== Overview == | |||
Motorcycling has always been a | |||
passionate lifestyle. For the past 90 years BMW Motorrad has been ensuring | |||
that this remains the same in the future, too. For those who like it pure | |||
and original, BMW Motorrad has now developed the perfect machine: the BMW R | |||
nineT. A motorcycle featuring purist design and numerous ways of customizing | |||
it. | |||
BMW R nineT: Pure Authenticity. | |||
Riding a motorcycle and feeling free. The BMW R nineT combines this feeling | |||
with a casually cool look which, in spite of all the details, is unmistakably a | |||
member of the BMW family. Further criteria such as ride feel, design and sound | |||
lay the foundation for an independent, authentic lifestyle. | |||
BMW R nineT: Pure Customizing | |||
The BMW R nineT is powered by an air/oil-cooled 2-cylinder 4-stroke flat twin | |||
engine. The instruments consisting of speedometer and tachometer harken back to | |||
historical times and emphasize the essential and minimalist visual appeal of the | |||
motorcycle. The BMW R nineT is equipped with an upside down fork at the front | |||
and with the BMW Motorrad Paralever at the rear. However, the nineT does not | |||
only stand out due to its pure design. The nineT offers great options for | |||
individualization. No customizing wish is left unfilled. For example there is | |||
the removable rear frame, enough space for 6 inch rims and many other options. | |||
Even though the BMW R nineT offers so many modification opportunities it remains | |||
a real BMW motorcycle from a technical point of view. Standard-fitted ABS | |||
ensures highest-degree safety for the nineT, too. | |||
BMW R nineT. Pure Lifestyle. | |||
Pure passion, pure design, pure riding pleasure. This is what makes the BMW R | |||
nineT so essential for the classic enthusiast. Modify, ride, have fun. The nineT | |||
leaves nothing to be desired with regard to customization. Design your | |||
motorcycle, design your life. One name, one purist lifestyle: | |||
BMW R nineT. | |||
Created to mark 90 Years of BMW Motorrad | |||
The 2014 BMW R nineT radiates both purity and power. It skillfully blends the | |||
boxer engines iconic character and classic design traits of bygone motorcycle | |||
eras with cutting-edge technology and a modular concept that offers a wide range | |||
of customization opportunities. | |||
The classic roadster bike is built for motorcycle enthusiasts who yearn for | |||
unadulterated, stress-free riding pleasure. When designing the nineT, terms such | |||
as purist simplicity, emotion and authentic, traditional materials were | |||
high on the list of priorities. Styling cues from old-school motorcycle | |||
production are united with the very latest drive and chassis components on the | |||
nineT to produce a sensational motorcycle that is just as adept at cruising | |||
serenely as it is powering down country roads. | |||
Powered by a classic boxer engine. | |||
Like BMWs first-ever motorcycle the legendary 1923 BMW R 32 the new BMW | |||
R nineT is powered by a classic flat twin boxer engine which delivers quick | |||
acceleration from a standstill. This construction principle has been synonymous | |||
with unmistakable design, abundant torque delivery and inimitable acoustics for | |||
90 years. The nineT employs the 1,170 cc air/oil-cooled boxer unit which | |||
produces 81 kW (110 hp) at 7,550 rpm and produces a maximum torque of 119 Nm (88 | |||
lb-ft) at 6,000 rpm. | |||
Conceived for maximum customization. | |||
The nineT pools together genes from 90 years of BMW Motorrad in a unique | |||
concept designed to appeal to customization fans. During each stage of the | |||
roadsters development, focus was placed on enabling riders to tailor it to | |||
their personal preferences in a variety of ways. The choice of modifications | |||
ranges from BMW Motorrad genuine accessories to custom-made add-on or accessory | |||
parts from specialist customizers. | |||
The ability to customize the nineT is largely due to its special frame | |||
concept. The tubular steel spaceframe that was specially developed for the nineT | |||
incorporates the boxer engine as a load-bearing element. The frames basic | |||
construction consists of a front frame section with integral steering head and a | |||
rear section with swingarm mounting. | |||
The removable pillion frame allows the nineT to offer a stylish design | |||
whether riding two up or solo. With the aluminum tail cover available as a | |||
special accessory, the nineT has a look that is reminiscent of early café | |||
racers. | |||
Exhaust positioned on left with twin silencers (mufflers) and customization | |||
options. | |||
The exhaust system that runs down the left-hand side with two silencers | |||
(mufflers) placed one above the other is fully in keeping with the concept of a | |||
classic sporty roadster. There is room for customization here too, courtesy of | |||
the BMW Motorrad accessory range. Adding a real touch of technical finesse to | |||
