The front end of the R 18 Transcontinental makes a statement. The bike has a large front fender and striking front end with auxiliary headlights that give an elegant, streamlined look. The BMW motorcycle also has a 6.3-gallon tank, floorboards, wind deflectors, and a top case with a backrest for a passenger.




Buyers can shop from four different exterior designs when picking out their very own BMW R 18 Transcontinental motorcycle. The First Edition has black storm metallic paint and white double lines. It also has silver-gray wheels, contrasting machining, and chrome-plated details throughout. The second option is the black storm metallic option, which emphasizes the elegant character of the bike.


The third design package for the R 18 Transcontinental is the Option 719 Galaxy Dust Metallic/Titan Silver 2 Metallic. The paint job of this motorcycle catches the light at different angles. Depending on the angle of the sunlight, the paint glows in shades ranging from turquoise blue to violet. The contrast against the matte black Big Boxer engine is eye-catching, unique, and sure to impress.


The final design package for this BMW motorcycle is the Manhattan Metallic Matte. It's subtle and sophisticated, yet bursting with energy.


The Big Boxer engine of the R 18 Transcontinental is just as attractive as the bike's styling. This engine offers 116 pound-feet of torque at 3,000 rpm and as much as 1802 cc displacement.
