The event kicked things off with dinner and a live performance by local band NRG or “Name, Reputation & Glamour”, before the BMW Motorrad Heritage lines of motorcycles were unveiled by Mr. Owen Riley, Head of BMW Motorrad and Mr. Sashi Ambi, Head of Corporate Communications, BMW Group Malaysia.

The new models were initially introduced by the Managing Director & CEO of BMW Group Malaysia, Mr. Han Sang Yun who stated that “The new BMW Motorrad Heritage lines of motorcycles have enabled us to share our passion for our premium two wheel vehicles with a new segment of customers here and help them make their lives a ride.”

All three models share the same but powerful 1,170cc air/oil-cooled boxer engine that is able to churn out 110hp and 116Nm of torque that’s driven to the rear wheel via a 6-speed transmission. To make sure the power plant meets the Euro4 requirements, the engine has gone through an evolution for its engine mapping, fuel delivery system, carbon fuel canister and a larger catalytic converter for the exhaust system.

The new BMW R nineT, R nineT Pure and R nineT Racer are priced at RM101,900, RM82,900 and RM88,900 (basic prices with GST).
