🦪 Bmw Motorrad Concept R18

Thisyear's Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este in Italy saw a different kind of ode to the heritage of vintage BMW bikes: a new Concept R18 wrapped in old parts. The BMW Motorrad Concept R18 merges

Concept R 18 /2 makes EICMA debut Second BMW Motorrad cruiser concept unveiled Just six months ago, BMW Motorrad took the custom scene by storm with the world premiere of the Concept R 18 at the Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este. Now, a second design study featuring the awe-inspiring 1800cc flat-twin engine has been successfully presented in Milan at the international EICMA motorcycle exhibition. Concept R 18 /2 paves the way. Concept R 18 /2 paves the way. Simply designated Concept R 18 /2’, this completely new and markedly different interpretation of a dynamic performance cruiser shows the true versatility of the big-boxer’ platform and gives fans of the genre a strong suggestion of what to look forward to when a series production cruiser from BMW Motorrad enters the market in 2020. Cruiser fans have already been enticed on several occasions over the past 12 months, not only by the Concept R 18, but also by the two fascinating custom builds from Japan and the USA that used BMW Motorrad’s big boxer engine as a base – namely CUSTOM WORKS ZON’s Departed’ and Revival Cycles’ Birdcage’. Expect the unexpected. Expect the unexpected. However, no one was expecting what would follow next – direct from BMW Motorrad’s design studio in Munich and finished to perfection by Swedish builders UCC. Enter the Concept R 18 /2, a more dynamic, modern cruiser interpretation that occupies a place towards the performance end of the segment, while retaining the elegant proportions of its predecessor. The /2 displays a more extrovert character that’s far removed from the chrome-laden, retro feel of the original Concept R 18. The latest big boxer wears its colours proudly, with deep, multi-layered paintwork contrasting with dark frame, forks, valve covers and seat. " With the Concept R 18 and this /2 project, we wanted to show two bookends –this is completely on the other side. “ Bart Janssen Groesbeek BMW Motorrad Design Sign up for the newsletter and don't miss anything anymore. Dynamic details. Dynamic details. A closer look reveals black and white cast wheels rather than spoked on silver rims with dimensions of 19” front and 16” rear. A modified R nineT Racer bikini fairing sits on top of the raked forks and triples, offering stylish protection from the elements, while high-end Brembo brakes suggest stopping power worthy of this performance cruiser. Gone is the floating leather saddle from the Concept R 18, replaced with a one-and-a-half person chopper-style seat, lending the bike a more dynamic, hot-rod character. Underneath a subframe, the rear fender has been bobbed and fixed to the frame, so it appears to hug the rear wheel. Begs to be ridden, not just admired. Begs to be ridden, not just admired. Whereas the original Concept R 18 is undoubtedly a thing of beauty, its sibling is designed to show just how flexible the base engine and chassis is as a starting point for customisation, and how easy it is to break out into different styles – in this case, a contemporary dynamic softtail with the character of a customised production motorcycle, rather than the uniqueness of the Concept R 18. " The Concept R 18 had this jewel quality from the past. With the /2 the character is much more achievable, like a modified production bike. “ Bart Janssen Groesbeek BMW Motorrad Design While the Concept R 18 took its creators deep into the brand’s past for inspiration, the /2 has more of a ’80s feel to it and has clearly been designed for higher speeds and longer distances. It’s lowered – but not nearly as low as the Concept R 18 – and the rider enjoys a more dynamic seating position, with less of a stretch to the higher bars. The low and long proportions are traditional for the segment, with the tank and frame cradling the huge muscular engine with its black metal-finished, stainless steel valve covers. Sitting higher than the Concept R 18, the /2 exudes an attitude that is not overly aggressive, but still sporty. As a fitting compliment to the original design strategy, the frame is shared with the Concept R 18, with no change in dimensions, angles or the distinctive flyline. The exposed shaft-drive remains, as does the classic teardrop tank. To complete the customised production look, the exhaust is made by German outfit Hattech, which has an established reputation for fabricating mufflers for classic and custom BMW bikes. The manufacturing process Less elegant, more raw attitude With the /2, the aim is to show the flexibility inherent in the original design concept, which allows for small changes to various body parts, without the main components frame/tank/engine etc. needing any degree of modification. Conceived by BMW Motorrad and hand-crafted by respected enthusiasts, the /2 definitely demonstrates this flexibility – exuding a completely different character, despite the same basic backbone. It’s a successful continuation of the story that leads us ever closer towards a genuine, series production cruiser in 2020. Until then, enjoy seeing the Concept R 18 /2 at motorcycle events across the globe. Concept R 18 roars into life. BMW Motorrad custom concept unveiled at Villa d’Este. Learn more
TheBMW Motorrad Concept R18 shows how a forward projection of a 1960s boxer engine could look like today as a purist custom bike in combination with all the classic design icons of BMW Motorrad design. "With its clear aesthetics openly on display, the Concept R18 embodies for me what motorcycling, at its core, is really about. MUNICH/CERNOBBIO – May 25, 2019 – Motor Sports Newswire – Against the backdrop of a bustling mix of the traditional and the modern on show at the Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este, BMW Motorrad presents an engaging alternative for a time that is being increasingly characterised by rapid technological change. You could see it as a return to the brand’s core, but given a modern twist the BMW Motorrad Concept R18 transports the essence of the big BMW Motorrad classics into the modern age, or in other words, it is taking a historical motorcycle design and giving it a modern, custom attitude. Dr. Markus Schramm, head of BMW Motorrad, describes the design as follows “With this dream bike, BMW Motorrad presents its own version of an emotional and authentic offer for the large cruiser segment.” The BMW Motorrad Concept R18 shows how a forward projection of a 