BMW Motorrad continues to expand its presence in the heavyweight cruiser segment with the addition of its boxer twin-powered R 18 Classic ($24,015 as tested). This iteration of the R 18 adds touring-friendly accommodations, including a fixed oversize windscreen, and double-buckle saddlebags that allow for added practicality.

SportsTranscript
00:00 Hey folks good morning and welcome to this episode of Motorcyclist MC Commute.
00:05 Today we're gonna be riding BMW's 2021 R18 Classic. This is a more touring
00:13 friendly variation of BMW Motorrad's ultra powerful, ultra big, ultra heavy
00:21 weight R18 Cruiser. Let's swing a leg over this bad boy and see what it's like
00:26 to ride. Alright folks there it is BMW's 2021 R18 Classic heavyweight boxer twin
00:36 powered cruiser. Now this particular R18 Classic is part of the Motorrad
00:43 division's four bike R18 heavyweight cruiser lineup. We had the R18 which we
00:50 test rode last season. We have the R18 Classic which goes up against motorcycles
00:58 like the Bar and Shield Brands Heritage Special and the Indian Super Chief
01:05 which we also test rode earlier this year. Then we have the R18B which is a
01:13 heavyweight bagger style motorcycle. We haven't reviewed that vehicle yet but we
01:18 will soon. And then we have the R18 Transcontinental which is a heavyweight
01:24 full dresser luxury touring rig which we have reviewed a few months ago. Make sure
01:31 to review our content here on this channel and MotorcyclistOnline.com. I
01:36 really like this motorcycle. Every time I pull up to a fuel station to gas up the
01:42 4.2 gallon fuel tank it's really interesting how even non
01:47 motorcyclists will go up to me and be like "Wow that motorcycle it looks old
01:52 but it's new!" BMW Motorrad designers in Germany just nailed it on the
01:58 styling. The styling of this bike is just awesome.
02:00 Obviously the 1802 CC boxer twin is really the showcase of this vehicle. Just
02:08 look at its mechanical and design brilliance. It just looks so pretty. No
02:14 wires hanging out, no goofy things, just clean mechanical beauty. A very nice
02:21 looking engine. We have the reverse lever here. That's right this 805 pound
02:29 bike has electronic reverse and you're gonna need it because this bike is heavy.
02:35 Now compared to the R18 this vehicle is equipped with a 16-inch front wheel
02:43 instead of a 19-inch. I like this 16-inch wheel. Usually I'm not a small diameter
02:49 wheel kind of guy but for this motorcycle it works very well. It just
02:54 makes for a much more agile and playful if you can even call a heavyweight
02:59 cruiser that attitude. This bike also has a gargantuan windscreen. I love this
03:07 windscreen. It does a great job of blocking the elements. My only complaint
03:12 is I wish it had some level of adjustment. Instead it's fixed. We also
03:17 have these nice saddlebags here that have these nice leather buckles with
03:23 these plastic snaps that makes it easy to take put your stuff in and out of the
03:29 vehicle. These plastic snaps snap out so you can carry your goodies when you are
03:35 away from the bike. This is the key. I know we're getting a little bit ahead of
03:39 ourselves but this is the key. Look the key resembles the front of the
03:45 engine. How cool is that? BMW Motorrad definitely paid attention to the details
03:52 on this bike. I love the bright LED lighting. I love those LED fog lights
03:58 that just really do a great job of lighting up the road after dark. Well
04:04 folks enough blabbing about this vehicle from BMW. Let's swing a leg over this
04:10 thing and see what it's like to ride. Alright folks here we go aboard BMW
04:18 Motorrad's 2021 R18 Classic. We showed you the electronic key fob which is
04:26 coincidentally styled like the fuel tank on the 1936 R5 which this motorcycle is
04:35 loosely based off stylistically. It also matches the front of the engine which we
04:40 showed. Fire up the starter button listen to that 110 cubic inch engine roar. I
04:49 love when you twist the throttle the engine rotates on its longitudinal axis
04:55 slightly. Good character kind of nice subtle detail that lets this heavyweight
05:05 cruiser stand apart in the segment. Sitting on this motorcycle this bike
05:13 benefits from a very low seat. The seats nice and low. The dish of the saddle it
05:21 really supports my rear end well. It almost feels like I'm in a just a it's
05:28 like someone's cupping my butt almost. I like the bend of this handlebar. This
05:36 handlebar is awesome. It's really wide. It's got a good amount of rearward sweep
05:43 which is quite nice for this type of heavyweight cruiser application. Nice
05:49 wide handlebar. You can use a Torx bit to loosen these four clamp fasteners and
05:59 actually rotate the bar forward or aft. If you are a taller guy I think rotating
06:06 this bar forward would be a good modification for you. I wouldn't really
06:11 want to go I really wouldn't want to move the handlebar any far more rearward.
