We covered on the rumours and leaks of the  BMW R18 just last week! With this official announcement coming in we didn’t expect the production R18 to hit the streets this fast.

The Official Announcement

BMW Motorrad announced that, on Friday, 3rd April 2020, the new BMW R 18 will celebrate its long-awaited world premiere.  They will officially present the announced production bike featuring the Big Boxer for the cruiser segment.

“All of us at BMW Motorrad are very much looking forward to the absolute highlight of the year for us – the world premiere of the BMW R 18,” says Dr. Markus Schramm, Head of BMW Motorrad as quoted from the official announcement.

“BMW Motorrad achieved record sales for the ninth year in succession in 2019. With the R 18 and the associated entry into the cruiser segment, we are consistently pursuing our growth strategy with the clear goal of becoming the number one in the premium segment worldwide”.

The live countdown to the world premiere of the BMW R 18 has now officially begun. Immediately after the unveiling of the R18, initial information including photos, videos and specs would be officially out. So be sure to follow up with us to get the latest coverage on the upcoming R18!

What to expect!

As of now, according to rumours and the leaks, the production BMW R18 would be rolling out with the biggest  1,802 cc, flat-twin boxer as the concept.  This air-cooled engine would produce a peak power of 91 bhp at 4,750 rpm and a peak torque of 158 Nm at 3,000 rpm. The bike would feature a 6-speed gearbox with a possible reverse gear powered by the starter motor. Also, the bike is expected to roll out with adaptive cruise control assisted by a radar sensor.  On top of this, we can expect to see hardcore electronics and other gizmos as it very common among cruisers.
