Image gallery: BMW RnineT Racer revealed at Intermot 2016
What you see below is the new BMW RnineT Racer shown at the 2016 Intermot in Cologne, Germany. The RnineT was a retro-styled machine, and BMW has made it further more appealing by giving it a cafe racer like treatment. It offers a half fairing, hump rear seat, clip-on style handlebars and rear set footpegs. This one shares its motor and the chassis with the regular RnineT which means the 1,170cc motor continues to put out 110PS of peak power. The important change though is that the motor now complies with the cleaner Euro-IV emission standards. You can find all the details on the new BMW RnineT here.
