The Guerrilla 450 is a motorcycle that embodies character, substance and defiance, much like Royal Enfield’s fiercely unique journey of building motorcycles that stand apart from the rest. The “guerrilla” in Royal Enfield has been evident in its portfolio of class-defining and award-winning motorcycles that have challenged dreary monotony, and have been developed for one purpose alone; the pure fun of motorcycling. The Guerrilla 450 marks a significant evolution in the long and storied legacy of strong roadsters from Royal Enfield that continue to lead categories.

Speaking about the Guerrilla 450, Siddhartha Lal, managing director of Eicher Motors Ltd., said, “The Guerrilla 450 is our take on modern roasters, and we are super happy with how it has turned out. The motorcycle is mechanically characterful, super sophisticated and combines performance, versatility and confidence-inspiring handling. It is built on the same platform as the Himalayan, but tuned to roadster performance that makes it feel excitingly different when you ride it. The Guerrilla really brings out what roadsters were always meant to do. It is super responsive and absolutely gorgeous to ride at everyday speeds and equally delightful when revved through its paces on full gas. The engine, the chassis, the riding position and the superlative handling of the motorcycle all come together to truly make it much more than the sum of its parts.”

The Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 will also be called the Royal Enfield GRR 450 in most of the Latin American markets. The lineup features three variants – Analogue, Dash and Flash – and five vibrant colorways. Bookings in India open at an introductory price of INR 2,39,000 with test rides and retails beginning on August 1, 2024. In Europe as well, bookings start at the price of 4,850 euros in the U.K. and 5,290 pounds MSRP in Germany with retails expected to begin mid-August.

Speaking about the new motorcycle, B Govindarajan, CEO of Royal Enfield, said, “The Guerrilla 450 is an absolutely gorgeous and game-changing roadster. When we started with the Sherpa 450 platform, we envisaged an adventure tourer and a superlative roadster that would be distinctly Royal Enfield. The Guerrilla 450 is just that – a roadster full of character and confidence. Developed in parallel with the Himalayan, the Guerrilla is tuned to perfection for city riding as well as weekend rides through twisty roads. It has amazing on-road handling, coupled with accessible power delivery, and superb chassis dynamics enhance the character of the motorcycle and offer amazing performance, stability and easy maneuverability. We’ve had a great time testing this motorcycle and riding it around the world. It really grows on you and allows you to grow in confidence as a rider.”

The All-Roadster

The Guerrilla 450 premium roadster is engineered for all kinds of tarmac. With the characterful 452cc Sherpa engine tuned for exciting roadster performance, a steel twin spar tubular frame, a dynamic riding stance that allows upright posture or a slightly sporty lean-in, the Guerrilla 450 truly goes back to OG roadster basics. Its dynamic ergonomics and sprightly performance lend it unparalleled versatility and responsiveness that make for a delightful ride. Whether it is a tucked-in, lean forward, full-gas sprint over twisty routes, or tackling rough city-streets and traffic snarls, a lazy Sunday morning ride or a weekend haul over long distances, the Guerilla is eager and pliant to do it all, making it a true “all-roadster.”

GRR – More Growl for the Prowl

The Guerrilla 450 is powered by the new and advanced 452cc single-cylinder liquid-cooled Sherpa engine and is engineered for an eager and spirited roadster performance. This powertrain debuted in the award-winning Himalayan 450 adventure tourer and has since gained huge appreciation. Equipped with a four-valve DOHC setup, the Guerrilla 450 delivers an impressive 40 horsepower at 8,000 rpm and 40 Newton-meters of peak torque at 5,500 rpm, with more than 85% of this torque available starting at 3,000 rpm. Its water-cooled system features an integrated water pump, twin-pass radiator and internal bypass, ensuring optimal temperature control for peak performance in any condition. The six-speed gearbox with assist and slip clutch enhances high-speed cruising comfort and adds an extra layer of safety that makes the Guerrilla 450 a true testament to Royal Enfield’s innovative spirit and engineering excellence.

Return of the Real Roadster

Nothing out there looks and rides like the Guerrilla 450. It is packed with sophistication, intuition and sensation. It features a stepped bench-seat, a 11-liter fuel tank, LED headlights, trafficators with integrated tail lamp and an upswept silencer. Without any flashy features or pointless plastics, the Guerrilla has an athletic build with perfect angles, purposeful edges and muscles in all the right places. Stripped of distractions and engineered with purpose and authenticity, the Guerrilla 450 pays homage to the OGs of roadsters. With its sleek design, performance-led riding geometry and premium build quality, the Guerrilla 450 challenges the norms, bringing a fresh approach to motorcycling.

