A Month on BMW R Nine T Scrambler / 2022 Review 

it's a very nice bike. I rode mine through Europe this january (Kiel-Alicante mostly near the coast) and 7-800km pr day was no problem. (I had to change some parts in Germany so used a few days extra). Had the Ducati Scrambler before, and this is absolutely it's much bigger brother in all respects..... it comfortably makes above 200km/h and bellow 3.5 on 0-100... so it's a comfortable fun bike, while a beast in disguise!

You are refreshing . Thank you. Your review was informative, and your comments and questions were helpful to someone trying to reenter the motorcycle world. I enjoyed your style.

I really love your videos, you come across as a really genuine person, and all of your videos are great but you can really see your sense of humor and humanity in your build videos with jonesy, happy days

I have always loved the look of the R Nine T, looking forward to seeing your next vlog on the customisation of one

Great review. Changed bike loads of times in the past couple of years, including a Tiger 900, GS 1250, Aprilia Tuono, Ducati Scrambler...I now have a little Fantic 500 scrambler that I adore. It is amazing around town but less good for long distances. I still love the Rnine t but have never tried the scrambler version. I would try one but I live in the Paris region and the speed limits are stupid, 18mph and 35mph on most others. You have tempted me though😂

Mine is a 2017, same color as yours. Except mine has spoke wheels. I’d ridden by GSAs for years. My last bike was a KTM 690 Enduro R. This is a helluva lot different! I’m 71 years old now, and my days technical , single track enduros is over. This bike is so little and low, I love it!

I am surprised to even be considering any motorcycle but I am in love with this Scrambler. I really enjoyed how the commentator said it is good for any season. That is the type of bike that I need, a bike for all seasons.

The Boxex Engine is what makes the r9t have “the twitchy feeling” because of how the motor is configured as you lean into the corner and give it throttle the Boxer wants to pull the bike the other way, of course there is much more science behind this but this is the most simple explanation. 😊 I love my r9t scrambler. Great video 😁

You’re 100% right on weight. Scramblers in the 60’s and 70’s were very light weight and that makes them really fun on dirt, unfortunately, they were horrible on faster highways. Nowadays, people want the scrambler look but they want it as a primary bike as a daily road bike and that requires weight. Light weight bikes on highways are not fun and confidence inspiring. This is why many of us have multiple bikes. 😀

I wish my wife was this excited about BMW motorcycles……👍🤣🤣

Wonderful review. I'm in love too - even though I haven't ridden one yet. But I'm seriously considering one next spring 2024. Thanks!

Amazing motorcycle and a Cool review! Keep inspiring people

Thanks Deimante for a very good review. I wasn’t familiar with this model, it looks great and I like it. Regarding winter riding , you are fortunate to be able to do it at all. Not possible where I am ( Toronto), with sub zero temps and lots of snow. Stay safe and well. Cheers, Dan ✌️🏍🇨🇦

So nice to watch you, and I like the interview format very much! The Piercity episode 🆒 should be interesting, they have EXCELLENT tutorial videos on You Tube (I picked up a few items for my R9T from themas well even though I live in Canada....) 🤩

3:44 This is the one I would have. I agree with you. I think weight adds to the feeling of stability. What I like about flat twins is the weight is so low, it feels like it locks you to the road. I had an R1100GS for 92,000 miles. The most stable bike I have had.

Thank you so much!!! This was a very good and informative review. Love it and I’m thinking on a Ducati scrambler o an r9 t scrambler so your review was perfect. ❤

AWESOME as always

I relate to your description of "something between custom heritage and technology". A friend of mine has one, but I didn't know the model until I went into a BMW shop (Melbourne) yesterday and saw it - a work of art really. I haven't owned a bike for many years, but this could be it ;-). I've driven a lot of outback miles in a 4WD in central Australia, but I'd like to try it on a bike. The feeling you describe when accelerating out of a corner sounds like the torque effect you get from the shaft drive with an longitudinal crankshaft. In any ICE motor, the flywheel is there to smooth out the balance between the translational (piston) and rotational (crankshaft) forces - but it's never perfect, like when you need to find the sweet spot in the vibrations on a long trip. I've experienced the torque effect on an old girlfriend's Moto Guzzi - at rest if you tweak the throttle, you'd feel the bike rolling slightly, and when moving the shaft effect out of a corner. Thanks for the review. 🙂

Nice, funny, honest review... I love ur axen... My favourite is R Nine T black-red. Keep going.....😉👌

Great review, loads of detail and personal preferences. Great….

