The BMW R 12 nine T
Enter the R 12 nineT. With this sensational roadster, you set the scene with aplomb. Character: extrovert. Design: expressive. One after the other, hardly a screw was left in its place during development. With the revolutionised frame concept, this bike is eminently customisation-ready. So feel free to go the extra mile – do your own thing. The R 12 nineT invites you to make your own personal statement on the road. Celebrate #Soulfuel in your very own way.
The road belongs to you
Master of style
Wherever it goes, the R 12 nineT immediately takes centre stage. The golden upside-down fork, numerous aluminium parts, the two round instruments – every detail makes for an unforgettable presentation.
Doesn't follow trends. Sets them.
The R 12 nineT does not follow role models. It is a style icon in its own right. Instantly recognisable from afar thanks to its authentic look with an unmistakable roadster "flyline". Up close, you recognise iconic details such as the round instruments, the chrome-plated manifold, the aluminium tank and the expressive, tubeless bicolour wheels. Hop on and make the road your stage. Your ride is accompanied by the unmistakable sound from the twin tailpipe exhaust system.
Staying true to itself, yet never standing still: this bike shows what successful evolution can look like.