Intuitive Riding Ergonomics

The ergonomics on the Guerrilla 450 are designed to work in harmony with different riding styles, enabling riders to handle everything from fast-flowing, sweeping open roads to tight technical switchbacks. The rider geometry ensures that the stance remains upright thanks to the low seat and mid-set footpegs. With a dynamic chassis, the Guerrilla 450 is engineered for agility and quick handling, offering stable yet light handling and easy maneuverability. The 43-millimeter telescopic front fork and linkage-type mono-shock at the rear boost rider confidence without sacrificing comfort. Paired with 17-inch front and rear tubeless tires and 1440-millimeter wheelbase, the motorcycle maintains exceptional stability and control, ensuring a planted and stable, yet nimble ride. This engaging and responsive riding dynamic makes the Guerrilla 450 ideal for city commuting and spirited rides on winding roads, striking a balance between practicality and performance.

Switch Moods, Switch Modes

The Guerrilla 450 offers a dynamic riding experience tailored to the moods of the rider, thanks to its ultra-responsive Engine Management System (EMS) and ride-by-wire technology. With Performance Mode and Eco Mode, the rider can change the throttle response to suit their mood and riding conditions. Whether efficiently navigating bustling city streets or having more power to the throttle over twisties and open roads, this motorcycle allows the rider to have more fun with every ride.

Enabled by Technology, Not Defined by It

The top and mid variant of the Guerrilla comes with the new Tripper Dash, a four-inch infotainment cluster that offers a simple, intuitive user interface. The Tripper Dash, supported by the RE App, now has enhanced features like route-recording which can be exported in GPX format, enabling the rider to share experiences with their peers. The GPX file can be imported from any device to relive and recreate the ride experience. Beyond navigation, the interface offers music control, weather forecasts and comprehensive vehicle information. Royal Enfield Wingman will also be made available in the Guerrilla, sold as an MIY feature, enabling the rider to stay connected with the motorcycle and Royal Enfield GRID support at all times.

Royal Enfield GMA and Apparel

Genuine Motorcycle Accessories for the Guerrilla 450 are meticulously crafted, elevating both style and functionality. With inspirations taken from the flat-track scene and urban riding, the accessories include large engine guards and sump guards, an urban seat that adds to style and better saddle comfort, and tinted flyscreen and blacked out mirrors that enhance ride experience. The flat-track inspiration is evident in the bench seat, silver sump guard, headgrill, and halcyon black instrument cowl. One can additionally opt for compact engine guards and bar-end mirrors with supporting mounts for enhanced riding and aesthetics. The Guerrilla 450 comes with versatile luggage solutions like soft panniers for city adventures.

The Guerrilla 450 apparel range denotes Royal Enfield’s take on urban moto-culture. The t-shirts, caps and headgear are specially designed to appeal to the growing community of young and style-conscious riders. With the launch of the Guerrilla 450 roadster, Royal Enfield has introduced a new Crossroader riding jacket – India’s first riding jacket with 100% Titanium sliders. The CE certified class A jacket offers superior airflow with dual-sport fitting, thereby encouraging riders to explore the streets with safety, comfort and style.

Bookings have commenced across India, the U.K. and European countries, and deliveries will start in August 2024. The motorcycle will ride into the rest of the world in a phased manner by early next year. The lineup features three unique variants in stunning colorways. Royal Enfield has also launched the “Borderless Warranty Program” with the Guerrilla 450. This initiative is aimed at offering riders the freedom to ride more and explore without limits on their Royal Enfield motorcycle, backed by an extensive network of over 3,000 service centers across more than 70 countries, worldwide.

In India, the Guerrilla 450 will be launched in three variants – Analogue, Dash and Flash, with six options. Analogue will have Smoke Silver and Playa Black. This variant will not have a TFT cluster. Playa Black features again in Dash along with Gold Dip; both with TFT display. At Flash variant level, Yellow Ribbon and Brava Blue feature with top specs.

A Family of Cruisers

The current Softail chassis introduced in 2018 is the foundation of nine models in the 2024 global collection of Harley-Davidson Cruiser motorcycles, each engineered to be stiff and lightweight, for agility and performance that will exceed the expectations of the most-demanding cruiser riders.

