The new BMW R 18 Roctane

The new R 18 Roctane joins the R 18, R 18 Classic, R 18 B and R 18 Transcontinental as the fifth member of the R 18 family. Once again, it looks back on the history and tradition of BMW Motorrad and combines the State-of-the-art motorcycle technology with the design and charm of days gone by.

purist without frills and the boxer engine as the epicenter of driving pleasure. Classic design and clear yet contemporary technology merge to form a fascinating overall concept. This combination provides a unique emotional driving experience and the model is characterized by a cleverly stepped design language with a rear section in a so-called “streamlining design”.

The most powerful BMW boxer engine of all time delivers punchy torque in matt black metallic finish and features high-gloss black covers, as well as dark chrome exhaust system and star locknuts.