06:16 It would just basically feel like these bars are in my lap and I don't like that
06:20 riding sensation. This vehicle has mid style controls because of the position
06:31 of the of this engines cylinders in the flat position one piston there one
06:39 piston there you cannot have forward controls on this vehicle because the
06:44 cylinders are in the way. So not the best for super cruising but for all intensive
06:58 purposes it isn't so bad. Right now we are operating this vehicle in stop and
07:05 go style traffic. This is literally the worst condition for operating this
07:11 vehicle just because those cylinders they they they generate a lot of heat
07:18 when you're going slow in traffic. All the engine heat literally radiates onto
07:26 your feet and it gets uncomfortable quick but that's only if you are in
07:32 stop-and-go traffic. Soon as you get some airflow against those cylinders that
07:40 discomfort just evaporates but to be fair on a really hot day you're still
07:46 gonna feel a little bit of heat on your feet. That's really my only that's really
07:52 my only real big gripe on this vehicle is that.
07:58 Now riding this motorcycle I just love this 1802 cc boxer twin. BMW has been
08:10 crafting this boxer twin engine configuration in its German factory for
08:15 98 years. 98 year history making this engine. I love when manufacturers or any
08:24 company for that matter takes pride in its history and takes pride in making a
08:32 product whatever that product is and just fine-tuning it and over and over
08:38 and over and over and over and through the decades and decades and decades and
08:42 these boxer twins are just so awesome because not only do they look and sound
08:47 totally cool but they have just a whopping amount of torque. This R18
08:53 classic puts out over a hundred pound-feet of torque at the business end
08:58 of the Bridgestone H50 cruiser tire. Over a hundred pound-feet of torque. That's as
09:06 much torque as Honda's Goldwing six-cylinder. It's unbelievable how much
09:12 torque this engine is capable of in an air oil-cooled format.
09:22 Six-speed gearbox puts power back to the tire. This motorcycle features a
09:31 beautiful mechanical driveshaft so there's like an automobile style
09:37 driveshaft hanging off the right side of the swing arm and that transfers engine
09:44 power through the transmission and back to the rear wheel. The shaft drive, the
09:50 mechanical shaft drive, is virtually maintenance-free and it's made of metal
09:55 so theoretically it's never gonna fail. The only serviceable item is that
10:01 rear differential inside the wheel. You're supposed to change the fluid
10:06 inside that every 24,000 miles. So besides that, the
10:13 the powertrain is virtually maintenance-free. Really awesome. I love
10:20 the way the transmission feels. It's got a nice solid shift between gears.
10:27 I like that this particular R18 Classic fitted with a heel shifter so you can
10:35 just press down on the heel shifter and the motorcycle will upshift into the
10:39 next gear. I love the extreme synchronization between the control
10:46 surfaces of this vehicle. Whether it's the ride-by-wire throttle which is just
10:52 has magnificent calibration and response to the hydraulically actuated clutch.
10:59 This clutch is really responsive. The throttle clutch gear shifter, you can
11:05 have extreme control on this motorcycle. I'm not used to operating a heavyweight
11:11 cruiser that has this much synchronization between controls. You can
11:16 really overlap the controls well on this bike and it has a lot of feel. I'm a
11:23 motorcycle rider who literally lives and dies by feel. If I want to have a good
11:28 experience my motorcycle has to have a ton of feel and this motorcycle has a
11:32 ton of feel for a cruiser. So good job Motorrad department.
11:39 Right now we are riding in the rain power setting. That is the soft softest
11:46 throttle response. The softest engine map. You can also choose from roll which is a
11:53 little bit firmer and then rock is the most aggressive. I like rock overall.
11:58 There's not a huge difference between each of these settings but rock just
12:04 gives the engine a little bit more of a aggressive feel but not overly
12:09 aggressive like it's gonna get away from you but it just makes it a little bit
12:12 more fun to ride. I just love the power pulses that this bike is capable of.
