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, thereby giving it a more dynamic characteristic 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.

Classic cruiser with modern highlights

Its classic design language, combined with modern equipment and optimized ergonomics, makes the R 18 Classic a timeless cruiser. The stylish highlights include the front-wheel fender, which powerfully emphasizes the classic design lines, and the aesthetic single seat bench that wins riders over with its incredible seat comfort. With these and other highlights, every mile is an experience in itself.

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.
