The Castomizers Canvas!

BMW is a prominent automobile manufacturer in the world. Yet, they are known to do things differently, especially when it comes to motorcycles.

Having one of the widest product ranges among all bike makers, BMW Motorrad caters to all segments barring a few (cruisers). The uniqueness in their motorcycles lies with the boxer-twin engines which is one of the longest running engine structures that we have ever seen. No doubt it is a testament to its reliability.

The boxer-twin is also extremely flexible in the sense that BMW has used it in a variety of motorcycles like street fighters, faired sport bikes, tourers and even cruisers (R1200C, 1997 – 2004). Now, BMW has further expanded the user of this engine in a modern-classic, the R nineT, which they launched in 2014.