12:19 You got to remember this engine benefits from a bore measurement that's over four
12:24 inches. It's got coffee can size, pistons going back and forth, slamming back and
12:30 forth and just making a ton of power. I just love just the whole dynamic of
12:36 this engine. Not only sounds cool, the engine vibration is tuned very well. You
12:44 definitely feel engine vibration through the controls but it is it's
12:50 manufactured in such a way that complements the ride. Other heavyweight
12:57 cruiser manufacturers their engines vibrate too but they vibrate in a way
13:02 that's just almost disorganized. It's just like there's a vibration there just
13:07 because there is. Where this powertrain, the vibration feels like it's tuned for
13:15 the actual riding experience. The Tuning Fork brand is very good at doing that
13:23 same thing where they're literally tuning the power character and the
13:29 vibration character of their engine to the application.
13:33 I really like just the power pulses of this engine and the way it vibrates. It
13:37 just feels right to me. It feels really good.
13:41 This motorcycle with a full 4.2 gallons of fuel weighs 805 pounds. This motorcycle
13:55 is definitely not a featherweight. You definitely feel its weight when you're
13:59 lifting it up off the side stand. But in motion I'm really impressed with how
14:07 maneuverable this bike is. Now the R18 comes with a 19-inch front wheel. This R18
14:14 Classic is fitted with 16-inch wheels front and rear. I'm not normally a
14:20 16-inch wheel kind of guy, but on this bike I like it a lot because it just
14:26 makes for a motorcycle that's exceptionally agile. I can't believe how
14:31 easy this motorcycle is to steer and put where I want on the road. Yet even
14:39 with that smaller diameter wheel set, because the tires have such a big
14:44 sidewall, it still goes over bumps reasonably well. Now aside from the
14:52 configuration of the engine and stop-and-go traffic and the heat that
14:56 that engine puts out on you, the other weak link, if any, on this bike is just
15:01 the limited suspension travel. These vehicles are designed to look like
15:06 bobber-style motorcycles, which traditionally are devoid of rear
15:11 suspension travel. This bike has 3.5 inches of suspension travel, which
15:18 although I love the stance of this bike and the way it sits and looks, the three
15:23 and a half inches of suspension travel definitely will beat you up faster than
15:30 if it had full length suspension. Still, despite its more limited rear
15:37 suspension travel, the suspension calibration on this bike is actually
15:41 good. The compression and rebound damping, it follows the attitude of the road well
15:49 and you can ride this bike surprisingly hard. The crazy thing though is the
15:56 limited ground clearance. This bike has no ground clearance. This bike, it's
16:00 almost like they took the old Harley-Davidson Heritage Classic, which
16:06 before the Softail redesign, that bike was useless. It had no ground clearance.
16:11 It's almost like they baseline that bike because the new Softail-based Heritage
16:17 Classic that they unveiled for the 2018 model year, that bike actually has some
16:22 ground clearance now, more than this one, which this bike directly
16:27 competes against. So a little bit odd, but even though this bike doesn't have the
16:32 most ground clearance, I'm really amazed at how stable this chassis is. As long as
16:40 you keep this bike more or less straight up or down, you can ride this bike
16:45 insanely hard. This bike is capable of going over 150 miles per hour, and at
16:54 150 miles per hour, it's just absurd how stable it is, how smooth and steadfast
17:01 the chassis is. You add cruise control, which is part of the Select package, and
17:09 that makes things even better. I love BMW cruise control. Super easy to
17:16 use. Turn it off by just applying the brakes or activating the clutch lever.
17:24 These power pulses of this engine are just mesmerizing. Such a fun cruiser bike
17:31 to ride.
17:34 And away we go, guys. I love how positive feeling that clutch lever is. You
17:45 really have good feel between clutch release and throttle application. It just
17:51 makes this motorcycle really easy to launch. Now back to the limited ground
17:58 clearance. That is certainly an Achilles heel on this R18 Classic, but the high
18:03 level of stability is totally awesome. As long as you keep this bike
18:10 straight up and down, you can ride it extremely hard. I love that this bike
18:16 comes outfitted with dual disc front brakes. All heavyweight cruiser
18:21 motorcycles made in the world today should have double disc brakes. If your
18:26 heavyweight cruiser doesn't have double disc brakes, you are just failing
18:30 miserably. And that extra brake hardware gives this bike more effective stopping
18:39 capability. Earlier in the week when I was riding this bike, a car pulled out in
18:47 front of me in an aggressive way and I had to slam on the brakes. And I was
18:52 really happy that I had dual disc front brakes. It allowed me to slow the bike
18:57 down more effectively. I also like that this bike has matching calipers and
19:09 rotors on all sides. So the rear brake is very powerful too. You have to remember
19:17 you're trying to slow down an 805 motorcycle. You need to have heavy-duty
19:22 braking components. And this bike, while they're not street bike, high-performance
19:29 street bike brakes, they're definitely good for a cruiser. I also like that the
19:34 brake sensation feeling is... this kind of sounds silly, but the brake sensation
19:40 feeling is a little bit dull. Which, that sounds bad, but with these cruiser v-twin
19:47 bikes, just they've always been a little bit dull. That's just how they are. You
19:52 have to tug on the lever a little bit to get these bikes slowed down. And BMW
19:59 engineered some of that into this bike. Yet, you really start pulling back on
20:05 that lever, on that front brake lever, and power ramps up quickly. So you get the
20:11 best of both worlds. You get really soft, borderline dull feeling initial bite, but
20:17 the more you depress that lever, the more the stopping power, which is what it
20:23 should be.
