Image Credit BMW BMW took six wheels to the Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este on the shore of Lake Como. Four of those wheels sit under the Marcello Gandini-designed Garmisch concept. The other two are for this, the Motorrad division's R18 concept. This is the third concept bike in the last six months to showcase the company's new boxer engine, coming after the cyberpunk cafe racer Departed concept out of Japan in December, and last month's barely-there Revival Birdcage concept built in Texas. This in-house design from BMW goes all-in on classic motifs given the slightest of modern touches. Instead of the air-cooling of yore, this engine is air- and oil-cooled, and fed by dual Solex carbs instead of fuel injection. The unit is supported in the kind of round-edged cradle frame one can trace all the way back to the R5 from the 1930s. The block and transmission housing are made of bead-blasted aluminum, contrasting with the hand-polished belt guard and valve covers. An exposed, chrome-plated driveshaft running to the rear hub is the kind of historical touch that should be etched with the phrase, "When Men Were Men." Since the R18 concept's philosophy is leaving out anything superfluous, the only electronics to be found work the starter and the lights. A cantilever spring strut hides beneath the minimalist leather seat. A "U" pattern graces the headlight glass, just as with historic units, but this one goes for LEDs instead of halogen. The staggered wheels - 21 inches in front, 18 inches in back - wear rubber from in BMW Motorrad's historic tire partner, Metzeler. The only ornamental item on the bike is the paintwork. The teardrop tank and fork are bathed in black, overlaid with a yellow-gold metallic varnish and white, hand-applied pinstripes. The rider gets some ornament, too, with the smooth horse leather jacket featuring built-in protectors. This two-wheeled teaser is an "emotional and authentic offer for the large cruiser segment," meaning that we're being prepared for a line of production motorcycles from BMW with the flat-twin. Observers think a bagger, a tourer, and a cruiser are on the way, and a thrust at segments owned by Harley-Davidson. BMW Motorrad will reveal the first of them sometime later this year, perhaps in advance of the EICMA show in November.

BMW Motorrad custom concept unveiled at Villa d’Este. It’s the world premiere the custom scene has been eagerly awaiting – a BMW Motorrad custom concept featuring a new prototype flat-twin engine – the highest capacity boxer motorcycle ever produced. Simply named Concept R 18’, this pure, stripped-down, raked-out bike gives more than a hint of what’s coming - in the cruiser segment. Custom built concept vehicle. Not available for sale. Concept cruiser steals the show at the Concorso. Concept cruiser steals the show at the Concorso. It has become something of a tradition for BMW Motorrad to present breathtaking design studies in Italy every May at the Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este event on the shores of Lake Como. Visitors to the world’s most exclusive beauty contest’ for historic cars and motorcycles have witnessed some outstanding two-wheeled contributions from BMW Motorrad’s design department in recent years. These have included the Concept Ninety homage to the original R 90 S, the Concept 101 six-cylinder bagger’ and the R 5 Hommage – a tribute to the original and iconic 1936 model. Riders from around the world have noted with significant interest two fascinating custom bikes recently unveiled by reputable builders in Japan and the USA featuring prototypes of BMW Motorrad’s big boxer engine. The builders – CUSTOM WORKS ZON and Revival Cycles – were each given free rein for their own interpretations of how a large-capacity boxer custom bike could look. And the stunning results witnessed in the Departed’ and Birdcage’ builds have begged the question among enthusiasts – how might a genuine BMW Motorrad hand-built’ machine look and sound? Custom built concept vehicle. Not available for sale. Don't miss a thing. Stay informed about the Concept R18 Project. " A motorcycle is the biggest accessory you can wear. It’s not about being the fastest. " Edgar Heinrich BMW Motorrad Head of Design Well, the wait is over. And judging by the enthusiastic reaction of those who saw and heard it unveiled at the 90th anniversary Concorso’ celebratory event, the Concept R 18 is set to win the hearts and souls of fans worldwide. Equally exciting, BMW Motorrad will be presenting a series production cruiser motorcycle powered by the big boxer’ engine in 2020. If it looks and performs anything like the Concept R 18, custom bike riders are in for a treat. " We have a history other companies would kill for, and it’s great to capitalize on it. " Edgar Heinrich BMW Motorrad Head of Design Stripped-back and naked, BMW Motorrad style. Stripped-back and naked, BMW Motorrad style. Lay your eyes on the Concept R 18 and it’s clear that a desire to make an authentic, pure, hand-built, custom bike has taken the designers deep into the