The 2022 BMW R18: Heritage Cruising

The BMW R18 already seems like a long-loved European cruiser, despite being in just its 3rd model year. I suspect that may be due to the stunning 1802 cc two-cylinder boxer engine proudly on display under the clean lines of the 4.23-gallon teardrop fuel tank.

The R 18 is the most stripped-down, pure riding experience within the big displacement Heritage section of the 2022 BMW lineup. With 116 lbs-ft of torque, the R18 moves with ease, and adding the optional premium package brings cruise control, heated grips, hill-start control, and adaptive headlights to further refine the riding experience.

If customization is on your mind, the R18 is a perfect platform to set your imagination loose upon.
