100 YEARS OF “MAKE LIFE A RIDE” YOUR STORY MAKES OURS

BMW Motorrad history is mainly about people sharing a passion: adventurers, dreamers, inventors, athletes, visionaries – those aiming to revolutionize the streets with great ideas on two wheels. 100 years of the “Make Life a Ride” spirit. In this spirit, we take the time to simultaneously look at our past and our future: at events and highlights in the anniversary year 2023. And lots of ideas are still to come. Join us to celebrate this monumental year.

R 18 FAMILY HIGHLIGHTS AT A GLANCE

It delivers a maximum torque of 116 lbs-ft at 3,000 rpm. At 4,750 rpm, the Big Boxer delivers 91 hp combining its core tradition with modern technology for pure emotion on the road.
