The BMW R 1100R, a motorcycle that defies convention with its bold, post-industrial design aesthetic. Exposed oil coolers, telelever front end, and fuel injectors are proudly displayed, setting it apart from its more conservative siblings.
The horizontally opposed Boxer engine, with 4 valves per cylinder, provides a unique character that’s both torquey and sure-footed. Paired with the Telelever front suspension and Paralever swingarm, this motorcycle is a joy to ride, devouring back roads with ease.
On the road, the R 1100R’s ergonomic design provides a comfortable riding position, with a wide seat offering great support. However, long-distance riding is hampered by the lack of wind protection and high bars. Nevertheless, this motorcycle is a true roadster, designed for spirited riding and unapologetic fun.
