R12 Nine T

LET THE STREET BE YOUR STAGE

Enter the R 12 nineT. With this sensational roadster, you set the scene with aplomb. Character: extrovert. Design: expressive. One after the other, hardly a screw was left in its place during development. With the revolutionised frame concept, this bike is eminently customisation-ready. So feel free to go the extra mile – do your own thing. The R 12 nineT invites you to make your own personal statement on the road. Celebrate #Soulfuel in your very own way.

Master of style

Wherever it goes, the R 12 nineT immediately takes centre stage. The golden upside-down fork, numerous aluminium parts, the two round instruments – every detail makes for an unforgettable presentation.

Doesn't follow trends. Sets them.

The R 12 nineT does not follow role models. It is a style icon in its own right. Instantly recognisable from afar thanks to its authentic look with an unmistakable roadster "flyline". Up close, you recognise iconic details such as the round instruments, the chrome-plated manifold, the aluminium tank and the expressive, tubeless bicolour wheels. Hop on and make the road your stage. Your ride is accompanied by the unmistakable sound from the twin tailpipe exhaust system.

Do your own thing

Maximum design freedom, as standard. The backbone designed for customising with a classic tubular spaceframe, a flat suspension strut and a completely revised engine periphery provides the canvas for your own ideas. The modular concept is made for individualists like you. Bring your ideas to the road.

All beginnings are easy – the A2 variant of the R 12 nineT

The R 12 nineT is also available in an A2-compliant variant with 35 kW (48 hp). So you can have your bike even when you're riding with an A2 driving licence. Now you can enjoy the intuitive handling of the R 12 nineT from the beginning of your riding journey. More information is available here.

Space for your experiences

Relaxed yet dynamic on the move. This is ensured by the characteristic roadster ergonomics and equipment, such as ABS Pro and DTC. The classic tank shape and compact proportions result in an agile riding position, while the updated handlebar and footrest position contribute to the dynamic riding ergonomics. Enjoy your ride with a passenger on the partitioned bench seat. And with the optional single seater, you can ride solo in comfort.

Comfort without compromise

Got high standards? This roadster has you covered. With Keyless Ride, you can simply hop on and start riding. With the optional ConnectedRide Control, you can plug your smartphone into the mobile phone holder, pair it with your bike and easily find any route. The optional comfort package makes riding even more enjoyable, with features such as shift assistant Pro and grip heating.