1960s boxer engine could look like today as a purist custom bike in combination with all the classic design icons of BMW Motorrad design. “With its clear aesthetics openly on display, the Concept R18 embodies for me what motorcycling, at its core, is really about. It is all about feeling instead of thinking, and not using technology for self-staging, instead giving space for imagination. This concept bike appeals to something deep down – you just want to just get on it and ride off. But when you get off it again, you don’t just put it in the garage and walk away – you turn around again and give it a final parting glance”, explains Edgar Heinrich, head of BMW Motorrad Design. Consistently purist design with timeless proportions. The BMW Motorrad Concept R18 is the essence of motorcycling, a bike in its original, natural form. In true custom style, it celebrates the art of leaving out what you don’t need and then concentrating on what is left. “The biggest challenge in the design is to render everything visible. Every part has a functional purpose. There are not many who would dare to take such an absolutely honest approach”, says Bart Janssen Groesbeek, designer of the concept bike. The BMW Motorrad Concept R18 is immediately recognisable as a genuine BMW boxer engine, cradle frame, exposed universal shaft and drop-shaped fuel tank with its black paintwork and hand-applied contrast lines interpret typical design icons of BMW Motorrad classics, while displaying confidence along with modern-style linearity. The balanced proportions are reminiscent of classics like the BMW R5, and convey – even from a distance – the timeless beauty that comes about whenever things are consistently reduced to their bare essentials. The frame and tank create a common line all the way from the steering head to the rear wheel hub and lend a flowing elegance to the side view. The large spoke wheels front 21 inch, rear 18 inch provide a secure stance and perfectly balance the dominant power unit. The tyres are a further reference to history just as it was in its day, this bike is again fitted with Metzeler tyres. The BMW boxer tradition brings out new splendour. The heart of the BMW Motorrad Concept R18 is the large, newly designed, two-cylinder 1800 cc boxer engine. Its outward appearance is consciously reminiscent of the flat twin engines that BMW Motorrad used to build up until the end of the 1960s – but with a considerably bigger displacement and modern air/oil cooling. The big prototype boxer has been designed down to the last detail the engine block and transmission are made of glass bead-blasted aluminium, providing an ideal stage on which to present the hand-polished aluminium components as well as the belt guard and valve covers. The engine badge bears the name of the concept bike and emphasises the overall quality. In addition, Solex dual carburettors – similar to those in the BMW 2002 – hark back to the brand’s construction history and add the final touch to the bike’s visual authenticity. Another optical highlight is the exposed, chrome-plated universal shaft that connects the back wheel to the drive. There are no further covers anywhere on the motorcycle, which serves to keep its engineering clearly visible. Similarly, the electronics of the concept bike are reduced to no more than starter and lights, underlining its purist design. The BMW Motorrad Concept R18 is the third in-house interpretation of the large-capacity boxer engine to come from BMW Motorrad. Last December the model created by the Japanese customisers, CUSTOM WORKS ZON was presented at the Yokohama Hot Rod Show, on the basis of this new prototype engine. The Departed’ won the biggest accolade of the event, the ’Best of Show Motorcycle’ award, thrilling motorcycle fans with its classic forms, modern production techniques and all manner of manual art and craft in the details. The next round was the interpretation by Revival Cycles. The customisers from Austin, Texas created a spectacular bike with their Revival Birdcage’ model, an ideal presentation platform for the Big Boxer. The specially developed titanium frame features an unobstructed view of the engine and drive from all angles. This American design created a furore at last month’s Handbuilt Show in Texas. High quality details in fine custom work. As for its colour design, the BMW Motorrad Concept R18 shows itself to be a classic. The theme is typical BMW the white, hand-applied lines on the fork and fuel tank in combination with the black base colour represent the classic BMW colour theme. A discreet yellow-gold varnish effect lends the bright twin lines an exclusive touch, and the black effect paintwork on the tank and fork rods similarly reveal, in the best custom style, an unusual depth when the sunlight strikes the large metallic particles in the various layers of the paintwork. The visual design of the imprinted single leather seat is borrowed from the classics of the 1950s. Reinterpreted and somewhat more comfortable, its quality embossing sits perfectly within the overall purist and high-class design. The cantilever spring strut is integrated beneath the seat. The graphics of the headlamp design are also reminiscent of the 1950s. The classic U shape of the original glass cover components are now interpreted as LED lamp elements. Every one of these details contributes to the unique character of the concept bike and underlines its overall statement. The BMW Motorrad Concept R18 merges traditional and historic design language with the current functionalities of BMW Motorrad in a coherent and cohesive whole. Moreover, an exclusive and suitably themed horse leather jacket, which recreates the aesthetics of those days, has been designed especially for the presentation of the concept bike at the Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este. The leather jacket features a very smooth surface with only little grain and the protectors are integrated almost invisibly. A counterpoint to contemporary times. “For me, motorcycles like the BMW Motorrad Concept R18 are a response to a growing need among the motorcycling community instead of technology, the focus here is on simplification, authenticity and transparency. I observe an almost romantic yearning for real mechanical engineering. Our aim with this concept bike is to address this need and turn it into an analogue statement in a digital age. We have a rich history of iconic motorcycles, and they all bear the same design characteristics. We believe that this can still work well together today with the current technology,” says Edgar Heinrich in conclusion.

