. Sadly, none of them for the better. I'll have a look at the Canadian site. Thanks, y'all.

I called the BMW NA motorcycle division a few weeks ago asking the same questions, however at that time the 2011 R was at least on their website but with very little info and no pricing and options, the young lady who answered the phone was clueless about what she was talking about. After realizing she couldn't help with my questions she put me on hold and tried to get some answers from her superiors. Interestingly when she picked up the phone again she didn't even try to help me any further she just said: " check with your local dealer" the routine bah blah BS.

So far here is the best info I found regarding the bike including pricing and options: http://www.bmwmotorcycle.com/2012_r1200r_bmw_info.htm

Cheers!
