BMW F 900 R Review
Detailed Review by Maxabout Team
Overview
The BMW F900R is a middle-weight naked street bike that replaces the F800R in the German manufacturer's lineup. The motorcycle is a significantly improved product over its predecessor in terms of styling, displacement, performance, electronics, and hardware. The majority of two-wheeler manufacturers have resumed operations in India while adhering to government safety regulations. BMW Motorrad is expected to follow suit in the near future. The F 900 R, a new bike in the roadster range, is the German brand's first BS6-compliant offering.
BMW F900R Design and Style
The F900R, like every other aspect, is vastly different from the F800R in terms of cosmetics. It has a low-slung compact LED headlamp with a tiny visor. Geometric extensions join the chiselled fuel tank, which also serves as a radiator cowl. A single-piece seat sits on the stubby tail section, along with a flat handlebar and slightly rear-set footpegs, to provide comfortable yet marginally aggressive ergonomics.
BMW F900R Engine and Gearbox
The street bike is powered by an 895cc parallel-twin engine with a constant-mesh 6-speed gearbox integrated into the crankcase, producing approximately 105 HP at 8,500 rpm and 92 Nm at 6,500 rpm. The power is delivered in two modes: rain and road, with optional Dynamic and Dynamic Pro modes available at an additional cost. It only has ASC (automatic stability control) as a standard feature, which prevents excessive wheel spin caused by the hard acceleration in tricky situations.
BMW F900R Suspension, Brakes and Tyres
The suspensions on the new BMW F900R are upside-down Telescopic fork 43mm with a 120/70 ZR17 front tyre and cast aluminium dual swing arm & central spring strut & spring preload hydraulically adjustable rebound damping adjustable with a rear tyre. It has a Bridge-type frame or a steel shell construction frame, as well as 17-inch Cast Aluminium Wheels. Front braking is handled by twin 320mm disc brakes with four-piston floating callipers and rear braking is handled by a single 265mm disc brake with a single-piston floating calliper paired with dual-channel ABS.
Instrument Console of BMW F900R
Customers can also select the Ride Modes Pro electronics package, which includes ABS Pro, Dynamic Traction Control (DTC), and EBC (Engine Braking Control). Other standard features include a 6.5-inch full-colour TFT display with Bluetooth connectivity, full-LED lighting, a 12V socket, and adjustable brake and clutch levers.
Key Features of BMW F900R
2024 F900R features include LED tail light and turn indicators, and a full LED headlight with cornering lights (optional). It has two standard ride modes in terms of electronics (Road, Rain) and ASC Automatic Stability Control. You could choose an optional Pro package that includes ABS Pro, Dynamic Brake Control (DBC), Dynamic Traction Control (DTC), Engine Braking Control (EBC), keyless ignition, and the new engine drag torque control (MSR) and an electronically adjustable mono-shock. The bike also has adjustable brake and clutch levers as well as a 6.5-inch full-colour TFT screen.
Top Speed and Mileage of BMW F900R
2024 BMW F900R has a top speed of 200 km/h and a WMTC fuel consumption per 100 km of 4.2 L, resulting in mileage of 28.3 km/l. The BMW F 900 R accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in about 3.7 seconds.
BMW F900R Colour Options
BMW offers the new F900R in two colour options namely, Hockenheim Silver Metallic/Racing Red and Black Storm Metallic.
BMW F900R Price
As of now, the BMW F900R is available at a starting price of 10.80 lakh (ex-showroom) for the standard version.
BMW F900R Competitors
Top competitors for the new BMW F900R are Benelli TRK 502, BMW F 900 XR, BMW R NineT Scrambler, Ducati Scrambler Desert Sled, Kawasaki Ninja 1000, Kawasaki Versys, Kawasaki Z650 RS, Triumph Speed Twin, and Triumph Bonneville Bobber.
Conclusion
2024 F900R may appear to be the underdog on paper, being more expensive, less powerful, and heavier than anything else in the segment, but the reality is quite different from the saddle. The almost scientific approach to performance ensures that the F900R not only feels faster but is also as fast as anything else in the segment. The same can be said for the rider's triangle and electronics: no excess, just what you need and nothing more. The F900R, in our opinion, is the mature bet in the segment.