the nineT, for instance, is the Akrapovic unit made of titanium. By installing a | |||
short or long connecting pipe, the silencer can be mounted in either a lowered | |||
or a raised position, radically altering the appearance and character of the | |||
nineT. | |||
Traditional chassis design combined with high-performance technology. | |||
The telelever usually equipped on the boxer models from BMW Motorrad has been | |||
replaced on the BMW R nineT by an upside-down telescopic fork borrowed from the | |||
S 1000 RR superbike, resulting in a distinctly classic look paired with top-tier | |||
engineering. The rear suspension employs the paralever single-sided swingarm in | |||
conjunction with a central spring strut. | |||
The housing for the rear axle drive includes three mounting points that can | |||
be used to attach a bracket for positioning the license plate and brake/tail | |||
light unit on one side. Whats more, the swingarm on the nineT is designed in | |||
such a way that a 17-inch wheel with a width of 6 inches can be substituted for | |||
the standard 5.5-inch-wide version, if permitted. | |||
Designed as an out-and-out roadster, the nineT follows in the tire tracks of | |||
role models from the past by featuring wire-spoke wheels with black anodized | |||
alloy, non-flanged rims, black aluminum hubs and stainless steel spokes. Radial | |||
4-piston monoblock brake callipers work in unison with floating 320 millimeter | |||
(12.6 inch) brake discs and BMW Motorrad ABS to provide definitive stopping | |||
power. | |||
Pared-down design and hand-built character. | |||
One of the overriding design objectives was to reduce the bodywork as much as | |||
possible to achieve a purist look. The attention to detail that consistently | |||
infused the work of the designers and engineers on the nineT is evident | |||
throughout. | |||
The sides of the 18-liter (4.8 gallon) aluminum tank have been painstakingly | |||
brushed by hand and then coated. The aluminum plate with embossed nineT | |||
lettering on the right above the air intake duct is another example of the | |||
bikes hand-built character. | |||
The surfaces of many forged aluminum parts, including the yokes and the | |||
handlebar clamp bracket with BMW Motorrad lettering, have been glass | |||
bead-blasted and then given a natural anodized finish. The circular headlamp | |||
with the BMW emblem in the center of the bulb cover pays homage to previous role | |||
models from 90 years of BMW Motorrad. | |||
A classic Black Storm Metallic paint finish with contrasting silver and | |||
metallic highlights was chosen to complement the character of the nineT. | |||
Specially designed electrical system to allow plenty of scope for | |||
customization. | |||
The bikes electrical system has been specially configured for greater | |||
technical flexibility, facilitating the installation of alternative electrical | |||
components, such as headlights or turn indicators. | |||
Technology. | |||
BMW R nineT classic roadster with a powerful, customizable character. | |||
To mark the companys 90th anniversary, BMW Motorrad is presenting the BMW R | |||
nineT as a commemorative model for enthusiasts and customers alike. The nineT | |||
embodies the brand values of 90 years of BMW Motorrad and neatly sums up the | |||
companys illustrious past with a unique concept, pure riding pleasure, a | |||
classic pure design, and a deliberate focus on the technical essentials. This is | |||
a classic roadster model exuding style and expressiveness -- the perfect choice | |||
for anyone looking for a pure, unadulterated bike with thrilling on-road | |||
performance. | |||
But theres more to the BMW R nineT than being a BMW motorcycle with an | |||
unprecedented design. Besides its technical functionality, the BMW Motorrad | |||
development team also paid close attention to the emotional bond between man and | |||
machine all in keeping with the principle that, apart from working flawlessly | |||
on a technical level, a motorcycle must also stimulate all of its riders | |||
senses, trigger strong emotions and provide non-stop thrills, whether its | |||
pulling up in front of a café or riding along country roads. | |||
To this effect, the nineT employs definitive styling cues from past | |||
motorcycle eras and yet this is no retro bike. Rather, it synthesizes | |||
state-of-the-art technical features from high-performance sports machines with | |||
classic principles derived from 90 years of BMW Motorrad, and applies them with | |||
compelling handcraftsmanship. | |||
Ideally suited for customization. | |||
Customization allows motorcycles to be tailored to the owners personal | |||
preferences. Possible enhancements range from the usual, original accessories to | |||
limited individual components or even one-off designs. | |||
With the nineT, BMW Motorrad is appealing to the desire of many motorcycle | |||
enthusiasts who wish to be creative with their bike and modify it to suit their | |||
individual taste and intended use. | |||
