BMW Motorrad F900 R A2

Don’t be afraid – it just wants to have fun.

Behind the muscular gestures of the F 900 R stands pure riding enjoyment. Its precise edges emphasize the athleticism of the machine like tensed tendons. It appears focused, finely tuned. The front is aggressive. Headlights and cockpit sit compactly on the handlebars. Like the fists of a fighter: covered and ready to attack every split second. The tank is towards the front providing optimal mass distribution and a short tail. The compact underfloor silencer supports this crisp look.

The first step is the easiest – the A2 variant of the F 900 R.

The F 900 R is also available in an A2-compliant variant with 95hp, this can be reduced to 48hp to meet your A2 driver’s license requirements. You can enjoy the intuitive handling of the F 900 R from the very beginning.

More torque for your life.

Intuitive, spontaneous, and dynamic – you don't wait around for happy moments. You simply take them as your heart desires. The high-torque two cylinder in-line engine of the F 900 R delivers 4,500 to 8,500 rpm for 87 Nm. Just the right speed range to get the most fun out of the power.

Adaptive headlight.

The adaptive headlight of the F 900 R switches on automatically at a lean angle of 7°. 

Separate LED elements in the main headlight ensure the best possible illumination of the inside of the curve. For more comfort and safety in every curve.

Adapted – but only in terms of ergonomics.

The F 900 R has front-wheel ergonomics and a sporty design. Its six different seat heights, the adjustable hand lever, and the available high handlebars enable pretty much anyone to find their ideal position. The windshield is also available in a tall version, thus offering comfortable wind protection even on longer rides.

Everyone can find the F 900 R that best suits them. We believe this is what makes a dynamic roadster.

More riding enjoyment.

With the optional Pro ride modes, you can turn every curve and every straight for pure enjoyment even faster: They include safety-related assistance systems like ABS Pro, Dynamic Traction Control (DTC), Dynamic Brake Control (DBC), and Engine Braking Control (EBC). The DBC guarantees more safety when braking, and the new EBC prevents the rear wheel from sliding or stamping when spontaneously activating the gas or clutch. The Gear Shift Assist Pro or the electronically adjustable suspension combine sporty dynamism with comfort: for even more riding enjoyment.