BMW Motorrad announces updates and changes to model year 2023 motorcycles and scooters. "A picture is worth a thousand words" is a well-known adage reflecting the notion that a complex idea can be conveyed with a single image, which more effectively conveys its essence than does a adage came immediately to mind when the new BMW Motorrad "Concept R 18" was shown at Concorso d'Elegenza Villa d'Este on the weekend. Whilst it is indeed only a concept for the flying propellor brand, the "Concept R 18" is effectively the first shot in a war. It represents the first offensive on Harley-Davidson and Indian territory. Harley still rules the cruiser marketplace globally, having sold 228,000 hogs last year, compared to BMW's worldwide sales of 165,000 motorcycles across myriad segments ... but the new BMW liter boxer engine seems to fulfill all the criteria required to give both Harley and Indian a run for their starters, BMW has the credibility and longevity to match the American brands, but with the new engine, it has the cubic twin-cylinder grunt to more than match them in the cruiser litres isn't enough, rumors already suggest a 2000cc version of the BMW horizontally-opposed twin will also be available, no doubt with Harley-Davidson's 1923cc and Indian's 1901cc V-twins in mind as its primary most remarkable aspect of the Concept R 18 is that the new big bore BMW boxer motorcycle engine it contains has been shown previously. We've seen two custom motorcycles using the new big bore boxer engine over the last six months and the release of a new engine to custom builders prior to its showing in a factory-produced motorcycle is unprecedented. 'Departed' was shown last December 2018 at the fabled "Mooneyes Show" in Yokohama in Japan. In the 27 years the show has been running, it has become one of the most important on the world custom stage, and the December show attracted 300 show cars and 650 show motorcycles. 'Departed' won the prestigious "Best of Show Motorcycle" award, at the same time as creating a stir among BMW aficionados about the engine which was publicly acknowledged by the BMW factory as a prototype for the first Motorrad That's the Custom Works Zon "Departed" which was shown last December 2018 at the fabled Mooneyes Show in Yokohama in Japan.

