The price of the domestic super public upgrade retro model, Gaojin GK1200 "Crossing Edition", was officially announced on April 19, and the price of 53,800 yuan is quite powerful, and it is also the only public upgrade retro motorcycle in the price range of about 50,000 yuan. Although they are all GK1200 series, the positioning of the Crossing Edition is very different from that of the classic model, and the follow-up GK1200 series also has Bobber, Scrambler, ADV and even side three-wheeled models, so they cannot be confused.
From the appearance, it is not difficult to see that the GK1200 crossover version seems to be more sporty, with the same 18-inch front and 17-inch rear wire sub-slats, but replaced with Pirelli cyclocross tires with better off-road performance. At the same time, in order to improve comfort, the redesigned flat straight caterpillar seat cushion is thicker and softer, and the crossing version is available in a 780mm base version, with a standard seat height of 800mm. In addition, in the side panel of the body, the cross-over version has been narrowed, which further reduces the height requirements and covers more consumers of different heights. The classic full-length aluminum alloy double-sided single exhaust has been adjusted upwards at the angle of the tail section of the exhaust pipe, adding a touch of sportiness to the retro style.
It may be that it has received suggestions from market feedback, or it may be to enhance the retro beauty, GK1200 cross-over version adopts a more classic double-barrel mechanical pointer instrument, which is displayed separately for speed and speed, and displays key data with a small-size LCD screen, which is both practical and beautiful. And this set of instruments also has a chrome dial decoration and handlebar balance bar, which is indeed more retro.
As a retro model upgraded to another super public, the configuration of the Gaojin GK1200 Crossing Edition is not bad at all, with 41mm of upright retro-style shock absorption in the front and adjustable rear shock absorption with adjustable preload on both sides, all provided by KYB, providing a solid foundation for good handling. The 310mm front double disc and the rear 260mm single disc are paired with Nissin brake calipers and ASR traction control system to ensure safety performance. Double-sided spoked wheels and Pirelli all-terrain tires, with a large area of aluminum alloy engine underguard, and DID chains, can also be "wild" calmly.
The core power part, the 1222cc displacement inline twin water-cooled engine, the maximum power of 61kw/6550rpm, the maximum torque of 108Nm/3100rpm, 000 acceleration in 3.7 seconds, with electronic throttle, provides two different driving modes, and is also equipped with cruise control, which is convenient for long-distance riding.
In short, the positioning of the Gaojin GK1200 crossing version is more sporty, with better passability, and even a mild non-paved, more people-friendly seat height, which can also allow more consumers of different heights to feel the charm of public upgrading retro motorcycles.