As a result, not only does the new BMW R nineT boast a particularly | |||
sophisticated overall concept that lends itself to being individually modified, | |||
it also includes some far-reaching technical provisions for undertaking further | |||
customization work beyond choosing from the extensive range of special equipment | |||
from BMW Motorrad. | |||
As such, the nineT and its unique design concept revolutionize the | |||
interaction between rider and machine. For the first time, customers can become | |||
actively involved in designing their BMW, a process which entails far more than | |||
simply adding optional extras or special accessories, as is usually the case. | |||
Taking the existing central components of engine and chassis as a basis, the | |||
nineT rider has a wealth of options for individually customizing it as they | |||
please. | |||
Spirited BMW Motorrad boxer engine with short secondary transmission ratio | |||
for dynamic riding pleasure. | |||
For 90 years, the longitudinal twin-cylinder boxer engine and power | |||
transmission by means of a cardan shaft drive have been synonymous with BMW | |||
motorcycles. Consequently, there could be no other choice when it came to | |||
selecting the drive configuration for this project, which was, after all, | |||
initiated to commemorate 90 Years of BMW Motorrad. | |||
Ever since the first BMW motorcycle the R 32 made its debut in 1923, BMW | |||
Motorrad boxer engines have been renowned for unmistakable, rugged design, | |||
abundant torque delivery and an unrivalled sound. The BMW R nineT features the | |||
air/oil-cooled 1,170 cc boxer engine with a bore of 101 millimeters and a stroke | |||
of 73 millimeters that is already familiar on numerous BMW Motorrad models. | |||
Output peaks at 81 kW (110 hp) at 7,550 rpm, while maximum torque of 119 Nm (88 | |||
lb-ft) is generated at 6,000 rpm and the rev ceiling is set at 8,500 rpm. | |||
The valves are installed in a radial arrangement in the combustion chamber | |||
and their timing is controlled by means of chain-driven double overhead | |||
camshafts (DOHC) for each cylinder. The valves are actuated by cam followers of | |||
a very lightweight design, making them ideal for higher rpm, while lightweight | |||
hemispherical shims are used for valve clearance compensation. | |||
Power is transmitted to the rear wheel via the proven six-speed gearbox and | |||
the cardan shaft drive. In keeping with the dynamic character of the nineT, the | |||
secondary transmission ratio of the pinion and ring gear has been lowered for | |||
optimum accelerating power and the smoothest possible gear shifts. | |||
Twin-pipe exhaust on left-hand side for inimitable boxer sound. | |||
The exhaust system that runs down the left-hand side, with two silencers | |||
(mufflers) in blasted stainless steel positioned one above the other, fits | |||
perfectly with the notion of a classically designed, sporty roadster. Indeed, it | |||
is a design that has been used in similar form in the past, for example on sport | |||
and racing bikes in the 60s and 70s. The BMW R nineT also features an acoustic | |||
valve operated by an electric servomotor and opening and closing cables to | |||
deliver the deep resonant boxer sound that riders favor while remaining within | |||
legal sound limits. | |||
The BMW Motorrad accessory range for the nineT offers customers various | |||
options for the exhaust system that allow the nineT to be adapted to personal | |||
tastes. Installing the Akrapovic silencer/muffler in titanium with carbon heat | |||
shields, for instance, adds a special touch of technical finesse. There is also | |||
the option of lowering or raising the exhaust system by installing a short or | |||
long connecting pipe to the front silencer/muffler, opening up even greater | |||
possibilities for the bikes styling and giving it more of a café racer or | |||
scrambler feel. | |||
Modular frame concept for a host of possible variations. | |||
The nineT features a specially designed frame concept that also permits | |||
customization. The previous frame design has been replaced by a completely, | |||
newly developed tubular steel spaceframe on the BMW R nineT, with a modular | |||
construction consisting of four components: a front main frame, a rear main | |||
frame, a frame end-piece as well as a pillion frame, which are all bolted to one | |||
another. | |||
With its removable frame end-piece and pillion frame, the BMW R nineT offers | |||
customers plenty of possibilities for varying the visual appearance and | |||
character of the sporty roadster model to suit their preferences. | |||
This is a bike built for keen performance, so the geometry of the nineT | |||
chassis has been configured first and foremost for superb handling and riding | |||
pleasure on winding country roads. The wheelbase measures 58.1 inches, the trail | |||
4.04 inches and the Steering Head Angle 64.5 degrees. | |||
From a roadster for two to a sporty racer for one. | |||
The BMW R nineT leaves the factory in the form of a classic, sporty roadster | |||