The centerpiece of the Softail chassis is a rear mono-shock designed for premium suspension performance — a smooth ride and outstanding handling. The coil-over shock absorber is located below the seat, where it’s easy to reach for pre-load adjustment and placed at the optimal angle to achieve efficient control of wheel motion. The mono-shock rear suspension preserves the signature “hard tail” lines of the Softail chassis. Each current Cruiser model is powered by the proven Milwaukee-Eight V-twin engine featuring dual counter-balancers tuned to eliminate all primary vibration at idle speed, to enhance rider and passenger comfort and to permit the engines to be rigid-mounted in the frame. Rigid mounting stiffens the overall chassis and connects the rider more directly to the powertrain.

The 2024 Cruiser lineup is the most diverse in the Harley-Davidson motorcycle portfolio, featuring models from nostalgic to very modern. No matter the destination, the versatility of a Harley-Davidson Cruiser motorcycle makes the journey more enjoyable. The 2024 Cruiser models include:

• Softail Standard model: This is the essential Harley-Davidson cruiser experience with a lean, lightweight frame; classic chrome; and polished finishes at a price that leaves budget headroom for customization.
• Street Bob 114 model: No-nonsense raw bobber attitude from the mini ape handlebar to the chopped rear fender that’s coupled with modern tech like the digital riser gauge and signature LED forward lighting. The ideal ride for customers that want equal parts style, performance and rideability.
• Low Rider S model: Straight from the factory, this bike bundles the big attitude of West Coast style and unrelenting performance previously only attainable with significant investment in accessories.
• Low Rider ST model: Detachable hard saddlebags and an aerodynamic fairing create a weekend escape machine for the rider who digs pure clean-and-lean West Coast style and craves outrageous performance.
• Breakout model: With long and lean chopper styling, the Breakout model flexes more muscle than any other bike out there. The unrelenting power of a Milwaukee-Eight 117 engine is delivered to a fat, 240-millimeter rear tire exposed by the arrogant flip of a bobtail fender.
• Heritage Classic 114 model: The quintessential American cruiser with show-stopping vintage details and pure rock and roll style drapes the Softail platform in pure nostalgia inspired by Harley-Davidson models from the 1950s.
• Fat Boy 114 model: The original fat-custom icon commands the road with a steamroller stance, cast aluminum Lakester wheels and a unique headlamp nacelle.
• Fat Bob 114 model: Built to conquer city streets with power and agility with a full arsenal of high-performance technology: dual front disc brakes, an inverted race-style front fork and 2-1-2 custom styled exhaust.
• Sport Glide model: Detachable bags and fairing make this bike a true convertible in style and attitude — a great solution for the rider that craves versatility.

Softail Origins

In the early 1980s, Harley-Davidson acquired a concept motorcycle from independent design engineer Bill Davis, who experimented with suspension supported by hidden rear shock absorbers on a Big Twin frame. Harley-Davidson engineers perfected the design, introduced in 1984 as the FXST Softail model. The frame offered customers clean styling and the classic “hard-tail” lines favored by custom bike builders but sacrificed none of the comfort and handling offered by full rear suspension. The placement of the horizontal, gas-charged shock absorbers beneath the transmission also allowed for a lower seating position.

The 1984 FXST Softail model also introduced the all-new Evolution V-Twin powertrain, which would replace the aging Shovelhead engine as it was phased into the Big Twin lineup. At a time when the company was struggling financially, the Evolution engine and the Softail chassis combined to help return Harley-Davidson to a competitive position in the marketplace.

“When I think back on the timing of the FXST Softail model and its impact on the market — we were struggling new owners — I realize how critical this great new engine and chassis were to our survival,” wrote former Chief Styling Officer Willie G. Davidson in his “100 years of Harley-Davidson” book. “The Softail line has been a perennial best-seller and a favorite among motorcyclists. It successfully blends the past with current technology and appeals to Harley riders everywhere.”

