Individualisation
We have revived iconic characteristics of our motorcycle history with the R 18 Classic. Its overall concept offers you plenty of liberty when designing your own R 18 Classic. We have compiled three special variants of the nostalgic cruiser for you as inspiration.
Customising Inspiration One
Casual and relaxed
The R 18 Classic in Manhattan metallic is elegant while also being expressive. The chrome-plated Beachbar handlebars underline the bike’s vintage character. Machined footboards milled from high-grade aluminium add confident style – and support a casual seating position. The silver Option 719 Aero wheel harmoniously integrates into the overall image and the Round rear silencer literally rounds off the cruiser.
Wide Beachbar handlebars make it possible to sit in a relaxed position and they hearken back to the good old motorcycling days.
Aluminium Machined rider’s footboards are the solution with confident style when it’s about casual, relaxed cruising.
The Round rear silencers emphasise the boxer sound and make every ride an optical and visual experience.
Manhattan metallic matt paintwork lends the motorcycle an elegant, yet expressive appearance.
Customising Inspiration Two
Nostalgic and comfortable
The classic, nostalgic variant of the cruiser has been perfectly equipped for relaxed riding. The masked windscreen featuring partial black prints marks a cool highlight. The Cross Country seat including rider’s backrest, rider’s legrest and the 2-Tone-Black rider’s footboard guarantee plenty of comfort – on short trips or on extensive tours. In this context, chrome-plated engine protection bars protect the powerful boxer engine.
The functional, black Tour rider’s backrest is simply attached and can be both folded down and features adjustable inclination.
The black Cross Country seat boasts a high-grade finish and offers excellent seating comfort for rider and passenger.

Customising Inspiration Three
Passionate and sporty
The R 18 Classic radiates fully fledged touring passion. The Moonstone model variant with Option 719 package is reminiscent of the 1930s streamlined look. The chrome-plated 6.5-inch ape-hanger handlebars, chrome-plated LED flashing turn indicators with rear light combination and black end caps for the rear silencers further enhance the bike’s stylishness. The masked, low windscreen emphasises the bike’s sporty character.
