Expert opinion and recommendation

The BMW R12 Cruiser is a polished and versatile motorcycle that seamlessly blends the comfort of a cruiser with the dynamism of a sportier bike. My experience with this bike has been nothing short of impressive, with its airoil-cooled 1,170cc boxer engine delivering a robust 95 bhp at 6,500 rpm and 110 Nm of torque. The riding position is comfortable, with a feet-forward setup and wide bars that boost confidence at lower speeds. The bike handles surprisingly well, even for its weight of 227 kg, and the suspension, though a bit stiff, inspires confidence in handling twisties at speed. The Rock and Roll riding modes offer a nice balance between sporty and mellow riding experiences. While it may not be a true long-distance touring option due to the lack of a front screen, it is more than capable of making any road a special experience. Overall, the R12 Cruiser feels reassuringly quality-built, making it a very easy model to recommend.

Recent news and announcements

The new 2024 BMW R 12 Cruiser has been unveiled, featuring a 1,170 cc air/oil-cooled boxer engine that produces 95 hp at 6,500 rpm and 81 lb-ft of torque at 6,000 rpm. This cruiser is designed for a laid-back riding experience with its low seat height, wide handlebars, and a classic teardrop-shaped steel tank. The bike also comes with advanced technology such as Dynamic Traction Control (DTC) and Engine Drag Torque Control for enhanced safety. I think this cruiser is a great blend of classic design and modern tech, making it an attractive option for those seeking a relaxed ride.

BMW Motorrad has announced the pricing for the 2024 R 12 nineT and R 12 Cruiser, with the R 12 nineT starting at $16,295 and the R 12 Cruiser at $12,345, plus destination fees. The bikes are set to hit the market in Q2 2024 and feature new frames, updated technology, and a redesigned airbox now integrated under the seat. I believe these prices make the R 12 models competitive in the market, especially given their robust feature set.
March 7, 2024
BMW Motorrad has emphasized the customization potential of the new R 12 models, with a backbone concept that allows for maximum freedom in designing the tank, seat, and other areas. This includes options like drag bar handlebars and custom rear end trim to give the R 12 a striking bobber style. I believe this focus on customization will be a major draw for enthusiasts who want to personalize their bikes.
February 29, 2024
The 2024 BMW R 12 Cruiser and R 12 nineT boast significant design changes, including a new Classic trellis frame with a bolted-on rear section and a left-hand exhaust system with double mufflers and conical end caps. The bikes are designed with customization in mind, offering great freedom in modifying the tank, seat, and other areas. I think the new frame and exhaust system give these bikes a unique and appealing look.
February 29, 2024
The R 12 Cruiser and R 12 nineT feature advanced riding modes to adapt to different riding preferences. The R 12 nineT comes with Rain, Road, and Dynamic modes, while the R 12 Cruiser has Roll and Rock modes. Both models are equipped with BMW Motorrad ABS Pro and cornering ABS for enhanced safety. I think these riding modes and safety features make these bikes versatile and safe for various riding conditions.

It includes Ex-Showroom Price in your city + RTO Charges (Vehicle Registration) + One Time Road Tax + Insurance Charges. The On-Road Price also includes some optional things like if you opt for Genuine Accessories and Extended Warranty while buying a vehicle. Please note that the On-Road Price varies a lot across different states in India due to different percentage for the State Registration Charges.