The versatility of the Softail platform would enable the introduction of subsequent new motorcycle models in a wide range of styles. Some historic highlights include:

• 1986 Heritage Softail: The FL front end, full skirted front fender, laced wheels and prominent headlamp reflect styling elements of the 1949 FL Hydra-Glide models. It’s a classic look that says “Harley-Davidson” to riders and non-riders alike.
• 1988 Springer Softail: The resurrection of the visual excitement of a Springer front suspension — discontinued by Harley-Davidson after 1952 in favor of hydraulic forks — was a bold styling move.
• 1990 Fat Boy: One of the most iconic models in Harley-Davidson history, distinguished by its solid cast aluminum wheels and massive presence, remains in the Cruiser portfolio today.
• 1999 Softail Deuce: Perhaps the most radical of the Softail factory customs, the Deuce introduced a new “stretched” gas tank, sleek chrome fork sliders, all-new rear fender and the new Twin Cam 88B engine.
• 2008 Cross Bones: This exercise in pure vintage bobber styling featured a Springer front end framing a wide tire, laced wheels with black rims, a sprung solo seat, half-moon footboards and the introduction of flat Denim paint.

With the introduction of the original R nineT in 2013, BMW Motorrad presented more than just a classic-style roadster. From the beginning, it combined classic motorcycle design and modern technology with craftsmanship and comprehensive customization options. It led to a whole family of roadsters for the BMW Motorrad Heritage line.  

The guiding principle for the development of the new R 12 nineT was “The Spirit of nineT,” with the goal of following in the footsteps of the successful R nineT and carrying forward its look, timelessness and high customization qualities. While the new R 12 nineT as a classic roadster aims to make a stylish impression in urban environments as well as provide dynamic riding fun on winding roads, the new BMW R 12 comes under the motto “The Spirit of Easy” — perfectly embodying a classic cruiser for cool and relaxed riding.

Key Features of the New BMW R 12 nineT and R 12

• 1,170 cc air/oil-cooled, two-cylinder boxer engines
• R 12 nineT with 109 horsepower at 7,000 rpm and 85 pound-feet at 6,500 rpm

Design 

The new BMW R 12 nineT and R 12 are classic cruisers and roadsters that combine the torquey character of the boxer engine and the design language of traditional motorcycle eras with innovative technology and a modular concept that offers the rider maximum customization options. Reduction to the essentials and attention to detail were key priorities in the development of the design, resulting in a strong emotional appeal.

Customizing is more popular than ever. The trend started by the R nineT when it was launched in 2013 has given rise to an incredibly creative scene over the years. BMW Motorrad has catered to this demand with a whole model family centered around the R nineT, giving birth to the BMW Motorrad Heritage family. Ever since, the desire for customizing and personalization has been burning in countless motorcycle riders’ hearts. So, the question was not whether there will be a successor to the R nineT model family but how it can fulfill the desires and needs of customers even more captivatingly and authentically.

Accordingly, the new R 12 and R 12 nineT are built on a common, versatile chassis with a now one-piece trellis frame, an airbox positioned flat under the seat and an angled rear shock. This allows for different, interchangeable tank shapes, providing greater visual individuality. It also offers freedom in designing the seats and fly lines.

Classic Design and Optimal Ergonomics

On the BMW R 12 nineT, the aluminum tank with brushed and clear-coated side panels, the seat and the tail-hump create a rising, dynamic line. Edgar Heinrich, head of design BMW Motorrad, said, “The purist design language is dominated by the clear tank/seat/rear line, in the style of the traditional /5 or the legendary R 90 S of the ’70s. At first glance, the tank itself is a classic BMW boxer tank, with a typical bend in the lower edge and classic knee contact. The new R 12 nineT also features side covers in the area of the frame triangle for an authentic Roadster look — another reminiscence of BMW motorcycles of the 1970s.” The focus on essential design is supported by the compact and short tail section. The shorter fuel tank, which is 1.2 inches shorter and narrower in the rear, ensures significantly improved ergonomics and a more front-oriented seating position compared to its predecessor.

The R 12 nineT features a 31.3-inch seat height while the R 12 offers a lower, 29.7-inch seat height.

On the new BMW R 12, the steel tank, reminiscent of the so-called “Toaster Tanks” of the 1970s BMW /5 models, emphasizes the design language of a cruiser in a classic teardrop shape and forms a descending line in combination with the standard solo seat and the curved, low-mounted rear fender. The large 19-inch front wheel and the smaller 16-inch rear wheel complement this look. The classic cruiser design is also reflected in the more relaxed seating position with lower seat height and wider handlebars.