"Departed" won the prestigious Best of Show Motorcycle award, at the same time as creating a stir among BMW aficionados about the engine, which was publicly acknowledged by the BMW factory as a prototype for the first time. The new large capacity boxer engine is believed to be ready for production in both 1800cc and 2000cc capacities, with further derivative models to be shown later this year and next year 2020.BMW Motorrad Dubbed the R 18, which according to BMW's traditional nomenclature, indicates it has a capacity of around 1800cc, the geometry and elements present in the show bike were reminiscent of much older BMW Motorrad engines. The push rods running above the cylinders in chrome-plated protection ducts were used in BMW boxer engines in the 1960s, and if you check out "Departed" in the image gallery for this article, you'll see the valve gear covers were styled on pre-WW2 BMW engines, despite the equally obvious modern day air/oil cooling. Six weeks ago in April, 2019, a second custom bike using the BMW prototype engine appeared at the annual Handbuilt Show in Austin, Texas. Austin is also the home of renowned American custom craftsman Alan Stulberg's Revival Cycles, and the 'Revival Birdcage' show bike was clearly inspired by Ernst Hennes' speed record BMW machinery from the late 1920s and early 1930s, which wore similar polished aluminum teardrop valve-gear Motorrad Six weeks ago in April, 2019, a second custom bike using the BMW prototype engine appeared at the annual Handbuilt Show in Austin, Texas. Austin is also the home of renowned American custom craftsman Alan Stulberg's Revival Cycles, and the "Revival Birdcage" show bike was clearly inspired by Ernst Hennes' speed record BMW machinery from the late 1920s and early 1930s, which wore similar polished aluminum teardrop valve-gear two custom motorcycles somewhat disguised the sheer physical size of the prototype engine by dressing it in different contexts and with cylinder heads that evoked different eras of the company's signature boxer twin engine. This time, although the R 18 Concept bike also relies heavily on historic cues in evoking the company's near 100 year heritage, the magnitude of the big bore engine is suddenly evident because we can see it in a relatively traditional BMW form factor. BMW Motorrad's "Concept R18" motorcycle was shown for the first time at Concorso d'Elegenza Villa d'Este 2019 - the nomenclature suggests it has a capacity around the 1800cc Motorrad Those protruding pots are HUGE, and after 98 years of producing horizontally-opposed motorcycle engines, BMW has suddenly raised the boxer engine's capacity by a whopping 50 percent, stepping it up from middleweight to heavyweight class ... BMW Motorrad l Concept R 18 ... and the intention is suddenly clear that it is going after Harley-Davidson's heavyweight crown in the cruiser class of motorcycles."Naturally we want to keep growing," said Timo Resch, Vice President Sales and Marketing BMW Motorrad at the unveiling of the "Revival Birdcage" show bike. In the context of what we have now seen at Villa d'Este, his words take on much more meaning "One step we will take to do so, certainly in the US market, is to enter the Cruiser segment. BMW Motorrad is consistently pursuing its growth strategy with the clear aim of becoming the number one in the Premium Big Bike Segment."I've owned and tested Harley-Davidson and BMW twins for almost 50 years, and I've always thought of the BMW twins as more like a Swiss watch and Harley V-twins as more like Big Ben, despite their similar engine capacities. Those protruding pots are HUGE, and after 98 years of producing horizontally-opposed motorcycle engines, BMW has suddenly raised the boxer engine's capacity by a whopping 50 percent, stepping it up several orders of magnitude from middleweight to heavyweight classBMW Motorrad There's something about the exquisite primary balance of the BMW Motorrad horizontally-opposed engine that makes it feel more like a scalpel than a meat axe, but the emergence of this new big bore version of the age old design puts it firmly into Harley-Davidson territory. With Indian also providing a credible alternative to the Harley-Davidson cruisers, the stage looks set for a battle BMW

Concept cruiser steals the show at the Concorso. Concept cruiser steals the show at the Concorso. It has become something of a tradition for BMW Motorrad to present breathtaking design studies in Italy every May at the Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este event on the shores of Lake Como. Visitors to the world’s most exclusive beauty contest’ for historic cars and motorcycles have witnessed some outstanding two-wheeled contributions from BMW Motorrad’s design department in recent years. These have included the Concept Ninety homage to the original R 90 S, the Concept 101 six-cylinder bagger’ and the R 5 Hommage – a tribute to the original and iconic 1936 model. Riders from around the world have noted with significant interest two fascinating custom bikes recently unveiled by reputable builders in Japan and the USA featuring prototypes of BMW Motorrad’s big boxer engine. The builders – CUSTOM WORKS ZON and Revival Cycles – were each given free rein for their own interpretations of how a large-capacity boxer custom bike could look. And the stunning results witnessed in the Departed’ and Birdcage’ builds have begged the question among enthusiasts – how might a genuine BMW Motorrad hand-built’ machine look and sound?