20:27 This bike is a little bit big, so getting into this competition, traffic's always a
20:32 little bit of a bear. There's a Harley-Davidson guy. We just smoked him.
20:38 I don't even know what he was on. I think a breakout was that bike.
20:43 Now, this nice instrument gauge keeps tabs on the vehicle settings. We have a
20:54 nice analog speedometer. I love that this motorcycle goes over 150 miles per hour
21:00 stably. That is an awesome feature for me.
21:05 This bike includes trip meters, so you can keep a track on your mileage, average speed.
21:13 We've been averaging 34 miles per gallon on this bike, but to be fair, we've been
21:20 riding it at relatively high speeds. So 34 miles per gallon at a relatively high
21:27 average speed. I guess it's not that high because our average speed, just what we
21:32 listed before, was 43. And a 4.2 gallon fuel tank is what feeds this motorcycle. I love
21:42 that this bike runs on 87 octane fuel.
21:49 Bikes like this, relatively low-performance bikes like these kind
21:54 of cruisers, they should run on 87 octane. The only kind of bikes that should be
21:58 running on premium octane are motocross bikes and sport bikes with high
22:05 compression ratios. Everything else should be running just fine on 87 octane.
22:09 And I like that this bike runs perfectly on that lower specification fuel. We rode
22:17 this motorcycle after dark. I love the LED headlamps on this bike. BMW always
22:24 kills it with this lighting, and this R18 Classic is no different. The LED headlight
22:30 throws off a nice deep swath of light. These fog light style lights that you
22:37 activate with the switch here, they're just awesome. They allow for an even
22:42 wider spread of light. And this motorcycle also benefits from adaptive
22:51 cornering head beams, part of the premium package on this motorcycle. It's about a
22:56 $1,500 option. And that allows the motorcycle, the headlight, to light up the
23:03 outer edge of the headlight going through corners. So if you're going
23:07 through a left corner, the left outer edge lights up, brightening the corner.
23:12 If you go to the right, vice versa. It's really nice technology. My only gripe is
23:17 I wish its cornering headlights were brighter. I guess engineers didn't
23:24 anticipate a heavyweight cruiser rider to ride this motorcycle that quickly in
23:29 corners, but I just like riding bikes fast all the time, day or night, doesn't
23:33 matter what they are. And the cornering headlight function on this bike could be
23:39 brighter, which is kind of insane because this bike actually has pretty limited
23:44 cornering clearance. But even with this cornering clearance, the
23:49 cornering headlamp functionality is still not bright enough. But as long as you're
23:54 going in a straight line, this thing throws off some lumens. I really like
24:00 that. I also really like that the LED tail lights and the brake light are all
24:06 one piece. There's no separate brake light. The brake light is just integrated
24:11 right in the tail lights, just like BMW is doing with all of its other
24:14 motorcycles. It's super awesome, looks super cool.
24:19 Let's let her eat. Yes! This BMW vehicle is outfitted with
24:29 stability control. It's almost like a form of traction control. It's always on
24:36 you can manually disable it by pushing this button on the left switch gear if
24:41 you want to do burnouts and that kind of thing.
24:59 This motorcycle is also equipped with Always-on ABS. Always-on ABS also has a
25:08 form of linked brakes where when you actuate the front brake and the rear
25:13 brake, they will actuate independently unless the vehicle,
25:20 unless the software in the vehicle tells that the chassis is unbalanced, then it
25:25 will automatically route brake pressure to the opposing brake system just to
25:33 help the BMW R18 Classic Rider have more control. The system works seamlessly and
25:41 you can't ever really feel an effect. But to be fair, when you're riding these big
25:47 heavyweight cruisers, you really got to ride them smooth if you want to go fast on
25:51 them. You can't do the ham-fisted control inputs that you could on a more sporty
25:58 vehicle just because the chassis just not, it's not, you can't handle that kind
26:04 of control input. Maintenance on this vehicle, we talked about the
26:12 final drive and how you have to change the oil inside that rear hub every 24,000
26:18 miles. This bike also requires engine oil change, changes every 6,000 miles.
