UPDATE: BMW announced U.S. pricing for the R1200RT starts at $17,650, plus various options including the premium package at $20,850.

The R1200RT has gone liquid cooled, inheriting the new boxer engine with BMW’s “precision cooling” technology from the new R1200GS. But that’s not all that’s changed on the RT as Editor-in-Chief Kevin Duke points out in the video below from the 2013 EICMA show floor.

With a new K1600GT-inspired look, more power and a number of factory-installed options, one of our favorite touring bikes is better than ever.