What a fantastic review 👍

Great review. I really think the café racer version of these models are top notch!

Good review! Test rode a gorgeous 719 option. I LOVED the look of the bike. Unfortunately I felt like a bear riding a football. I ended up with a R1250R HP. I added windshield, hardside bags and topper and now have a kind of RT light. Easily convertible to naked, but handy with the bags. I still wish I had bought the R9T if for no other reason than the art of the motorcycle. I will keep my eyes open.

i totally agree with your opinion about all those adventurebikes ...i also don´t like them, there is lack of emotion... but i love my RnineT 2014 with some modification as like Wilbers suspension, heated grips, tail mods, ... i use it as an every day bike but also for big trips around europe! i owned a lot of bikes in my life but this one is the absolutely all in one LOVE! IT IS BETTER IN THE WIND ! Thank´s for your honest review and come to visit Austria :-) !!!

Beautiful bike, this is a great video, good job 👍🏻

Great to see your vlog. I just got the same model, a 2021 with 725 km, it has the two clocks, cruise and heated grips. Fitted a Hepco Becker mini rack and will be fitting the crash bars, rear fender and bash plate. Cannot wait for better weather as ACF50 is to be applied

Ive had overall around 10 different bikes so far and without hesitation my R9t scrambler is the best. If it is up to me I will never sell it, ever.

I love your boots and jacket 😍👍.

I own the pure version and absolutely love it!

The exhaust is slight on a softer note, but on it's stock exhaust, removing the cables for the exhaust flapper does help to increase the exhaust noise a little if it helps!

The feeling of the engine s inertia . I think that is what you are trying to describe . I have a 1978 R100/7 . I know this feeling . It’s great 👍

Nice video and review 👍...it's a nice bike with tons of character!. Look forward to seeing your trip to Pier city customs...Rory and Stuart have a ton of knowledge about the Rninety range and make ownership of the R ninety an affordable option for a lot of people through their service packages and the ' how to ' tutorials. Cheers, Steve

Very impressive. This will probably be my next bike. I currently ride a ZX6R. Looking to dive into the cafe racer type of scene now that I have grown a bit. Still love the ZX6R, but this would be a great daily and city ride bike. $14,000 UDS is reasonable as well.

Best RnineT Video I´ve ever seen :)

R9T (actually a scrambler, but all of them has only a minor differences) reminds me my Ural, it's wide and heavy. The weight / performance ratio is big what allows to bike accelerate very fast, but it's still feels heavier

its because the pistons go sideways so when you throttle it you get that bit of a sideways rock, i love it ...

Miss, you are trying to say is, that the R nine t has character, its a beast, it has grunt! I have the scrambler version, its a beast of a bike, but really way to heavy to safely scramble off road. The reason is that if that beast fell on top of you, it would hurt more than a lot!!

I remember bumping into you summer 2021 when you had the gold R Nine T which looked awesome. My friend Nes now has one and I’m looking forward to days out with her soon! I’ve never been a fan of the look of the BMW engine but they have grown on me over recent years. I’m looking forward to seeing your custom vlog! 😁👍

Great video nice bike .you see BMW in USA. Nice I ride a 1997 dyna wideglide I really like it

This bike looks amazing. I passed my test 10 years ago but have never got around to buying a bike. Back then, my favourite bike was the Nine T. This is even better. The only question is where do you put your things, like your camera or your bread and milk when you go shopping?

Have a 1983 XJ650... planning on modifying the transmission to be able to bolt up to a 2.3 litter car engine, the gears can take it. "don't need to be hard on it to get it going"

Cool review and you too. I have 3 bimmers 1962 R69S, 2005 GS, and my reliable but worn 2002 R1150R - I’d like to retro it! Hope your sponsor sells lots of riding jeans! New sub!

Stunning bike

I’ve applied for finance for a R NineT - fingers crossed❤️

Good Review....I am sure that the BMW nine t is alive 🤣 A great bike !

Blimey, that crash helmet looks huge.

What a big smile you had ... will you be able to give it back ... that's the question. Stay warm and happy Deimante. (ps, after chemo, it think my hands and feet are the same. Never warm up ...) Later gater!

