The 2024 BMW R 12 nineT features a newly developed trellis steel frame, which is lighter and cleaner in design compared to its predecessor. This frame, along with a bolt-on subframe, enhances the bikes stability and classic appearance. The bike also boasts a refreshed chassis with a longer wheelbase and a more relaxed steering geometry. I think this update will appeal to riders looking for a blend of classic style and modern performance.

BMW Motorrad has introduced the 2024 BMW R 12 nineT and R 12, with the R 12 nineT retaining its 1170cc air-cooled boxer twin engine, producing 109 hp and 85 lb-ft of torque. This engine is now compliant with Euro 5 emissions standards and offers improved torque output. The bike also comes with advanced features like cornering ABS, riding modes, and engine drag torque control. I believe these updates make the R 12 nineT a compelling choice for performance-oriented riders.

The 2024 BMW R 12 nineT has been praised for its comfortable seating and handling. Despite its racy look, the seat is surprisingly comfortable for full-day rides. The bikes chassis provides a stable and predictable ride, making it suitable for both spirited and controlled riding. The front suspension features a 45mm upside-down fork, and the rear shock is now mounted at an angle. I think this balance of comfort and performance is a significant selling point.

BMW has unveiled the R 12 and R 12 nineT, with the R 12 nineT aimed at performance-oriented customers. The R 12, on the other hand, is positioned as a sporty cruiser with a more relaxed power output of 95 hp and 110 Nm of torque. This detuning makes the R 12 A2 compliant, which could attract younger riders in Europe. I believe this strategy will help BMW tap into different segments of the market.

On the other hand, the On-Road Price is the actual cost you pay to the dealership to make the vehicle legal to run on the roads. It includes Ex-Showroom Price in your city + RTO Charges (Vehicle Registration) + One Time Road Tax + Insurance Charges. The On-Road Price also includes some optional things like if you opt for Genuine Accessories and Extended Warranty while buying a vehicle. Please note that the On-Road Price varies a lot across different states in India due to different percentage for the State Registration Charges. |