Strong Attention to Detail

The new Heritage models’ attention to detail is evident in numerous features, such as the intricately designed front fender bracket or the LED headlight — with a black-framed light element on the R 12 nineT. The instrument panel also seamlessly integrates into the overall style. On the R 12 nineT, it features two traditional round instruments, while the R 12 has a single round instrument. The LED turn signals on the upper fork bridge are equipped with tinted smoke lenses. The R 12 nineT also has smoked rear turn signal lenses, while the new R 12 features integrated functional turn signals.

On the U.S. R 12 nineT, the LED rear lights are elegantly and discreetly integrated into the turn signal lights, while European models feature a central taillight. The concept of a classic roadster and classic cruiser is also reflected in the exhaust system with two, rear stacked mufflers fitted with conical end pieces.

The BMW Motorrad design team’s keen attention to detail is evident in the side covers. Painted in matching body color, they prominently showcase the bright chrome-plated badges — with the R 12 nineT displaying a model designation, while the R 12 does not. On Option 719 vehicles, the badges are finished with the corresponding lettering. In addition, an aluminum frame badge with their model designation adorns the new R 12 nineT and R 12.

Three Attractive Paint Options 

The BMW R 12 nineT and R 12, are each available in three attractive color options:

• R 12 nineT
  • Standard Blackstorm Metallic
  • Optional San Remo Green Metallic
  • Optional Option 719 “Aluminum” in brushed Aluminum/Night Black
• R 12
  • Standard Blackstorm Metallic
  • Optional Aventurine Red Metallic
  • Optional Option 719 “Thorium” in Avus Silver Metallic

Drivetrain

Boxer Engine Offers Power and Torque for Dynamic Riding and Relaxed Cruising

For the past 100 years, the two-cylinder boxer engine and shaft drive have been synonymous with BMW motorcycles. In line with this legacy, the new BMW R 12 nineT and R 12 models, released in the “100 Years of BMW Motorrad” anniversary year, emphasize this distinctive powertrain configuration. Since the appearance of the first BMW motorcycle — the R 32 — in 1923, BMW Motorrad boxer engines have been known for their distinctive, rugged design; abundant torque; and unique sound. This is also true for the new BMW R 12 nineT and R 12, the boxer engine for which is based on the engine introduced in 2007 with the BMW HP 2 Sport and is considered an iconic representative among BMW boxer engines in terms of technology, performance, and torque delivery.

The air/oil-cooled boxer engine with a 101-millimeter bore, 73-millimeter stroke and 1,170cc capacity delivers 109 horsepower in the R 12 nineT at 7,000 rpm and the maximum torque of 85 pound-feet is reached at 6,500 rpm. In the R 12, 95 horsepower are available at 6,500 rpm and 81 pound-feet are generated at 6,000 rpm. The maximum engine speed is 8,500 rpm.

The valves, which are only radially arranged in the combustion chamber for this BMW boxer engine, are controlled by two overhead, chain-driven camshafts (DOHC) per cylinder. Lightweight cam followers are responsible for valve operation, and the valve clearance is adjusted using hemispherical shims. The cylinder head covers have been redesigned, drawing inspiration from the design of BMW’s legendary two-valve boxer engines. The proven six-speed transmission and the drive shaft transfer power to the rear wheel.

New Airbox, Now Integrated Under the Seat

As part of the complete redesign of the chassis, the new R 12 models also feature a new airbox. Unlike the previous R nineT series, the airbox no longer has an air intake duct located below the tank. It is now fully integrated under the seat.

New “Twin Pipe” Exhaust System Delivers the Unmistakable Boxer Sound

The left-hand mounted “Twin Pipe” exhaust system with two rear mufflers and reverse-cone cap design caters to both the desire for a classically designed roadster and a cruiser. Unlike the previous R nineT series, there is no longer a need for an exhaust flap.

The new manifold routing leads into a front muffler in front of the rear wheel, in which the catalytic converter is housed. On the new R 12 nineT, the manifolds and the front muffler are chrome-plated, and the rear muffler is electro-polished. The new R 12, on the other hand, features electro-polished manifolds and front muffler, while the rear muffler features a brushed finish.

The genuine BMW Motorrad accessories for the R 12 nineT and R 12 offer exhaust customization options to match the character of the two new R 12 models to personal preferences. For a particularly technical touch, a titanium sports muffler is available.

