The all-new 2025 BMW R 12 nineT has arrived in Malaysia, and is priced from RM124,500. The R 12 nineT is the replacement for the original R nineT which made its debut in 2014.
Despite retaining the same engine as its predecessor, the new motorcycle has been extensively reworked and has a whole list of new features. As such, it is considered all-new.

From BMW Motorrad’s Press Release
The all-new 2025 BMW R 12 nineT retains the unmistakable power and character of the iconic boxer engine, combined with the timeless appeal of traditional motorcycles, all while offering extensive modularity for personalisation. At the heart of the bike is a newly developed tubular bridge steel spaceframe, which eliminates the need for previous fastenings, resulting in a lighter structure and a cleaner, more classic look. The rear frame, also crafted from tubular steel, is seamlessly bolted to the main frame.

The aluminium fuel tank, with brushed and clear-coated side panels, along with the seat and tail-hump, form a dynamic, rising line that accentuates the bike’s sleek profile. The upside-down fork provides both a sleek look and superior handling, while the radial brake calipers and twin-disc front brake ensure powerful stopping performance. Other distinctive features, such as the chrome-plated header and 17-inch cast light-alloy wheels, enhance its bold character. For improved ergonomics, the rider’s position is slightly closer to the handlebars, allowing for better knee contact and a more front-oriented seating stance. Two analogue round instruments display the speed and RPM, with a USB-C port on the left side and a 12V socket on the right side.

The powerhouse of the All-New BMW R 12 nineT is a 1,170cc water-cooled, 2-cylinder, 4-stroke Boxer engine, which delivers an impressive 109 hp (80kW) at 7,000 RPM and 115 Nm of torque at 6,500 RPM, with seamless power delivery through a 6-speed claw-shift gearbox and hydraulically operated dry clutch. Accelerating from 0-100 km/h in just 3.6 seconds, the All-New BMW R 12 nineT is capable of a top speed exceeding 200 km/h, with fuel consumption at 5.1 l/100km (WLTP).

The All-New BMW R 12 nineT is equipped as standard with a comprehensive set of features designed to enhance safety on the ride. These include Dynamic Traction Control (DTC) system for stability and control in various road conditions and BMW Motorrad ABS Pro for superior braking performance even at lean angles. On the other hand, LED Headlights and Daytime Riding Light ensure clear visibility, while the adaptive Headlight Pro system automatically adjusts to lighting conditions, offering superior illumination whether riding in bright daylight or low-light environments.

For a more connected and intuitive experience, Keyless Ride and Connected Ride Control is standard for the All-New BMW R 12 nineT. Additionally, the Comfort Package offers features such as Cruise Control, Hill Start Control, and Heated Grips, ensuring that long rides are just as comfortable as they are thrilling. With the ability to choose between Rain, Road, and Dynamic modes, each ride can be customised to suit different conditions and riding styles.

The All-New BMW R 12 nineT is available in a sole colour of Black Storm Metallic.
