2022 BMW R 18 Classic Manhattan Metallic Matte
ICONIC. NOSTALGIC. SOULFUEL
The R 18 Classic is a modern cruiser with a nostalgic sense of BMW design. It reminds one of the first BMW cruisers suitable for touring. It also invokes timeless marks of our motorcycle history, such as with the white double pinstripe found on the R 18 Classic First Edition. The heart of the machine is obviously the boxer engine with the most displacement we have ever built. It is designed for relaxing tours and pure enjoyment.
A cruiser inspired by icons
Streamlined silhouette, high-quality details: The R 18 Classic attracts all eyes to it.
THE HIGHLIGHTS AT A GLANCE
The drop-shaped tank and elongated exhaust are icons from our history and emphasize the traditional BMW design of the R 18 Classic. Its double cradle steel frame envelopes the enormous sculptured boxer engine that turns every mile into an experience.
Features may include:
Seat with passenger seat
The seat bench consists of two individual seats.
Boxer with pushrods
Built with conviction, for over 95 years: The R stands for boxer.
LED additional lights
Typical nostalgic touring bike: two auxiliary lights.
Footboards
These provide a relaxed and comfortable ride, as the overall appearance of the bike already suggests.
Windshield
The large windshield protects the rider from the wind and weather.
Round exhaust pipe, open driveshaft, double cradle frame
Historic influence, newly interpreted for today.
Black tank with double pinstripe and classic BMW logo
The black tank with double striping is one of the icons of BMW Motorrad history.
Saddlebags
The soft bags have 4.1 gallons of space for things you might need on a trip.
Make the bike your own
The R 18 Classic’s extensive range of accessories give you all the freedom to design your own bike.
