2024 BMW R 18 Roctane Black storm metallic
TOURING WITH A COOLNESS FACTORThe R 18 Roctane is a synonym for pure nonchalance. Appearance: Bagger. Comfort: touring motorcycle. Personality: custom factory hot rod. It is driven by the powerful big boxer engine. Ride it and every country road turns into Route 66. Its style is unconventional: black and matt – that’s what joy can look like. At least for those who bring #SoulFuel to life. Bagger outline, dragster seat and mini ape-hanger demonstrate that this is not a bog-standard bike. Want even more rock 'n' roll? The bike ready for customising. All you need to do is own it!
More than a bike – your statementThe iconic front with round LED headlight and 21-inch cast aluminium wheel leads the way towards the horizon. You are casually gripping the mini ape-hanger and resting your feet on the standard footboards, while the dragster seat gives you perfect support on long tours. The elongated bagger outline flows straight to the stylish rear end featuring hard-shell cases. This bike is an eye-catcher. Unmistakable: the unique boxer sound from the striking, dark chrome rear silencer.
Features may include:
- Powerful big boxer engine
With a displacement of 1,802 cc and a peak torque of 158 Nm, our largest boxer engine also lends the R 18 Roctane this unique riding experience and a respectable thrust when you need it.
- Impressive 21-inch front wheel
Emphasises the casual appearance of the R 18 Roctane: the 21-inch front wheel. The high-quality, cast aluminium wheel gives this bike its true size.
With these handlebars you are holding liberty in your hands. The mini ape-hanger is perfect for touring, enabling a front-wheel-oriented seating position. Feels casual – looks cool.
- Black, straight rear silencer
The impressive boxer sound originates from the equally impressive exhaust system in dark chrome. Its straight shape underscores the horizontal, elongated design line of the R 18 Roctane.
The full LED headlight has been integrated into a high-quality metal housing. Daytime running lights, cornering light as well as optimised dipped beam and high-beam headlights guarantee safety.
- Comfortable dragster seat
The comfortable seat in a dragster look provides support when accelerating. It offers a high level of seating comfort and supports an upright seating position. You can comfortably rest your feet on the footboards.
- Hard-shell cases in bagger look
Typically bagger: side cases. Water-resistant hard-shell cases with black hinges offer space for up to 10 kg of luggage. Their top-loader design makes them easy to open.
- Traditional round dial-type speedometer
The analogue, traditionally shaped round dial with large, easy-to-read digits has been integrated into the headlight.
