No other surface is as closely linked to the custom cruiser scene as chrome is. The new Premium Style “Blacked Out” offers you an attractive, dark chrome finish for your bike, giving it a more dynamic look. The black highlights will meet even the highest standards for individuality and modernity. The style includes many different components in dark chrome – from the exhaust system, to pushrod tubes, right up to the trim panel components with this refined finish.

A puristic cruiser with a wealth of highlights

The R 18 is our puristic cruiser with soul. The fact that this bike is timeless and modern can be seen in the design elements, ergonomics, and equipment. The ergonomic single seat bench allows you to cruise in comfort. With the large, 18” rear wheel, this bike brings both style and dynamism to the streets. Its premium qualities are further enhanced with the Blacked Out surface finish.

Plenty of room

Make cruising into an experience: The special form of this single seat bench in a “Dragster Design” with elongated pelvic support at the rear combines a modern aesthetic with a high level of comfort.