It’s not about being the fastest. " Edgar Heinrich BMW Motorrad Head of Design Well, the wait is over. And judging by the enthusiastic reaction of those who saw and heard it unveiled at the 90th anniversary Concorso’ celebratory event, the Concept R 18 is set to win the hearts and souls of fans worldwide. Equally exciting, BMW Motorrad will be presenting a series production cruiser motorcycle powered by the big boxer’ engine in 2020. If it looks and performs anything like the Concept R 18, custom bike riders are in for a treat. " We have a history other companies would kill for, and it’s great to capitalize on it. " Edgar Heinrich BMW Motorrad Head of Design Stripped-back and naked, BMW Motorrad style. Stripped-back and naked, BMW Motorrad style. Lay your eyes on the Concept R 18 and it’s clear that a desire to make an authentic, pure, hand-built, custom bike has taken the designers deep into the brand’s past for inspiration. Without a doubt, these talented enthusiasts – many of whom chop’ bikes in their spare time – have certainly made good on the promise initially shown with the unveiling of the R 5 Hommage in 2016, exactly 80 years after the legendary sports boxer made its debut. This segment needs a big motor, so if the 500cc unit of the original R 5 doesn’t cut it by modern standards then the biggest motorcycle boxer engine of all time certainly does.

The focus is the huge boxer engine – physically much larger in size than the 500cc version used in the hommage showbike, and designed to make a real statement. The spoked wheels have been chosen 21” front and 19” rear to match the considerable proportions and the overall stance of this latest showbike which exudes attitude and presence.

Low and long, raked out and understated, the Concept R 18 is a thing of beauty, with its polished aluminum cylinder covers, subtle color treatment to the motor, teardrop tank and fork, and areas of pin-striping with golden yellow tint in the deep, layered paint treatment. There are only three metal surface treatments used – either blasted, painted or polished – to give a clean, authentic atmosphere for the bike, while the iconic Metzeler-branded RILLE tires have a custom-made tread pattern and special color treatment on the sidewalls. Anyone familiar with BMW bikes from the 50s will recognize the Pagusa-style seat, with embossed logo and hammered area on the leather. Uncomplicated riding that feeds your soul.

Open shaft-drive, cantilever rear suspension, a twin-Solex carburetor from a BMW 2002 car, a 1950s Bosch-inspired LED headlight mounted between the fork legs, no visible switchgear – the list goes on. And a walk around the Concept R 18 as the motor’s plaquette proudly states includes many surprises. For sure, it’s the continuation of a story that started with the R 5 Hommage.

Its no secret that BMW Motorrad has a big-bore cruiser in the works. And the teaser campaign has been inspired—with spectacular scratch-built bikes from Custom Works Zon and Revival Cycles showcasing the mighty new powerplant. The Germans have finally revealed their own prototype: the BMW Concept R18. It's long, low and devastatingly beautiful. BMW invited us to Lake Como to watch the Concept R 18 roars into life. BMW Motorrad custom concept unveiled at Villa d’Este. It’s the world premiere that the custom scene has been eagerly awaiting – a BMW Motorrad custom concept featuring a new prototype flat-twin engine – the highest capacity boxer motorcycle ever produced. Simply christened Concept R 18’, this pure, stripped-down, raked-out bike gives more than a hint of what’s coming our way in the cruiser segment. Concept cruiser steals the show at the Concorso. Concept cruiser steals the show at the Concorso. It has become something of a tradition for BMW Motorrad to present breathtaking design studies in Italy every May at the Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este event on the shores of Lake Como. Visitors to the world’s most exclusive beauty contest’ for historic cars and motorcycles have witnessed some outstanding two-wheeled contributions from BMW Motorrad’s design department in recent years. These have included the Concept Ninety homage to the original R 90 S, the Concept 101 six-cylinder bagger’ and the R 5 Hommage – a tribute to the original and iconic 1936 model. Fans of the burgeoning cruiser segment have noted with significant interest two fascinating custom bikes recently unveiled by reputable builders in Japan and the USA that have both featured prototypes of BMW Motorrad’s big boxer engine. The builders – CUSTOM WORKS ZON and Revival Cycles – were each given free rein for their own interpretations of how a large-capacity boxer custom bike could look, and the stunning results witnessed in the Departed’ and Birdcage’ models that followed have begged the question among enthusiasts in the scene – how might a genuine BMW Motorrad hand-built’ machine look and sound?

