With the R nineT, BMW Motorrad presented more than just a classic roadster in 2013. From the very beginning, she combined classic motorcycle design and modern technology with high craftsmanship and a wide range of possibilities for individualization. A short time later, the R nineT found attractive derivatives in the BMW Motorrad adventure world Heritage: the R nineT Urban G/S as enduro with the genes of the legendary R 80 G/S from 1980, the R nineT Scrambler as a tribute to this special motorcycle genre for people who love the purist, reduced and non-conform, and the R nineT Pure as the most essential reduced roadster. For the upcoming 2021 season, BMW Motorrad has now sharpened the R nineT family with some technical changes as well as significantly expanded standard and special equipment.

Boxer engine according to EU-5 regulations with new cylinder heads, even more torque and optimized design.

For use in the new R nineT models, the boxer engine was fine-tuned both technical and optical and is now designed for the regulations of the pollutant class EU-5. Its peak power is now 80 kW (109 hp) at 7250 min-1 (previously 81 kW (110 hp) at 7750 min-1), the maximum torque is still 116 Nm at 6000 min-1. Newly designed cylinder heads ensure a more harmonious transition from the outer to the inner cooling fins and redesigned throttle parts and cylinder head hoods now make it look even more aesthetic.

A new turbulence system is used inside the cylinder heads, which ensures even better and cleaner combustion and more torque by means of a swirl of the mixture. Thanks to an even fuller power and torque flow, especially in the range between 4000 and 6000 rpm, noticeably better pull-through values are now realized than the predecessor.

ABS Pro including DBC (Dynamic Brake Control), new strut with away-dependent damping (WAD) as well as driving modes "Rain" and "Road" now as standard.

Already in series production, the new R nineT models now feature ABS Pro in conjunction with DBC (Dynamic Brake Control) for more safety when braking – even in an inclined position and in difficult situations. Also part of the standard range is a new strut with away-dependent damping (WAD) and thus more suspension comfort and convenient adjustment of the spring preload via a handwheel. The "Rain" and "Road" driving modes are now also standard on board.

Classic round instrument with new dial, LED light units and USB charging socket as standard.

A circular instrument with a redesigned dial on which the BMW logo is depicted, as well as "invisible" indicator lights in a non-luminous state, further complements the new range of series series of The R nineT models. Also as standard, the new R nineT models now feature a headlamp and white flashing lights in LED technology. The extended range of the new R nineT models is complemented by a USB charging socket.

A wealth of new equipment options, from innovative technology to individual design and new colours.

In terms of both technical and optical aspects, BMW Motorrad is following in the back of the new R nineT models. As a new single equipment, driving modes Pro with the additional driving modes "Dyna" for the R nineT and R nineT Pure as well as "Dirt" for the R nineT Scrambler and R nineT Urban G/S, the dynamic traction control DTC (Dynamic Traction Control) and the motor towing torque control (MSR) are now available. Also new in the area of optional equipment is the Comfort Package, consisting of driving modes Pro, a speed control and heated steering handles. Also new in the range are the special cornering light and the design option rear silencer.

With the traditional "Option 719" especially exclusive and high-quality optional equipment is available to customize an R nineT according to your personal taste. New in this exclusive parts range are optional equipment ex works for example various wheels, milling parts packages as well as in the original BMW Motorrad accessories range a rear conversion with short rear (rear short) and license plate carrier behind the rear wheel as well as a rear end in tracker style (rear end tracker). The refinement of the R nineT model family is rounded off by new series and special colours. Of particular importance is the "Edition 40 Years GS" of the R nineT Urban G/S. In a limited range, this unique edition model celebrates the 40th birthday of the BMW Motorrad GS family in a colourful reference to the legendary R 100 GS.
