By 2017, BMW had fleshed out the R nineT platform to include the original, the Scrambler, the Pure, the Urban GS, and the Racer. The latter was styled as a cafe racer with a solo seat and a lovely white/red/blue BMW Motorsports livery.
The 1,170cc boxer motor generates 110 horsepower and 86 lb-ft of torque. BMW considered it the sportiest of the R nineT lineup, and it showed in the riding position with aggressive clipons and rearsets.
As noted in this Rider magazine comparison, “with its bullet fairing, rear seat cowl, low clip-on handlebars and stretched-out profile, the Racer screams its intent: get on, shut up and go fast.” Lemmy at RevZilla summed it up simply: “I dug the Racer. A lot.” He adds, “the Racer goes where you lean with no fanfare. At 480 pounds…[it] feels friendlier and more playful than the demeanor and price tag would belie.”