that can carry two people. Despite the low riders seat height (approx. 30.9 | |||
inches) and narrow straddle width, both rider and pillion passenger can be | |||
seated comfortably. The optional comfort rear seat provides both a larger seat | |||
area and extra cushioning for the passenger. | |||
If sporty solo riding is on the agenda, the pillion frame can be removed by | |||
undoing its eight bolts. An aluminum tail cover can also be installed to | |||
complete the classic café racer look. | |||
The custom riders seat with its slender, low-slung design combines with the | |||
classy nineT lettering to reveal the bikes character as an uncompromising | |||
riding machine that has been pared down to the absolute essentials. | |||
Classic wheel suspension featuring upside-down telescopic fork at the front | |||
and paralever at the rear. | |||
The telelever front suspension usually installed on the boxer models from BMW | |||
Motorrad has been replaced on the BMW R nineT by a premium upside-down | |||
telescopic fork borrowed from the S 1000 RR superbike, producing an even more | |||
harmonious classic look and enabling more extensive chassis modifications to be | |||
carried out far more easily. Spring travel is 120 millimeters (4.7 inches). | |||
Wheel location at the rear is by the proven paralever single-sided swingarm | |||
used on the remaining air/oil-cooled generation of boxer models. The task of | |||
wheel suspension and damping is performed by a central spring strut with a | |||
spring painted in white. The spring preload can be adjusted hydraulically with | |||
ease using a hand wheel made from forged aluminum, while the rebound damping is | |||
infinitely adjustable. Spring travel is likewise 120 millimeters (4.7 inches). | |||
The housing for the rear axle drive incorporates an innovative feature for | |||
further customizing the nineT. The housing, as on the other boxer models, | |||
includes three mounting points that can be used, for example, to attach a | |||
bracket for positioning the license plate on one side together with the light | |||
unit. The nineT also has so much room between the silencers (mufflers) and | |||
swingarm that the standard 5.5-inch-wide 17-inch wheel can be replaced with a | |||
6-inch-wide version. Such modifications, however, are dependent upon state and | |||
federal regulations. | |||
Traditional wire-spoke wheels and high-performance brakes. | |||
In traditional roadster fashion, the new BMW R nineT rides on high-quality | |||
wire-spoke wheels comprising black anodized alloy non-flanged rims, cast | |||
aluminum hubs, stainless steel spokes as well as tubed tires, size 120/70 ZR 17 | |||
at the front and 180/55 ZR 17 at the rear. | |||
The 17-inch wheels and the tire sizes represent the state of the art for | |||
sporty motorcycles designed for performance riding, while the stainless steel | |||
wire spokes and the black hubs and rims evoke the trademark styling cues and | |||
flair of bygone eras from 90 years of BMW Motorrad. | |||
This creates a stark contrast to the sophisticated high-performance twin-disc | |||
brake that is more than a match for the dynamic performance abilities of the | |||
nineT. Featuring radial 4-piston monoblock brake callipers, steel-braided brake | |||
lines and floating 320 mm (12.6 inch) brake discs, it ensures superior, | |||
fade-resistant stopping power even on the sportiest of rides. Braking power at | |||
the rear is provided by a 265 mm (10.4 inch) single-disc brake with twin-piston | |||
floating caliper. The nineT already comes equipped as standard with BMW | |||
Motorrad ABS, as do all BMW motorcycles. | |||
Specially designed electrical system boosts scope for customization. | |||
The electronics have undergone a thorough overhaul to allow more extensive | |||
modification of the nineTs technology. For example, the parameters and | |||
interfaces in the bikes electrical system have been configured to enable | |||
alternative electrical components, such as headlights or indicators, to be | |||
installed as required. | |||
Separating the engine and vehicle wiring harnesses keeps the amount of work | |||
involved to a manageable level even when carrying out major modifications to the | |||
motorcycle. This is an important consideration for professional customizers. | |||
Note Modifications to the BMW R nineT may void your BMW Limited Warranty. | |||
Any technical modifications should comply with all applicable federal, state and | |||
local laws. | |||
Design, workmanship and color scheme. | |||
Pared down styling and hand-built character. | |||
Whether with high- or low-mounted exhaust system, sporty aluminum tail cover | |||
or double seat the nineT has many different appearances, but they are all | |||
equally compelling. | |||
In silhouette, the BMW R nineT is the epitome of casual elegance. The boxer | |||
engine, compact fuel tank and lean tail-end styling are just some of the | |||
features that help to give this bike its classic BMW Motorrad roadster | |||
proportions. | |||
