BMW R nineT 2018

What more can be said about the BMW R nineT? Since its release in 2014, it has been a real perennial favourite in the customising scene and also at BMW itself. Its ingredients, however, are of very high quality and explain why the result is so coherent. The boxer engine, full of character, is a real joy every time you pull the throttle and, thanks to the wonderful sound, it never gets boring in the long run. Despite the relatively high weight, the BMW is pleasant to ride thanks to the high-quality chassis and finds a balanced mixture between cruiser and sporty naked bike. The look is of course a matter of taste, but the sales figures suggest that BMW must have done something right. And even if you don't like the standard look, accessories are a dime a dozen.

So this is it: the first two-cylinder motorbike from the young Brixton brand. And we can only say: Hats off! The Crossfire 500 is a strong statement in the A2 class up to 48 hp that doesn't have to hide from the established competition! A lively engine, cool looks, renowned products in brakes and chassis, as well as good workmanship are a tasty recipe for such a fun bike. If the front brake needed a little less power, the only thing to complain about would be the readability of the LC display. A real enrichment of this performance class! And if this is only the beginning of a hopefully long and successful Brixton history, we can still look forward to great things!