Riding Modes, Standard DTC and Engine Drag Torque Control

The new R 12 nineT features “Rain,” “Road” and “Dynamic” riding modes as standard, while the new R 12 has “Roll” and “Rock” riding modes so the rider can adapt the riding behavior to his or her personal preferences. Both new R 12 models are equipped with Dynamic Traction Control (DTC), which ensures a high level of driving safety when accelerating. In addition, the new R 12 Models equipped with Engine Drag Torque Control as standard.

While DTC offers increased riding safety when accelerating, especially on slippery road surfaces, the Engine Drag Control prevents the rear wheel from slipping as a result of abruptly releasing the throttle or downshifting, even under braking. Thanks to Engine Drag Torque Control, the new R 12 models detect this danger at an early stage.

Depending on the coefficient of friction between the tire and the road surface, the throttle valves are opened in milliseconds so that the drag torque is compensated for, and the rear tire remains in the optimal friction range. This results in further enhanced safety, especially on slippery roads.

In “Rain” mode on the R 12 nineT, the throttle response is gentle, and the traction control and torque control systems are more sensitive, ensuring increased safety on slippery roads.

In “Road” mode, the throttle response is balanced, and the DTC control and Engine Drag Torque Control systems are designed for dry and high-traction road conditions.

In “Dynamic mode,” you can fully experience the potential of the new R 12 nineT. The throttle response is very direct, allowing for more slip at the rear wheel, and the Dynamic Traction Control optimally regulates traction even during sporty cornering.

The “Roll” mode in the new R 12 ensures optimal throttle response, and the DTC and Engine Drag Control systems are adjusted for ideal performance on all types of roads.

The “Rock” riding mode allows the rider to explore the full dynamic potential of the new R 12. Throttle response is spontaneous and direct, and DTC allows a little more slip. As a special feature, the bike idles with a deliberately irregular rhythm in the “Rock” mode.

Optional Shift Assistant Pro

The optional Shift Assistant Pro allows for clutchless shifting in almost all load and speed ranges. It offers increased dynamic performance and comfort compared to manual shifting, with extremely short shift times that enable acceleration with minimal interruption of pulling power.

Chassis

New, 1-Piece Trellis Bridge Steel Frame With Bolt-on Rear Section 

The centerpiece of the new BMW R 12 models is the completely newly developed trellis steel frame. This frame differs from the previous R nineT series, which had a two-piece front main frame. As a result, the new frame eliminates the need for previous fastenings, reducing weight and giving the new R 12 models a cleaner and more classic appearance. The rear frame, also made of tubular steel, is bolted to the main frame.

The R 12 nineT’s suspension geometry is even more focused on excellent handling and enjoyable roadster fun on winding roads. It comes equipped with cast light-alloy wheels measuring 3.5-by-17 inches at the front and 5.5-by-17 inches at the rear (120/70 ZR 17 or 180/55 ZR 17 tires). The wheelbase is 59.5 inches, the caster is 4.4 inches, and the rake is 27.7 degrees.

To cater to the cruiser character for more relaxed riding, the new R 12 has an optimized suspension geometry design with increased rake, longer caster, and increased wheelbase. It also features cast light-alloy wheels, but 2.75-by-19 inches at the front and 4-by-16 inches at the rear (100/90-19 or 150/80-16 tires). The wheelbase is 59.8 inches, the caster is 5.2 inches, and the rake is 29.3 degrees.

Upside-Down Telescopic Forks and Paralever Rear Suspension With Revised Travel-Dependent Damping 

The new R 12 nineT and R 12 feature upside-down, telescopic, 45-millimeter front forks, fully adjustable on the R 12 nineT. Front suspension travel is 4.7 inches on the R 12 nineT and 3.5 inches on the R 12.

The rear suspension of the R 12 nineT features a Paralever swing arm combined with a directly linked shock, which is now angled diagonally compared to the previous R nineT series. The shock has road-dependent damping, adjustable spring preload and rebound damping. The improved road-dependent damping of the shock now includes a hydraulic bump stop, which prevents bottoming out during riding. The rear suspension travel is 4.7 inches on the R 12 nineT and 3.5 inches on the R 12.

BMW Motorrad ABS Pro for Safe Braking Even When Cornering 

The front brakes of the new R 12 nineT and R 12 feature twin 310-millimeter discs with two radially mounted, four-piston, monobloc brake calipers. A single 265-millimeter disc brake with a two-piston floating caliper is used on the rear wheel.

