Introducing the 2023 BMW R nineT Urban G/S…

AUTHENTIC, STRIKING, BALANCED

As the crow flies? No, the detour is the destination. And when it comes to gravel, the R nineT Urban G/S is also in its element. Its design is reminiscent of the first G/S models, the legendary BMW R 80 G/S. And with it, the idea that simply anything is possible. The geometry with the upright, relaxed seating position, the well-balanced handling and the boxer with its unmistakable sound, challenge you to rewrite history with the R nineT Urban G/S – your history. Personal, individual and truly #Soulfuel.

The design of the R nineT Urban G/S makes you immediately think of the first G/S models. At that time they were absolute pioneers in terms of technology and design. And even today the R nineT Urban G/S boasts impressive technical data and progressive equipment.

“The bike that brings back memories. Jump on and off you ride, it really is better to travel than to arrive. ” – Ulli Sengenberger
