BMW nineT Scrambler 1:18 Scale

In 2014, and in-line with the growing trend of modern cafe racer culture, BMW decided that they would enter the foray of retro-look, customisable motorcycles by introducing the BMW R nine T - the first of it’s new ‘Heritage’ line. With a name that was a nod to both the R90S from the seventies and BMWs ninety years of motorcycle production, the R nine T carried the torch for the hugely successful oil/air-cooled boxer engine which was becoming less common as the marque moved over to their more powerful, liquid cooled versions in most of their adventure and touring bikes. The oil-cooled boxer engine had famously circumnavigated the earth beneath a couple of suitably lovely chaps , but it was never going to be the right option to move the GS and RT models on as BMW’s competitors produced quicker, smoother and more efficient offerings. The nine T was almost seen as a suitable exit strategy in order to use up the remaining units in a sort of ‘limited run’ - little did BMW know that it would actually only be the beginning of something that was going to keep growing.