One of the designers main goals was to give the body a pared-down, | |||
back-to-basics look. This focus on only the most basic design elements of the | |||
motorcycle allows the nineT to express stylish individuality using just a small | |||
number of additional crafted components. From every angle, the appearance of the | |||
nineT is defined by a mix of classic and modern motorcycle styling themes, | |||
combined with high-quality surface finishes. | |||
The front. | |||
The nineTs classic round headlamp the central focus of the front | |||
silhouette projects a sense of maturity and poise. A powerful high-tech | |||
contrast is provided by the gold-anodized outer tubes in the upside-down forks, | |||
while the classic shape of the boxer engine helps to create lean overall lines. | |||
The instrument cluster, comprising two classic round speedometer and | |||
tachometer gauges, is smoothly and harmoniously integrated into the overall | |||
front-end design. The simple styling of these gauges reflects the classic | |||
inspiration behind the nineTs engineering, but at the same time incorporates | |||
the convenience and amenities of modern technology. For example, the nineT comes | |||
equipped with an onboard computer that shows key information such as time of | |||
day, engaged gear, remaining range, trip mileage, servicing interval and average | |||
speed and fuel consumption very clearly in a large, segmented display. | |||
The tank. | |||
The 4.8-gallon aluminum tank and the aluminum plate with embossed nineT | |||
lettering over the air intake on the right-hand side are eye-catching elements. | |||
The nineTs high standards of manufacturing quality are reflected in the | |||
meticulously hand-brushed and coated tank sides which accentuate the grain of | |||
the aluminum to full effect. The knee area can be further customized with | |||
optional classic-style rubber kneepads. Like the brushed aluminum tank surfaces, | |||
the air intake cover is naturally anodized and its finely brushed, high-tech | |||
surface neatly round out the styling in this area. The separate comfort rear | |||
seat cover is also made of aluminum, with a similar surface finish. | |||
Key Features | |||
Purist design. | |||
Hand-built feel to the workmanship. | |||

standards of quality. | |||
Features and Benefits | |||
Attention to detail. | |||
Many details draw attention to the nineTs high-quality, hand-built | |||
character. For example, the yokes with their tapered bolt bosses and the tapered | |||
steering damper mount are superior forged aluminum parts with glass-bead-blasted | |||
and naturally anodized finish. Also made of aluminum, the clamp bracket for the | |||
tapered aluminum handlebars has embossed BMW Motorrad lettering, while the | |||
riveted model plate on the steering head reminiscent of classic BMW motorcycle | |||
designs is further evidence of the meticulous attention to detail that has | |||
gone into the development of the nineT. | |||
References to historic forerunners from 90 years of BMW Motorrad | |||
manufacturing can be seen in the wire-spoked wheels with black rims and the | |||
headlamp with its sheet steel housing and BMW emblem centrally positioned on the | |||
bulb cover. An unusual feature is the vertical mounting of the headlamp by means | |||
of a meticulously finished aluminum bracket connected to the lower yoke. The | |||
nineT also boasts white turn signal lenses and an LED rear light. | |||
The front fender is bolted by two forged brackets to the fork bases and is | |||
one of many details that exemplifies the nineTs allegiance to classic | |||
motorcycle styling themes. Again, a glass-bead-blasted and naturally anodized | |||
finish demonstrates the high-quality workmanship of the nineT. Forged parts, | |||
such as the aluminum seat mount or the adjustment knob for the shock absorber, | |||
are likewise glass bead-blasted and naturally anodized. | |||
The narrowed seat, too, boasts a high-quality, hand-built feel. It is trimmed | |||
with high-quality leather-effect material and edged with a contrasting white, | |||
hand-sewn double lap seam. On the left rear edge of the riders seat is a small | |||
fabric label with a blue nineT logo. | |||
Classic yet modern color scheme. | |||
The new BMW R nineT is available in only one color scheme. Matching the | |||
character of the bike, this is based on classic black (Black Storm Metallic), | |||
with silver and metallic contrasts. | |||
The classic, pared down elegance of the nineT is supported by black anodized | |||
components such as the frame and engine block. These contrasts and a high-tech | |||
look and feel are provided by the gold-anodized fork tubes and numerous aluminum | |||
surfaces with various grains. In the drivetrain area, the paralever swingarm and | |||
magnesium valve covers are accentuated in Granite Grey Metallic Matt. | |||
The main body of the two-tone fuel tank of the nineT is finished in Black | |||
Storm Metallic, while its sides are meticulously brushed and coated in aluminum. | |||