This lady was super excited about the heated grips

Really nice jacket :)

Aaahh a girl with real taste!!💯👍🏽

torque reaction its been a bmw thing for a long time

The mention of it being too heavy, I think, is for it's off road performance but then again, all scramblers off road abilities are going to be questioned. It's a cool bike.

What kind of helmet you wear? Looks nice. BTW. I'm owner of R90T Scrambler, too.

I have Raynaud's, my last bike was a BMW F800 and the heated grips where amazing. Every bike in the UK should have heated grips.

😂loved the “full of idiots” part, spot on😬. You should join us on one of our ride outs. We make lots of noise😬🤘🏻 Gero kelio🤜💥🤛

gorgeousness

Thanks for starting off with your height. And doing so showing in feet and inches. 5'9". It's my height and my f850 gs is just too tall for me.

That bike does so suit you 🔥❤️x

beautiful place it reminds me of the country side of Brazil, where I came form

I make really cool aftermarket mirrors for the R NineT - get in touch 😉

need full exhaust covers for any passenger riding; one negative; ; the scrambler 900s' have pipes lower. Same for triumph and HD. We wear shorts all year around in Asia.

Lovely video besides loud music

😍its so pretty

the twitchy turns... its because of the boxter engine configuration

I owned 2019 scrambler option 719 . Handbar vibration has really ingoring . especially on highway.

Guys, take a look on suspension 10:51 very important part of a bike!!

Nice!!!!!

A. SUPER. AWESOME. REVIEW. AND. TO THE POINT. TNKS. FOR HELP ME CHOSE MI NEXT BIKE. LADY. AND. HY. FROM THE ISLAND OF PUERTO RICO. WE HAVE. SUMMER ALL YEAR ROUND. HERE. AND YOU ARE MORE THAN WELCOME....😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇

Cheer up Jimmy.

Great video! What riding boots are those?

Great bike! btw…where did u get that jacket? Mind to share… wanna buy one as well, thanks

How tall are you? I feel like I might be too short for this bike

Your height, 1.75 m is exactly the same as mine as I'm 5' 7" tall. I was going to ask how tall you were as Beemers are usually quite high. Saved me asking the question.

The feeling u get in a corner could be the boxer engine

I own a GS1250 and I ride it like a hooligan on road and bash it on the riverbed. So much so I sold my XR...but R9T is the most good looking one....wah I am already doing the math..the feel in the corner is because of the boxer engine.

Excellent bike . Superb technology. But too expensive....

Bike looks good on you and vice versa. So you are in love eh? Best to ditch that HD and go with your true love; you will never look back. Of course, I am a biased R9T rider. Love from Canada. 🇨🇦

Ebiker Swift White Beach Cruiser Coming to Pontiac Michigan soon

Lovely bike. But I still prefer the RS.

I like You......and I don't think about motorcycles only...this bike is interesting 🤔one .I visited BMW dealer .... although my favorite is naked bike.

It's so beautiful... 😩😍

What about vibration? Scrambler don't have a "tacho", but further I review tables compared speed and motor revs, the vibration occurs after 4000 rpm, and they are very big. But the engine performance allows rides on the civil speeds without vibrations.

I am not sure there is an English word for that, to me it feels like a racehorse enthusiastically propelling you forward in an adrenalin rush, the low center of gravity makes it feel like that I think

Am amazed how many people still think a bike like this is for off road!

How much does such a bike costs?

L'ho avuta per un giorno, non vedevo l'ora di restituirla.

hello there!....nice video , !......what helmet do you wear here?

how about the Voge 500AC... love this retro style too. #Vogeph

higher ride is more leg room and more passenger comfort !

My 20 S1000XR is too quiet also.

Why do I find it sounds familiar to bmw f800r?😅

how tall are you?

R9t-No balls No worries 👍.

So, are you willing to sell your Sportster to buy the BMW?

the scrambla

What helmet are you using?

i know BMW R series good bikes. But ! Looking at R Nine from the front, I see it as cool. When I look from the side, the saddle seems very simple to me. They can do the saddle better. Am I the only one who thinks like that? :)

I have a R9T and it is the bike with the worst (uncomfortable and harsh) suspension...

okay, after 4dayz with TvNews channels 🙈 , it’s time for entertainment with TomboyTV 😁👍🏿

how tall is she?
