BMW's heritage means they know how to build bikes with genuine soul and the RNineT delivers that classic boxer character wrapped in modern reliability, proving you can have both style and substance.
The BMW RNineT proves that sometimes looking backwards is the best way forward, combining classic café racer styling with that addictive boxer engine character that makes every ride feel special. After extensive testing through Sydney's roads and beyond, this retro-styled machine delivers genuine heritage appeal without the vintage bike headaches.
That 1170cc air-cooled boxer produces around 110 horsepower with bags of mid-range torque, delivered through a smooth 6-speed transmission. The riding position strikes the perfect balance between sporty and comfortable, while the spoked wheels and twin clocks nail that classic aesthetic. Modern touches include ABS, traction control, and LED lighting without compromising the vintage vibe.
Starting around $20,000, it's positioned against rivals like the Triumph Thruxton and Moto Guzzi V7, but the BMW's build quality and that distinctive boxer character set it apart.
For riders seeking character over clinical perfection, the RNineT delivers authentic BMW heritage in a beautifully crafted package.