brand’s past for inspiration. Without a doubt, these talented enthusiasts – many of whom chop’ bikes in their spare time – have certainly made good on the promise initially shown with the unveiling of the R 5 Hommage in 2016, exactly 80 years after the legendary sports boxer made its debut. This segment needs a big motor, so if the 500cc unit of the original R 5 doesn’t cut it by modern standards then the biggest motorcycle boxer engine of all time certainly does. Custom built concept vehicle. Not available for sale. " BMW decided a long time ago to make a heritage bike with a big boxer engine. " Michael Eder BMW Motorrad Design Reduced to only the absolute, pure essentials. Reduced to only the absolute, pure essentials. Clearly an exciting bridge between the aforementioned hommage’ bike and the forthcoming series production motorcycle, the Concept R 18 has presence, attitude and promise in equal measures. The focus is the huge boxer engine – physically much larger in size than the 500cc version used in the hommage showbike, and designed to make a real statement. The spoked wheels have been chosen 21” front and 19” rear to match the considerable proportions and the overall stance of this latest showbike which exudes attitude and presence. The modified front end and fishtail exhaust contribute to its custom, hand-made feel. Custom built concept vehicle. Not available for sale. Low and long, raked out and understated, the Concept R 18 is a thing of beauty, with its polished aluminum cylinder covers, subtle color treatment to the motor, teardrop tank and fork, and areas of pin-striping with golden yellow tint in the deep, layered paint treatment. There are only three metal surface treatments used – either blasted, painted or polished – to give a clean, authentic atmosphere for the bike, while the iconic Metzeler-branded RILLE tires have a custom-made tread pattern and special color treatment on the sidewalls. Anyone familiar with BMW bikes from the 50s will recognize the Pagusa-style seat, with embossed logo and hammered area on the leather. Uncomplicated riding that feeds your soul. Uncomplicated riding that feeds your soul. Open shaft-drive, cantilever rear suspension, a twin-Solex carburetor from a BMW 2002 car, a 1950s Bosch-inspired LED headlight mounted between the fork legs, no visible switchgear – the list goes on. And a walk around the Concept R 18 as the motor’s plaquette proudly states includes many surprises. For sure, it’s the continuation of a story that started with the R 5 Hommage. But what is most exciting is where this story is leading us now – not down the high-technology road, but in a more individual, authentic, and, dare we say, emotional direction.

BMWs latest concept bike uses striking retro styling to show off its massive modern engine. Like the skeletal "Birdcage" concept the German automaker commissioned through Austin's Revival Cycles,"A picture is worth a thousand words" is a well-known adage reflecting the notion that a complex idea can be conveyed with a single image, which more effectively conveys its essence than does a adage came immediately to mind when the new BMW Motorrad "Concept R 18" was shown at Concorso d'Elegenza Villa d'Este on the weekend. Whilst it is indeed only a concept for the flying propellor brand, the "Concept R 18" is effectively the first shot in a war. It represents the first offensive on Harley-Davidson and Indian territory. Harley still rules the cruiser marketplace globally, having sold 228,000 hogs last year, compared to BMW's worldwide sales of 165,000 motorcycles across myriad segments ... but the new BMW liter boxer engine seems to fulfill all the criteria required to give both Harley and Indian a run for their starters, BMW has the credibility and longevity to match the American brands, but with the new engine, it has the cubic twin-cylinder grunt to more than match them in the cruiser litres isn't enough, rumors already suggest a 2000cc version of the BMW horizontally-opposed twin will also be available, no doubt with Harley-Davidson's 1923cc and Indian's 1901cc V-twins in mind as its primary most remarkable aspect of the Concept R 18 is that the new big bore BMW boxer motorcycle engine it contains has been shown previously. We've seen two custom motorcycles using the new big bore boxer engine over the last six months and the release of a new engine to custom builders prior to its showing in a factory-produced motorcycle is unprecedented. 'Departed' was shown last December 2018 at the fabled "Mooneyes Show" in Yokohama in Japan. In the 27 years the show has been running, it has become one of the most important on the world custom stage, and the December show attracted 300 show cars and 650 show motorcycles. 'Departed' won the prestigious "Best of Show Motorcycle" award, at the same time as creating a stir among BMW aficionados about the engine which was publicly acknowledged by the BMW factory as a prototype for the first Motorrad That's the Custom Works Zon "Departed" which was shown last December 2018 at the fabled Mooneyes Show in Yokohama in Japan.