26:26 Every 6,000 miles, you drop the engine oil. BMW Motorrad also says you need to inspect
26:33 the valve clearances on its four valve cylinder heads every 6,000 miles, which is
26:40 kind of crazy. 6,000 mile valve clearance inspection, that's pretty short.
26:49 It's interesting to see how BMW factored that in.
26:56 This bike, this engine has just over one gallon of oil inside its engine cases.
27:08 Engine oil not only lubricates the mechanical surfaces inside the engine,
27:14 but it also cools the engine. It's got a decently sized oil cooler on the chin of
27:24 the bike too to help keep the engine oil temperature within specification.
27:32 Fit and finish on this motorcycle, that's where this cruiser really stands apart
27:37 from the competition. This bike, just the craftsmanship on this bike is just
27:43 downright excellent. From the fit and finish of the metal parts to the way
27:50 everything is just perfectly assembled and put together, there's no huge gaps,
27:55 nothing feels loose and cheap. This is a very premium feeling motorcycle.
28:03 Really what BMW has done is they've offered, they're offering CVO, Harley
28:08 Davidson CVO levels of craftsmanship on all of its R18 cruiser bikes, which is
28:15 amazing because CVO motorcycles cost upwards of $30,000, $40,000 now.
28:23 And these BMW Motorrad R18 cruisers have that type of craftsmanship for a much
28:32 lower price, which is insane because these motorcycles are built in Berlin,
28:36 Germany. They have to be built in Berlin, Germany and shipped all the way to the
28:41 United States and they're still somehow less expensive. Unbelievable.
28:47 I just love cruising on this thing.
28:57 And with the addition of this fixed windscreen, it just makes it so much more
29:02 comfortable. Yes, I wish it was height adjustable. If it was height adjustable,
29:06 that would just be totally awesome. But with the addition of this fixed
29:11 windscreen and those decently sized saddlebags, I spend all day riding this
29:19 motorcycle. I cruise all around Southern California on this motorcycle.
29:23 This motorcycle with the addition of the windscreen and the saddlebag
29:27 just makes it a hundred times more practical than the traditional R18.
29:35 And yet it doesn't detract from its looks. This is a very good looking bike.
29:42 In my opinion, it looks even better than the R18.
29:49 I love letting this 1,818 cc engine eat. Dinner is served. Dinner is served.
30:00 I blew it. I was trying to do a sick burnout. I failed miserably.
30:06 Oh well, maybe next time. Well folks, there it is. BMW's 2021 R18 Classic. That was a
30:15 fun ride on this heavyweight cruiser. I just love this bike. I love the way it
30:21 looks. I love the styling attributes of this vehicle. Its engine, the mechanical
30:29 Xpros driveshaft, the double-loop frame, just the whole proportions, the way this
30:37 motorcycle is put together, the fit and finish, the sound, the extremely well
30:43 honed character of the engine. I love that it's got a windshield so you can
30:51 actually go places on it. I love that it's got these easy to use double buckle
30:57 plastic buckle saddlebags with the removable inserts. I can literally run
31:04 errands in Southern California. I can visit friends. I can bring things with me.
31:09 I like this motorcycle a lot. This particular vehicle rings in at $24,000.
31:21 So the base R18 Classic registers at $19,000, almost $20,000 for the
31:28 base one. $19,500 I believe it is. This one with the premium package which adds
31:36 reverse and the adaptive cornering headlamps and the select package with
31:46 its heated grips and those awesome fog lights that tax on another couple
31:54 thousand dollars. The one option that I wouldn't really spring for is the $2,000
32:00 option white pin striping and chrome kit. I could do without that. To me that's
32:06 just it's a misuse of $2,000. The premium package though and the select package I
32:14 absolutely would fully invest in if this motorcycle was mine. That said, would I
32:20 spend $24,000 on this bike? I wouldn't. I'd get it without the pin
32:25 striping chrome package and get the bike for $22,000.
32:31 $15,000 that's how I configure it but for $22,000 I would absolutely buy
32:37 this bike. I like this bike a lot. It looks totally awesome. It sounds totally
32:41 awesome. It has reasonable comfort as long as you don't ride and stop and go
32:46 traffic. I do not ride motorcycles and stop and go traffic. That's not how my
32:50 lifestyle is designed. So I would buy this motorcycle. I like it a lot. Well
32:57 folks, that's a wrap from today's MC Commute Review. Log on to