It’s not about being the fastest. “ Edgar Heinrich BMW Motorrad Head of Design Well, the wait is over, and judging by the enthusiastic reaction of the visitors who saw and heard! it unveiled at the 90th anniversary Concorso’ celebratory event, the Concept R 18 is set to win the hearts and souls of many fans worldwide, for whom heritage and history are important factors – even in a modern interpretation of a cruiser. Equally exciting is the fact that BMW Motorrad will be presenting a series production cruiser motorcycle powered by the big boxer’ engine during 2020. If it looks and performs anything like the Concept R 18, then custom bike fans are in for a treat. " We have a history other companies would kill for, and it’s great to capitalise on it. “ Edgar Heinrich BMW Motorrad Head of Design Stripped-back and laid-bare, BMW Motorrad style. Stripped-back and laid-bare, BMW Motorrad style. Feast your eyes on the Concept R 18 and it’s clear that a desire to make a true, pure-emotion, hand-built, custom bike has taken the designers deep into the brand’s past for inspiration. Without a doubt these talented enthusiasts – many of whom chop’ bikes in their spare time – have certainly made good on the promise initially shown with the unveiling of the R 5 Hommage in 2016, exactly 80 years after the legendary sports boxer made its debut. For this segment though you need a big motor, so if the 500cc unit of the original R 5 doesn’t cut it by modern standards then the biggest motorcycle boxer engine of all time certainly does.

After the Concept R 18 showcased at this year’s edition of the Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este, BMW Motorrad is now premiering the reinterpretation of the heritage motorbike concept. The R 18 /2, pronounced Slash Two, is a modern cruiser which shows the multi-faceted personality of the original R 18 is all about one engine, two characters. The R 18 and the R 18 /2 are so different, yet they share the same basic engine architecture. The big boxer engine now powers a modern and muscular cruiser motorbike. The same architecture deployed on the original R 18 concept bike is further conceptualized in the modern Slash Two, showing just how stylishly versatile design can Heinrich, chief designer for BMW Motorrad, describes the concept bike “In contrast to the classic, elegant BMW Motorrad Concept R 18, the Concept R 18 /2 draws on its large boxer engine and frame to create a modern custom concept. The Concept R 18 /2 is uniquely extrovert. Elements from the past and future of BMW Motorrad merge here to create a captivating cruiser, making a powerful statement. It’s a highly emotional bike designed for active riding. At the same time, the Concept R 18 /2 reflects the range of characterizations and customer dreams that we are able to realize using the same backbone.”The centerpiece of the design is the big 2-cylinder boxer engine, with modern dual oil-air cooling system and the 1960s-inspired styling, having a total displacement of 1,800 cubic centimeters. The cover of the boxer powerplant is colored in a warm grey shade. The BMW logos on the engine cover and the tear-drop shaped fuel tank resemble the classic emblem design of the pre-60s era with narrow font large-sized wheels, manufactured from cast iron, remind of a dragster design, given the larger 19″ wheel at the front and the 16″ wheel at the rear. The paint finish in Candy Red Apple metallic color further accentuates the striking design of the modern Slash well, the graphic design lines virtually extending towards the shortened rear wheel cover create the visual impression of a flowing structure and powerfully round off the whole styling R 18 /2 motorbike concept is the perfect demonstration of how versatile the old boxer engine design of the 30s can be and how conveniently it can reshaped in either a classic and a modern way. Bart Janssen Groesbeek, BMW Motorrad Vehicle Designer for the Big Boxer Concepts further explains“After the BMW Motorrad Concept R 18, our aim with the Concept R 18 /2 is to demonstrate how flexible the basic engine and suspension are as a starting point for customization, and how easy it is to authentically realize different styles. And I have to admit we were very impressed at how it was possible to bring this boxer concept forward from the 30s via the 80s into the 2020s.”