"Departed" won the prestigious Best of Show Motorcycle award, at the same time as creating a stir among BMW aficionados about the engine, which was publicly acknowledged by the BMW factory as a prototype for the first time. The new large capacity boxer engine is believed to be ready for production in both 1800cc and 2000cc capacities, with further derivative models to be shown later this year and next year 2020.BMW Motorrad Dubbed the R 18, which according to BMW's traditional nomenclature, indicates it has a capacity of around 1800cc, the geometry and elements present in the show bike were reminiscent of much older BMW Motorrad engines. The push rods running above the cylinders in chrome-plated protection ducts were used in BMW boxer engines in the 1960s, and if you check out "Departed" in the image gallery for this article, you'll see the valve gear covers were styled on pre-WW2 BMW engines, despite the equally obvious modern day air/oil cooling. Six weeks ago in April, 2019, a second custom bike using the BMW prototype engine appeared at the annual Handbuilt Show in Austin, Texas. Austin is also the home of renowned American custom craftsman Alan Stulberg's Revival Cycles, and the 'Revival Birdcage' show bike was clearly inspired by Ernst Hennes' speed record BMW machinery from the late 1920s and early 1930s, which wore similar polished aluminum teardrop valve-gear Motorrad Six weeks ago in April, 2019, a second custom bike using the BMW prototype engine appeared at the annual Handbuilt Show in Austin, Texas. Austin is also the home of renowned American custom craftsman Alan Stulberg's Revival Cycles, and the "Revival Birdcage" show bike was clearly inspired by Ernst Hennes' speed record BMW machinery from the late 1920s and early 1930s, which wore similar polished aluminum teardrop valve-gear two custom motorcycles somewhat disguised the sheer physical size of the prototype engine by dressing it in different contexts and with cylinder heads that evoked different eras of the company's signature boxer twin engine. This time, although the R 18 Concept bike also relies heavily on historic cues in evoking the company's near 100 year heritage, the magnitude of the big bore engine is suddenly evident because we can see it in a relatively traditional BMW form factor. BMW Motorrad's "Concept R18" motorcycle was shown for the first time at Concorso d'Elegenza Villa d'Este 2019 - the nomenclature suggests it has a capacity around the 1800cc Motorrad Those protruding pots are HUGE, and after 98 years of producing horizontally-opposed motorcycle engines, BMW has suddenly raised the boxer engine's capacity by a whopping 50 percent, stepping it up from middleweight to heavyweight class ... BMW Motorrad l Concept R 18 ... and the intention is suddenly clear that it is going after Harley-Davidson's heavyweight crown in the cruiser class of motorcycles."Naturally we want to keep growing," said Timo Resch, Vice President Sales and Marketing BMW Motorrad at the unveiling of the "Revival Birdcage" show bike. In the context of what we have now seen at Villa d'Este, his words take on much more meaning "One step we will take to do so, certainly in the US market, is to enter the Cruiser segment. BMW Motorrad is consistently pursuing its growth strategy with the clear aim of becoming the number one in the Premium Big Bike Segment."I've owned and tested Harley-Davidson and BMW twins for almost 50 years, and I've always thought of the BMW twins as more like a Swiss watch and Harley V-twins as more like Big Ben, despite their similar engine capacities. Those protruding pots are HUGE, and after 98 years of producing horizontally-opposed motorcycle engines, BMW has suddenly raised the boxer engine's capacity by a whopping 50 percent, stepping it up several orders of magnitude from middleweight to heavyweight classBMW Motorrad There's something about the exquisite primary balance of the BMW Motorrad horizontally-opposed engine that makes it feel more like a scalpel than a meat axe, but the emergence of this new big bore version of the age old design puts it firmly into Harley-Davidson territory. With Indian also providing a credible alternative to the Harley-Davidson cruisers, the stage looks set for a battle BMW
