Powering the motorcycle is a 1,170cc boxer engine churning out 109PS at 7,250rpm and 116Nm at 6,000rpm. It is mated to a 6-speed transmission with a hydraulically operated clutch. The engine is reined in by two rider modes: Road and Rain. Other standard electronics include cornering ABS and traction control. BMW Motorrad also offers an extra riding mode called Riding Mode Dynamic as an option.
The four-part frame is linked to a fully-adjustable inverted front fork and a rear Paralever suspension. It rolls on 17-inch spoke wheels with road-biased tyres on both ends. The BMW R nineT goes up against the Triumph Bonneville T120.
