R nineT Scrambler

BMW Motorrad R NineT Scrambler

Break away and accelerate toward freedom, experience new things and enjoy the rush of wind – with the BMW R nineT Scrambler. A rugged bike with that authentic scrambler look, combined with the innovative technology and familiar quality of BMW Motorrad.

Whether in the city, on winding country roads or on the beach, the potent opposed-twin engine and high-positioned dual silencers deliver powerful acceleration and an unmistakeable sound. Even long trips with two people are a breeze thanks to the relaxed seating position. And in just a few steps you can give your R nineT Scrambler your own personal touch.

BMW Motorrad R NineT Scrambler

Typical Scrambler.

The R nineT Scrambler harks back to the legendary scrambler era and has all the hallmarks of this extraordinary type of motorcycle: a telescopic fork with bellows, a distinctive raised exhaust and a large 19-inch front wheel. The compact steel tank in Monolith metallic matt highlights the puristic look. In addition, the optional cross-spoke wheels with studded off-road tyres make it clear from the first glance that no tour need be over when the road comes to an end. The seat in leather style and the speedometer with analogue display are also eye-catchers. High-quality details like the round headlights with BMW emblem make the classical heritage look perfect.

Powerful boxer for dynamic riding fun.

The engine and electrical system are already proven components of the BMW R nineT. The beefy, air-cooled twin-cylinder boxer engine features a capacity of 1170 cc and 81 kW (110 bhp) of output for a highly dynamic riding experience. And thanks to standard ABS and optional ASC you can take this power safely to the streets any time.

Casual Scrambler feeling.

A relaxed upright seating riding position is one of the key features of a scrambler. It not only looks laid back, it also makes for a relaxed ride feel.

Even long rides to the nearest beach are a breeze thanks to the bike's higher handlebars as compared with the R nineT, slightly reduced seat cushioning and footrests that are positioned somewhat lower and further to the rear.

Choose your style.

Your motorcycle, your choice: There are three different paintworks for the R nineT Scrambler. Make a decision between Stereo metallic matt or the two finishes from the individualisation offer of BMW Motorrad Option 719 Black storm metallic / Aurum and Option 719 Black storm metallic / Light white.

No limits.

Endless customisation: The R nineT Scrambler provides a whole host of ways to change the visual appearance and, therefore, the character of the dynamic boxer completely to your taste. With the tailored range of exclusive designer optional equipment from BMW Motorrad Spezial and the Original BMW Motorrad accessories you can make the bike match perfectly with your personal preferences. Even professional customisers can really let off steam creatively: thanks to the high degree of customisation, there are practically no limits when it comes to the R nineT Scrambler.
