Features

Features

  • POWERFUL BIG BOXER ENGINE: With a displacement of 1,802 cc and a peak torque of 116 lbs-ft, our largest boxer engine also lends the R 18 Roctane a unique riding experience and a respectable thrust when you need it.
  • IMPRESSIVE 21-INCH FRONT WHEEL: The 21-inch front wheel emphasizes the appearance of the R 18 Roctane. The high-quality, cast aluminum wheel gives this bike its presence.
  • STRIKING MINI APE-HANGER: The mini ape-hanger is ideal for touring, enabling a front-wheel-oriented seating position.
  • BLACK, STRAIGHT REAR EXHAUST: The impressive boxer sound originates from the equally impressive exhaust system in dark chrome. Its straight shape underscores the horizontal, elongated design line of the R 18 Roctane.
  • ROUND LED HEADLIGHT: The full LED headlight has been integrated into a high-quality metal housing. An available cornering light as well as optimized low beam and high-beam headlights add visibility.
  • COMFORTABLE DRAGSTER SEAT: The comfortable, dragster-style seat provides support when accelerating. It offers a high level comfort and support in an upright seating position when you rest your feet on the floorboards.
  • HARD-SHELL CASES: Water-resistant hard-shell cases with black hinges offer space for up to 22 lbs of luggage. Their top-loading design makes them easy to open.
  • TRADITIONAL ROUND DIAL SPEEDOMETER: The analog, traditionally shaped round dial with large, easy-to-read digits has been integrated into the headlight.
