BMW R18 Classic
The BMW R 18 Classic is a classic cruiser made in the brutal American style of the 50s of the last century with shades of design of German motorcycles of the 30s. This model was based on the BMW R5. The heart of the bike was a classic boxer equipped with an air-oil cooling system. In addition to ample traction, the motor sounds nice, emphasizing the force that is released when the throttle is moved.
This model uses a two-cylinder power unit with a volume of 1.8 liters. The gas distribution mechanism is equipped with valve rod pushers. Despite the impressive volume, the boxer produces 91 horsepower, but even a professional sports bike can envy the torque. Between 2000 and 4000 rpm, a whopping 150 Nm is available to the driver. There is a minimum of electronics in this motorcycle, thanks to which the model is not only visually, but also technically close to the classics.
