No, it doesn't use an SV engine. It's not a V-configuration.

Yes, it's greater then 250cc. Waaay greater.

It's also not fully-faired.

Nope. Had to look that one up, though...

It's part of the Ducati family--uses a Duc motor at least. Nope.
Has a V-configuration engine. Nope.
It's Italian. Nope.
Dual-sided swingarm. Nope.
Can't find ANY pictures of a yellow one. Nope.
And while I'm not sure of production numbers, it probably falls into the "extremely rare" category. Nope.

Guess again!

You're thinking way to exotic and out there. This isn't a bike you'd look twice at if someone were out dragging cylinder heads at a Ridesmart day.

Yes.

No. Close, though. Just a bit less exotic.

Not really a sportbike, and I don't think it came in yellow, either. Still oh-so-very close, though...

R1200GS!

Or R1200RT if the "not a sportbike" wasn't a clue.

No, and No.

The "not really a sportbike" was in response to fixxer's "1200R" guess. I assumed he meant the R1200R, which is more of a standard then a sportbike.

You guys have covered most of the R1200 line, still haven't found the one I'm looking for, though. Like I said earlier, it's the one with an exhaust that reminds me of the Duc 999's...

Remember, it is a sportbike, not a sport-tourer, adv, standard, or anything else. Sportbike.

Ah, I should have known this, I actually looked at one at Eurosport.

Ding ding ding!

Well, close enough. I was looking for just plain R1200S. Definitely a lustworthy bike.

Whew, that was tougher then I thought it would have been!

Not going to have time to keep up with this, so somebody else pick a bike.

No and No. The engine was made by Rolls-Royce with the current bike putting out 420 HP and about 500-ft/lbs of torque . But the regular model only has 320 HP and 425-ft/lbs of torque.