The new R 12 models are equipped with BMW Motorrad ABS Pro (part-integral) as standard. ABS Pro offers more safety when braking in turns by enabling ABS-assisted braking when leaning. ABS Pro prevents the wheels from locking even when the brakes are applied quickly. The benefits are increased braking and riding stability combined with the best possible deceleration, even when cornering. Depending on the selected riding mode, ABS Pro and the Engine Drag Torque Control offer adapted control characteristics for optimum braking maneuvers.

Optional Hill Start Assist Pro 

The optional Hill Start Assist (HSA) Pro makes it easier to hold and start on inclines. The holding pressure in the brake system depends on the gradient, which is determined by a lean angle sensor. This information allows for improved comfort during starting from a stop in all conditions. Combined with control electronics, HSA Pro offers greater safety and enhanced convenience.

With Hill Start Control (HSC) Pro, the brake is automatically released when starting from a stop or forcefully operating the hand brake lever. HSC Pro also includes the function Auto HSC. The settings menu allows this additional function to be individualized in such a way that the parking brake is automatically activated on a gradient (greater than plus-or-minus 3%) when the hand or foot brake lever has been pressed, shortly after the motorcycle comes to a standstill.

Electronics

New Classic Round Instruments, USB-C and 12-Volt Socket, and Available Digital Display 

The new R 12 nineT comes equipped with two analog round instruments for speed and rpm, a USB-C port on the left side and a 12-volt socket on the right side for the onboard network. The round instruments continue to support customization by communicating via a LIN-Bus and separating the control and display units. The standard instrumentation for the new R 12 is limited to the speedometer, but the rev counter can be retrofitted from the list of available genuine BMW Motorcycle accessories.

The new round instruments only resemble those of the previous R nineT series at first glance. They have increased in diameter by 0.2 inches, resulting in even better readability, and the dials for the speedometer and rev counter have been redesigned. Another new feature is the scaling of the rev counter, whose digits are now based on a multiplication factor of 100.

The control lights and a digital display are integrated into the dial of the speedometer. On the R 12 nineT, it functions as a menu scroll, while on the R 12, it still displays the engaged gear and the selected riding mode.

Furthermore, the R 12 nineT has an additional digital display in the rev counter. In addition to showing the selected gear and the riding mode, it also offers a configurable additional display.

With the Digital Display option, the round instruments on the new R 12 nineT and R 12 are replaced by a 3.5-inch micro TFT display. The high resolution of the micro-TFT display ensures excellent readability even in difficult lighting conditions and brings the instrument display of the new R 12 models into the digital age. As a highlight, the menu includes the Pure Ride mode, which displays only the most necessary information (speed, riding mode, selected gear) to emphasize the purist riding experience.

Powerful Standard LED Lighting With Optional Adaptive Headlight Pro

The new R 12 nineT and the R 12 feature full LED lighting as standard. The optional adaptive Headlight Pro light system offers even more safety at night. The headlamp segments are each supplemented by adaptive cornering light elements. This allows for better illumination of the road in curves, ensuring a safer nighttime ride.

U.S. models feature rear/brake lights, which are integrated into the rear turn signals.

Optional Connected Ride Control

The optional Connected Ride Control equips the two R 12 models with a Bluetooth interface for connecting a smartphone and using the BMW Motorrad Connected app. This allows for the display of vehicle data, riding dynamics data, weather information at the current location and map navigation. The familiar BMW Motorrad Multi-Controller on the left handlebar can be used to conveniently control the app without removing hands from the handlebar. The MotoMount by SP Connect and the Universal Phone Clamp ensure quick, secure and vibration-isolated mounting of the smartphone on the handlebar.

Standard Keyless Ride

The standard Keyless Ride system replaces the conventional ignition lock on the new R 12 models. The use of a traditional key is now only necessary for the steering lock and fuel tank cap. The ignition and anti-theft alarm system, which is available as a dealer-installed accessory, are controlled by means of a transponder integrated in the vehicle key, which transmits a radio signal with a vehicle-specific frequency. The key can therefore remain in the rider’s jacket, for example. Readiness to ride is established by pressing the ON button on the right handlebar switch.

Intelligent Emergency Call

Ensuring the fastest possible assistance in the event of an accident or in situations of emergency and danger can save people’s lives. For this reason, BMW Motorrad has developed an eCall system — “Intelligent Emergency Call” — which aims to get help to the scene of the incident as quickly as possible. For the new R 12 models, this system is included as a standard feature in the market-dependent equipment program.
