Some call the bikes retro, vintage or classics. We call them Heritage. A glance at the iconic design and the unmistakable boxer engine shows that it’s about design, handling, minimalist design. It’s a way of life. And if you want to go even further: our Heritage models are the ideal basis for customizing.
Legends live longer. The R 12 models bring an unmistakable look to the road with their minimalist design language and unique roadster style. They are powered by a next stage of evolution of the Boxer engine. Otherwise, hardly a screw was left in its thread during development. The backbone designed for customizing with a classic tubular spaceframe has been completely redeveloped. Can you hear the call? Express your inimitability.
The R 18 models combine high-end equipment with unmistakeable design and comfortable ergonomics. Its motto: Celebrating Big Boxer Culture. Boasting 1,802 cc, it has the most powerful boxer engine ever built by BMW Motorrad at its core. It gives you a unique riding experience and brings pure emotion to the streets.
