Although this year's Auto China was postponed, many overseas international auto shows were cancelled directly, so the scale of Auto China is still optimistic, showing many annual heavyweight products. In addition to a large number of new models, a very cool flagship motorcycle appeared on the BMW booth. This new car is a brand-new BMW r 18. If compared by status, this motorcycle can be said to be the 7th Series in the field of BMW cars, with a price of 285,000 in China market and a limited sales of 5,000 units.
From the aspect of design, the style of this motorcycle is a bit like Harley cruise locomotive, but this design is not Harley's patent. As early as World War II, BMW had already made such a similar product. The front of the car adopts round retro headlights, and two oversized ventilated brake discs on the front wheel ensure the braking ability. You can see double exhaust pipes like artworks on the side of the car body, and BMW's logo is hung on the huge fuel tank. Unfortunately, this car only provides one original seat.
A seemingly simple motorcycle can sell for more than 280,000 yuan, mainly because this BMW r 18 is equipped with a very powerful opposed engine, namely horizontally opposed engine. The displacement of this engine reaches 1802CC, that is, the displacement level of 1.8 liter, which is very rare in the motorcycle field and even larger than most family cars. This huge engine occupies a large part of the car body, and there are symmetrical cooling modules on both sides. The ultimate output is as high as 67 kW and the peak torque can reach 158 Nm, which is completely the level of a car. Theoretically, the speed of this model can reach180 km/h.
In addition to the huge engine, the BMW r 18 cruise motorcycle also provides a brand-new 6-speed gearbox. Coupled with automatic stability control system and engine traction control system, the safety of the whole vehicle will be much higher than that of ordinary motorcycles. Another small surprise is that this motorcycle supports reversing function, otherwise it will be inconvenient to turn around because of too much weight, especially for female riders. If there is no reverse function, I am afraid I will ask for help at any time.
After reading this motorcycle, many fans may have been fascinated, but looking back at the pricing of 285 thousand, I am still a little at a loss. After all, 285 thousand can buy a nice luxury car, so if you want to make up your mind to buy this BMW motorcycle, it is definitely true love powder. It is said that motorcycles carry souls, but you will find a lot of inconvenience after buying them. Some cities prohibit motorcycles from entering the city, and motorcycles are very comfortable in windy and rainy weather.
